Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?
Accomodation was beautiful - I stayed at one of the casa which was clean and. had everything I need (nice room, private bathroom and full kitchen). The estate itself was gorgoes - I love the pear trees, vineyards, beautiful gardens and lovely pool. Food was plentiful and cooking was family style. I was very well fed with absolutely delicious and nourishing.

Owner Rita was extremely welcoming and made me feel home from the moment of arrival. Love her passion for horses and hospitality. Staffs (from reception, cooking to housekeeping) were all friendly and helpful. Shout out to the amazing riding instructors especilally João. I felt very much like staying home with family for the week. Would definitely want to return again.
Lorraine (this is their first In The Saddle holiday) Wondering riding holiday in a gorgeous estate | Well-trained horses that caters to various levels. As a novice rider, I learnt a great deal while having a lot of fun. Instructor João was excellent - encouraging, provides precise cues while keeping me relaxed. He knows the horses well and started me off with a gentle calm horse, and subsequently picking the right horse who each taught me different skills. Within just a week, not only did I improve my lateral movement, canter transitions, contact and suppleness, I tried many new movements for the first time - piaffe, passage, half-pass, spanish walk etc.
Gorgeous and well-maintained stables, both indoor and semi-outdoor. Lovely room with glass window for watching the actions even when you are not riding.
