Sheepcote Equestrian Centre

Sheepcote Equestrian Centre, situated in Bartestree just outside Hereford, has built a long-standing reputation as a dedicated dressage training venue and stud. The centre is run by David and Serena Pincus and provides structured dressage tuition from novice level through to Grand Prix, supporting riders who are working towards progressively higher levels of competition.

Tuition is available for beginners and more experienced riders alike, with lessons delivered on site for individuals looking to develop their dressage skills. Beyond regular lessons, the centre hosts clinics and offers working pupil placements, giving riders the chance to learn in a hands-on environment alongside the daily workings of a busy equestrian centre. A horse schooling service is also available for owners wanting their horses worked by a professional, and the stud side of the business covers horse breeding alongside the sale of horses.

The facilities support year-round training. Riders have access to a large indoor arena fitted with mirrors, a viewing gallery and an integrated watering system, as well as a full size floodlit outdoor arena, also equipped with mirrors. A covered horse walker, external stables with automatic drinkers, mare and foal boxes, and a separate stallion yard cater to a range of horse keeping needs. A clipping and washing area with hot water and heat lamps, a heated drying room, secure tack rooms, paddocks and lorry parking complete the practical setup on site.

The centre lies in the West Midlands, in the Herefordshire countryside, with the postcode HR1 4DE. David Pincus holds the BHS instructor qualification, providing a recognised standard of teaching across the dressage programmes offered.
