Sierra Nevada - Spain

Sulayr Ride

5 star rating   16 October 2024

Debbie who has been on 2 In The Saddle rides. Scenery I had only dreamed of seeing! | The riding was exactly as described! Very challenging terrain - the horses were incredibly well schooled and very sure footed - I would not have believed we could have negotiated the paths that we did.

Mainly slower paced for obvious reasons but some lovely canters at times as well. Just superb!

Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?

The accommodation was very relaxed with a buffet breakfast. Plenty of choice and we had the guest house in Bubion to ourselves which was lovely as a way to get to know the other riders.

How could we improve the quality of pre-holiday information that we send?

I left too much time on arrival - may be more helpful to say aim for flights arriving into Malaga before 4.30pm as they were very quick sorting out the luggage etc and I would have been less stressed about getting there so much earlier!


How could we improve the way we handled your booking and payment?

It was all handled very well.

It may have been easier to say that local transfer money etc will be handled by Dallas after arrival as I was worried who I was paying - now it’s obvious as only Jeanette doing the transfers I think!


Do you have any other feedback for us?

This was an amazing experience!

Dallas so obviously loves and looks after her horses to the highest standard. They were a pleasure and privilege to ride.

The ride was very well organised and we were always kept informed what we would be doing and when.

I didn’t really believe that the photos of the ride would be fully realistic but they were! The most stunning mountain scenery - unforgettable!

[In The Saddle - thank you for your lovely feedback - I am so pleased that you enjoyed your holiday. Lucy]
