We are a busy, yet friendly, Association of British Riding Schools and British Horse Society approved riding school.
We can offer the recreational rider the experience of being around horses.
Based just a few miles south west of Manchester in the Mersey valley green belt.
We are situated in 45 acres of open countryside yet still close to the motorway network.
Our facilities include an indoor school, outdoor floodlit menage, comfortable viewing facilities and cafe.
Our experienced and friendly staff can offer you riding lessons to suit all ages (upwards of 3) and abilities.
All our horses and ponies are chosen for their suitable temperament and are fully trained to ensure both the safety and enjoyment of our customers.
During the school holidays, we always offer a range of activities to both children and adults.
Check out what is available at the link above.
We also offer our very popular 'Pony Parties' and we recommend you book early.
A recent addition to the CRC offering is Urban RIDE a charitable group set up to give disadvantaged children and adults the opportunity to interact and ride horses.

Directions
By Road (from M60)
We are situated just off Junction 8 of the M60.
Once off the motorway, follow the A6144 until you come to the second crossroads.
Take the left (CRC is signposted at this junction) and follow this until you come to a left turn at the end.
A barrier prevents you from travelling further down Isherwood Rd after this turn (so you have to turn left).
Public Transport
Our farm is accessible by bus. Buses: 241, 243 and 255 run to the nearest bus stop.
It is then a 15-20 minute walk down Isherwood Rd to the farm.
Tom Tom
Alternatively, if you use a Tom Tom, our address is:
Nursery Farm,
Isherwood Rd,
Carrington,
M314BH
Please be aware that while this will bring you into our vicinity, it is not likely to bring you directly to the doorstep. Please familiarise yourself with the map before setting off.
If your child (under 16) has never ridden at Carrington Riding Centre before then he or she is entitled to a free introductory lesson in one of our lead rein classes.
