Ham House Stables is a long-established riding school based on the grounds of Ham House in Richmond upon Thames. The school operates under ABRS approval and offers private lessons in classical dressage, show jumping, and groundwork, with instructors holding the ABRS Advanced Teaching Diploma and BHSII qualifications. Lessons are available for adults and children, and the school holds a five-star rating.
Riders can choose from private and semi-private riding lessons, as well as groundwork and in-hand sessions that focus on horse handling and classical training. A kids' club and holiday riding camps run during school breaks, and stable management teaching is offered alongside the ridden sessions. For horse owners, the school provides both full and working livery, and also runs an online academy with courses for remote learning.
Facilities centre on an all-weather surface outdoor arena used year round. During winter months, riders make use of an all-weather riding track at a local polo club. Hacking from the school includes access to river lands and off-road bridlepaths leading directly into Richmond Park, giving riders straightforward routes into a large area of open countryside on the doorstep.
The stables are licensed and located in Richmond, postcode TW10 7RS, within the London region. Pricing starts from GBP 55 for a 30-minute children's riding lesson with membership on a rider's own horse. Those interested in lessons, livery, or the online academy should contact the school directly to discuss availability and bookings.
