Laris Farm

Positive and supportive environment for horse riding enthusiasts of all levels.

Located in the picturesque Chobham area of Surrey, Laris Farm offers a wide range of services and experiences. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced rider, our professional and friendly team is committed to providing the highest quality of instruction, training, and care for both horse and rider.

Laris Farm is owned and operated by Beacon Equestrian LLP, a partnership formed by Nay Rathmell and Betsy Irwin. Nay Rathmell, the Yard Manager and Rider, has a wealth of experience in the equestrian world. Starting riding as a child, Nay's talent was quickly recognised, and she was offered an apprenticeship, eventually training as a top-level event rider. As an adult, Nay decided to specialise in Showjumping and has excelled in this discipline ever since.

Betsy Irwin, the Licence Holder and Chief Instructor, has a diverse background in riding. Growing up on her family farm, she participated in pony club events and excelled in eventing and show jumping. However, an opportunity to train at an international dressage yard and training centre changed her path. Achieving her BHSAI at a young age, Betsy discovered her true passion lies in helping others achieve their goals in riding.

At Laris Farm, we offer a variety of services to cater to the needs of our clients. From private and group lessons to specialised training programmes, we strive to tailor our approach to suit each individual's goals and abilities. Our school horses are well-trained and well-cared for, ensuring a safe and enjoyable experience for both beginner and advanced riders.

In addition to our regular lessons, we also offer Pony Days, where children can immerse themselves in the world of horses. These immersive experiences allow children to learn about horsemanship, grooming, and riding in a fun and educational way.

At Laris Farm, we believe in fostering a sense of community among our riders. We encourage our clients to support and learn from each other, creating a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. Whether you are looking to ride recreationally, compete in shows, or simply enjoy the companionship of horses, Laris Farm is the perfect place to further your equestrian journey.

We invite you to come and experience the beauty and tranquilly of Laris Farm for yourself. Our team is ready to welcome you and help you achieve your equestrian goals, regardless of your level of experience. Contact us today to book your first session and join our vibrant community of horse lovers.
