Pathhead Farm

Kirriemuir, Angus

Pathhead Farm sits just outside Kirriemuir in Angus and operates under the name Kinfauns Stables, a self-funded Riding for the Disabled charity. Riders of all ages and abilities are welcome, with lessons structured around therapeutic riding, horse care sessions and short pony rides. The minimum donation for a fifteen-minute pony ride starts at GBP 10, helping to keep the centre accessible to local families and groups.

The school teaches complete beginners and children, and works with disabled and non-disabled participants on an equal footing. Group lessons cover basic horsemanship, while dedicated disabled riding lessons are run by RDA-trained coaches. Holiday clubs run during school breaks, and the team also hosts birthday parties with a private party room available for celebrations.

Facilities include both an indoor arena and an outdoor ring, allowing lessons to continue through poor Scottish weather, plus an outdoor track for longer rides and groundwork. A heated viewing room lets family members watch sessions in comfort, and there are disabled toilet facilities on site. The "Tea with a Pony" experience offers a relaxed introduction to horses for younger visitors or those who may be nervous around larger animals.

Pathhead Farm is a member of the Riding for the Disabled Association, and all therapeutic sessions follow RDA guidelines. The postcode for sat-nav users is DD8 5BY, with the yard located a short drive from Kirriemuir town centre. Visitors are advised to contact the charity directly to arrange visits, book lessons or enquire about upcoming holiday club dates and party availability.
