At Carrington Riding Centre we offer a special kind of party for your child's special day. We understand how important it is to make your child's birthday party as memorable and enjoable as possible. We offer a unique experience for all children in a safe and friendly environment. Our Pony parties include a 1/2 hour riding lesson, 1/2 stable management session where each child gets to interact our ponies (grooming etc) and the use of our cafe area for the children to enjoy a selection of tasty goodies! If you prefer, you are very welcome to use our kitchen facilities and cater the party yourselves. Each child will receive a voucher to return for a free introductory lesson!
