In the Riding School we take children from 3years old and have good facilities for teaching - 15acres of grassland riding, two all weather floodlit rubber surfaced schools, gymkhana lanes and showjumps. Pupils are prepared for ABRS Progressive Riding and Stable Management Tests and we organise lectures, course days, fun days, and competitions in school holidays. Each year we have an annual prizegiving and party in November in which pupils receive awards for highest pass marks in tests or most improvement in their age groups etc. This event raises money for BBC Children in Need. Our pupils also Carol sing at Christmas for the local Chapel, and we have an ongoing collection of used Postage stamps for Bransby Home of Rest for Horses at Lincoln. In 2003 Willow Farm was a finalist in the Lincolnshire and Rutland Business Awards, and the East Midlands Winner of the National Access Awards. In 2005/6 we were winners of the Best Tourism Experience Gold Award at the Enjoy England Excellence Awards - East Midlands Tourism.
