Sue
Proprietor
"My grandparents introduced me to horses at a local show in Kenilworth. From then on riding lessons became the highlight of my week. After getting married and moving to Bulby I rekindled my passion for horses and was introduced to the world of eventing. The smell of horses, hay and leather always evokes happy childhood memories."

"I grew up at Bulby as a Saddle Club Member and haven't stopped being potty about ponies since!
Since becoming a part of the Bulby team in 2017 I have achieved my BHS Stage 3 and BHS Stage 2 Coach and my PC AH Test.

"Daughter of owner, Sue, I have been very lucky to grow up at Bulby. Many of the lovely ponies that I learned to ride on, who fuelled my passion for horses and eventing, are still with us today.
I have been supported hugely by the yard in obtaining my Pony Club A Test, BHS AI and BHS Stage 4, and love sharing knowledge, teaching and watching clients progress.
After an MPhil at Cambridge and a new job in investment, I am more a friendly face, social media whizz and yard advisor than coach."

"Having learnt to ride at 4yrs old horses have always been my first love. My passion is dressage having competed a number of horses up to PSG. Training young horses and breeding is one of my favourite things about working in the world of horses. And teaching clients to achieve what they think is an unachievable goal always makes my day."
