About The Grove
Run by Julie and David Bond since 2010, with a riding school here for over 30 years.
Our story
There has been a riding school here for over 30 years, and before that a dairy farm. The school was originally set up by Maddie McKenzie Wallace, a founder member of High Wycombe Riding Club and a big supporter of Riding for the Disabled. Maddie inspired Julie, who learnt to ride here under her, as did many of the parents of our customers today.
We are fully licensed by Wycombe District Council, with an annual DEFRA-led inspection of facilities and horse welfare, and we are an approved member of the Association of British Riding Schools.
