We were extremely fortunate to get a space at Valley View for the summer. Our visit was only short (home from college for the summer) but we couldn’t have wished for more in that time. Scott was excellent at communicating in the lead up to our arrival and literally as soon as we pulled in, the team were there to greet us, show us around and settle us in. The entire team were fantastic during our stay, they couldn’t have been more welcoming and knowledgeable. Nothing was too much bother, always smiling and helping us with any questions we had. They did a fantastic job of looking after the horse (and human – frustrations with a horse on recovery!). Spacious stable/areas to store kit, secure tack room, benefits of an arena, plus field with jumps and hacking route all on site. A very welcoming yard, staff and liveries all lovely, would definitely recommend!

When I needed to move my two horses from Somerset, I was pointed in the direction of VVF, and it turned out to be one of the best recommendations I’ve ever received.One of my horses has specific medical needs that require daily attention, and because I work abroad for six months of the year, finding somewhere I could completely trust with their care was essential. From my very first visit, I was impressed. Despite being a large yard, the atmosphere was incredibly calm, quiet, and relaxed. To be sure, I made a second unannounced visit during what I knew would be a particularly busy period. Once again, I was amazed at how organised and peaceful everything was, even with numerous horses moving in and out of their stables.That was 18 months ago, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. Scott and his entire team do an exceptional job every single day, regardless of the weather or season. Their dedication and standard of care are truly outstanding.The morning after my horses arrived, Aimee sent me a photo of them both lying down together in their field, completely relaxed. My horses never normally lie down at the same time, so that picture immediately reassured me that I had made the right choice.The facilities are excellent, with everything you could need, including over a mile of gallops, meaning we never have to ride on the roads. Combined with what I believe is excellent value for money, VVF offers everything I could ask for in a yard.Most importantly, I have complete peace of mind knowing my horses are safe, happy, and receiving the highest standard of care whenever I’m away. I would highly recommend VVF to anyone looking for a professional, well-run, and genuinely caring equestrian facility.

Me and my horse stayed the summer at VVE whilst home from uni and it was the best summer! I felt so confident my pony was taken care of through heatwaves to thunderstorms, and i didnt think twice about going away on holiday and leaving the amazing team in charge of my pony. We loved how friendly everyone was to go out riding with, the grass gallops, and the jumps!

We moved to Valley View a couple of months ago and have settled in fabulously! Scott and the whole team, as well as other liveries, have been so welcoming and wonderful. Our horse has settled fabulously and has a lovely new best mate to share his horsey time in the field with. We found people to hack out with straight away to get used to new surroundings and with weather improving had a super canter around the canter track today, so much fun for all involved! Looking forward to a chilled out summer at Valley View. ❤️

I recently moved my mare to Valley View and I can’t believe how quickly she settled, she is so happy and relaxed and is thriving on the routine. The stables are large and airy, the beds are the thickest beds I’ve ever seen and the hay/haylage is plentiful, my mare always has some left in the morning. The turnout is great with plenty of grass and all fields are well managed and rotated. The staff sre incredible, nothing is too much trouble and they keep you updated. They are all so approachable. Having my mare in 5 day full livery has been a game changer for us as a family and means I get to do her at the weekends which works perfectly. The school with floodlights is great meaning I can ride her after work. Thank you Valley View for making the move so easy. Can highly recommend Valley View.

All I can do is second what my daughter has said. Communication has been superbly open, everything clearly explained and queries addressed immediately. Our lad, a super sensitive, has taken to his new surroundings and change in routine brilliantly. Their handling of him is just as we would like. Thank you for making our move over to you so stress-free.

The best yard I’ve been to! Scott, Aimee, and the rest of the team are amazing! My boy has always been very anxious and needs a lot of reassurance. The staff are so unbothered by his quirks, you can tell they care about the horses (nothing is just perfunctorary), and they’ve immediately given him that much needed reassurance. He’s never settled at a yard as quickly as he has at VVE. The staff make sure each horse’s individual needs are catered to, you can tell they have the experience and knowledge to back them up, and their communication with owners is second to none. The facilities and area are exceptional, and the people are lovely too. Would recommend the lovely yard to anyone.

