Welcome to Riseholme Country Store! This is me, Lindsay Redfern, with my daughter Tara (aka Tiggy) who works alongside me in our Country Store in Wysall. My well established and very experienced team are detailed below - you may recognise some of them - and we all look forward to meeting you!
Riseholme Country Store History...When you look at our animal supplies & country store in Wysall, on the Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire borders, it's hard to imagine that it all began in a rather modest shed twenty seven years ago!
Who would have thought that from Risesholme Feeds just selling just a few bags of horse feed all those years ago, we have just celebrated our seventh year of being at our Country Store in Wysall. Not only that, we have put on two successful Fashion Shows, three very well supported Fun Dog Shows and two Tractor Ted Roadshows, all in aid of some very worthwhile charities. Times have changed and we now have a large selection of Lifestyle & Equestrian Clothing collections for ladies and men, equestrian wear and toys for children, as well as an exceptionally high quality range of Gifts & Cards. We are still passionate about riding safety, offering a large range of riding hats, skull caps and body protectors which are expertly fitted by our trained members of staff.
We continue to offer a very comprehensive range of feeds for horses, dogs, cats, smaller pets, farm animals, poultry, game and wild birds. We are also now delighted to be part of the Bridleway Equestrian, a select group of independent retailers who have chosen an exclusive collection of equestrian products at excellent value and great quality, giving our customers even greater choice.
We offer a full range of complementary products to support our Equestrian and Livestock departments such as electric fencing & hardware, wormers, clipper servicing & blade sharpening, rug washing and mending as well as rubber stable matting, a large choice of bedding, different sizes of wheelbarrows, stable tools and ancillary equipment.
We are also proud to support Local Producers enabling us to offer a great choice of locally produced goods including cakes, potatoes (in season), free range eggs, jams and honey. We are also pleased to offer all of our customers the opportunity to sign up to our Loyalty Card Scheme which has been a great success, so please ask a member of staff for more details so you can enjoy the benefits too!
We all look forward to meeting you and will do our very best to ensure a warm welcome, along with friendly, specialist advice across all of our product ranges. Please be assured that we have full Covid-19 procedures in place to ensure that all of our customer and staff will be as safe as possible.
