About CSP Stables
A seasonal hunter jumper pony lesson barn on Highway 6 in Lavington, offering lessons, pony sales, camps and clinics from a small Welsh pony breeding program.
CSP Stables runs a hunter jumper pony lesson barn on Highway 6 in the Lavington area of Coldstream, built around a string of ponies and one lesson horse rather than a large herd of full sized horses. Lessons run from beginner through advanced, and the barn takes both children and adults, which is somewhat unusual for an operation built specifically around pony sized mounts. Pony sales and matching families to the right pony are a particular specialty, backed by a small breeding program working with Welsh ponies.
Beyond weekly lessons, the barn runs day pony camps, clinics, and occasional trail or beach rides, along with participation in local horse shows. A pony barn built around English disciplines like hunter and jumper work is a different animal from a Western training operation, since the flatwork, jumping fundamentals and show format all follow their own conventions, so families new to English riding are generally walked through the basics rather than expected to arrive knowing them.
The barn operates seasonally, typically from March through November depending on weather, rather than running as a year round facility. Contacting the barn ahead of a visit is worth doing regardless, since the pony string and available lesson slots can shift between seasons. Questions about lesson availability, pony camps or the current breeding stock can go to [email protected] or 250-540-6883.
