Monte Velho

5 star rating   21 May 2025

Jenny who has been on 5 In The Saddle rides. A week of fabulous riding and relaxation | My third visit to Monte Vehlo and it lived up to my previous great experiences.
The horses were better than ever with some favourites still feeling lovely to ride and a range of more recent equine recruits offering great variety.
Our group of 4 were consistently well matched to horses.
We were so lucky to arrive to beautiful weather off a wet spring which made the wild flowers and landscape truly memorable.
The ethos of Monte Vehlo is a pleasure to experience.
