Folklore Farm is the real deal. The instructors know their stuff and take the time to match each rider with the right horse and approach. It’s professional without feeling pretentious — just good people who care about doing things the right way for both horse and rider.

The farms horses are so well looked after and matched to each rider, which makes everything safe and enjoyable. I’d definitely recommend it :)
