Saddle retailer and fitters providing friendly knowledge and expertise throughout Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Dorset.

Why Saddle Fitting Is Important

Saddle fitting is crucial to the welfare and performance of any ridden horse. At the time of purchase, your Society of Master Saddlers Saddle Fitter will recommend the saddle most suitable for both you and your horse. However, a horse can have fluctuations in its body shape that means the saddle will need adjusting to maintain performance levels. When checking your existing fitted saddle, our team of saddle fitters will also perform the basic safety checks on the saddle to prevent any injury to horse or rider.

Nutwell Saddlery is a Society of Master Saddlers Master Saddler Retail, which means that our premises have been inspected by The Society of Master Saddlers and we have a Master Saddler working on the premises. This means that the knowledge of the team and the level of professional service you receive, is of the highest standard.

We are the approved stockist for high quality saddles from a number of leading manufacturers. These include Albion, Fairfax, Frank Baines, Kent & Masters, Thorowgood, Wintec and more.

As well as making sure your saddle is the best possible fit for you and your horse, many of the saddles can be customised to your liking – whether that’s by adding a splash of colour, a special finish to the leather or other accessories.

Appointments: At our Purpose-Built Facilities or at Your Yard

Saddle fitting appointments are available at our premises or our saddle fitters will come to your yard.

Our superb saddle fitting facilities include a purpose-built saddle studio as well as two indoor stable’s with work stations to assist with all the fitting and repair services needed at your appointment.

This has direct access to our beautiful indoor arena, that is complete with a superb Martin Collins surface, that means the fit of your saddle can be thoroughly checked and tested in all weather.

We also offer a mobile service. A discount is available for five or more saddle fittings or checks, booked on the same day, at the same yard. Please get in touch for more information.