I can’t rate this yard highly enough. Scott, Aimee and the team are amazing and they take great pride in caring for your horses. Nothing is ever too much trouble to ask, they will make sure your baby gets any meds needed and you know they are very well looked after and loved.
Review by Jess – Mar, 2025
I couldn’t recommend Valley View highly enough! I have been with them for 9 years, which shows how much my horse and I love it there! They’re always so supportive if things aren’t quite going to plan… Their care for all the horses is second to none and the facilities are great! Floodlit school, private gallops, own storage space, hot wash/solarium the list goes on! Highly recommend, never been so happy 💗
Review by Caitlin Milne – Mar, 2025
The absolute best livery yard around for so many reasons. The facilities are fantastic meaning I can ride all year round even after work in the winter under the floodlights. The field management is brilliant meaning even in the depths of winter my mare gets a lot of turnout which she loves. The staff are all so caring treating every horse as their own, and making sure all their needs are met. My mare was on some important medication last year and the staff made sure she never missed a dose and notified me of any problems straight away. This yard is a blessing meaning I don’t have to worry about my mare at all whilst I am at work and can just enjoy spending time with her. I am very grateful to the whole team.
Review by Jenny – Mar, 2025
VVE creates such a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, which makes you really feel part of the community and staff and other liveries are really friendly. The standard of care is really high and staff go above and beyond, treating every horse as if they are their own. The facilities are great; floodlit school, set of showjumps which are on grass in the summer, round pen, grass gallops with a couple of solid jumps, village hacking, hot wash, solarium, tack room, space for individual storage, year round grazing, good sized stables and plenty of hard standing for grooming/tacking up. But the thing that really makes this yard special is the people! Don’t know what I would do without them 🙂

Valley View do the most amazing job looking after our daughter’s pony on full livery. The team can’t do enough and are always happy to help with anything and everything. Our ponies have wanted for nothing over the years whilst being in the care of Scott and his amazing team. Always a warm and friendly atmosphere, and amazing, well-kept facilities too!
Review by Kim – Mar, 2025
Valley view is an amazing place. All the staff are friendly, well trained and committed to the health and well being of all the horses and ponies they look after. The attention to detail when doing any job is of a very high standard. I would highly recommend having a visiting if you are looking at moving your horses.
Review by Niamh – Mar, 2025
I honestly couldn’t recommend Valley View highly enough. I have been with them for several years and the team have never failed to provide top quality care. They take the time to evaluate each horses needs as an individual and create an exceedingly supportive environment for both horse and rider.

Review by Tristan Thomas – Mar, 2025
Had my horse for comin up to 6 years now and I’ve not seen him settle in to a yard quick enough. He was never very good bringing on to the yard always broke free and couldn’t stand still. Because of the lovely nature and how relaxed the yard is he seems like a different horse. Everyone on the yard is lovely aswell which is a bonus happy horse happy owner!

Review by Kaitlyn Heriot Spence – Mar, 2025
I have completed my work experience on 2 occasions with Valley View Equestrian Ltd. I know they always put the horses comfort and happiness first and will do everything possible to make sure that yours and your horses requirements are met. Everyone is so kind and inviting and the yard is a lovely environment to be in.

Review by Steph – Mar, 2025
I’ve moved my horse here in 2012 and am still here so that says a lot about this livery yard. Scott, the owner and resident BHS coach puts every ounce of his passion for horses into each and every horse under his and his fantastic teams care. Aimee the yard manager goes out of her way to help and has so much knowledge. The entire team mean I don’t ever have to worry about my horse when I’m not there. Onsite facilities are great – the hot wash & solarium are a blessing in the winter!. Would highly recommend this friendly, happy yard to anyone
