Lee Valley Riding Centre

Student noteYou can actually learn to ride horses in London at Lee Valley Riding Centre, which has both indoor and outdoor arenas. Beginners should book the Have a Go taster lesson first, and helmets and boots are provided for free. Slots go fast since they only release the next two weeks' bookings every Tuesday, so book early or you'll miss out. No photos allowed during indoor lessons, so don't pull out your phone.
