About this business
A riding school set up in 2024 on rural freehold land near Glasgow, offering lessons for children and adults, pony days and hacking. It employs 5 people. Turnover has grown each year, from £227k to £270k, but EBITDA is small at £13k, a margin of under 5%. The asking price of £35k is low against net assets of £101k. Horse care and feed take most of the income, so a buyer with equestrian experience would look at lesson pricing and how full each session is.

- Freehold land included
- Turnover up each year since 2024
- Asking price of £35k
