Dovecote Stables

Chard, Somerset

Sam Twyman
Small, specialist riding school offering high quality schoolmaster, flat-work and lunge lessons on beautiful PRE Andalusians. Friendly, expert instruction to individuals and pairs, and to small groups via clinics in summer months.

Our Spanish schoolmasters and Friesians are carefully selected for temperament and for their high level of training. Better than any simulator for true 'feel', and a joy to ride. Video and photographic feedback provided at the clinics, with workshop sessions and the opportunity to bring your own horse to work with alongside the schoolmaster lessons - see how quickly you improve.

Fabulous location in the beautiful Blackdown Hills, with great B & B accommodation nearby; easily located for Taunton, Yeovil and Exeter. Top quality 60m x 30m school. Livery on site.

Sam Twyman is a professional dressage rider and coach who has worked alongside many international riders and trainers, most recently running Overdale Equestrian Centre, the UK base for Mary 'Ride With Your Mind' Wanless.
