Recommendations for Riding Schools in Surrey - Guildford / Godalming area

Looking for any good recommendations from locals for a good place I can take dd1 to learn to ride. She's had a few lessons at one place and can just about do rising trot on her own off lead rein. However, having riddien extensively myself when I was younger, I am less convinced about their teaching and general safely standards - all things child and pony related.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not being over protective here...bI just have my limits and I don't want to put dd1 at extra risk (over and above the fact that she's riding a pony) unneccessarily.

Have looked on the BHS approved list and there are a couple of options, but recommendations are always very helpful.

My friends dd rides at a yard in Littleton Lane, Worplesdon, and loves it.

The only place I know of that I think is great is Langshot Equestrian but they are in Chobham so maybe a bit too far out for you?

My daughter rides at the Holistic Horse & Pony Centre in Ockham, which is about 20 mins down the A3 from Guildford. They are great with kids and teach them horse care too - eg, they groom and help tack up before they ride, help untack afterwards etc. Plus they have lots of pony days and activities in the holidays. Dd loves it there.
Greenways in Eashing is also good but is more conventional in that you turn up, ride and go home.
