It is with great sadness that the heart and soul of Hillview Stables, that we all know as Pat Congdon has sadly passed away. As a family this was a huge shock and a huge hole has been left.

Please bear with us whilst we sort out the runnings of the yard, if you need to contact us please message us on our page. All lessons will continue as normal unless stated otherwise.

This is truly the end of an era as Pat was an icon and legend within the horse riding community, she achieved so much in her life with her horses and built an amazing stables where many others have found a safe place to enjoy horses and also go on to do great things with her guidance. I for one will be have a huge hole left in my heart knowing she is not by side anymore but her spirit and everything she has taught me will live on through Hillview.

She will be missed so much.

Thank you all for taking the time to read, funeral details will be posted in the near future.

Lots of love;
Shaun, Georgie & Ben ❤️❤️
