The Riding
The Accommodation
Do you have any comments about the accommodation and food?
Perhaps a fridge in the rooms to keep drinks cool- it was very hot! Food was very good, even for fussy vegetarians! I like variety so this goes a long way, along with quality of riding
Before Your Holiday
Did you have all of the information you needed to:
How could we improve the quality of pre-holiday information that we send?
Nothing. Great to receive whole info booklet in leather wallet to keep, plus courtesy calls before we went
Do you have any other feedback for us?
The area is so stunning and peaceful and unspoilt, with far reaching views inc lovely mares & foals. I can see why many return as this definitely adds to the holiday, especially as a keen nature lover!
Zoe who has been on 4 In The Saddle rides. Fabulous!! | It was fabulous to fulfill my dream of riding a Lusitano stallion! I had an hour lesson every morning, with one lovely hack as extra on one of days.. then I could explore surrounding area with non riding husband and hire car, or relax in afternoons!
The instructors were very knowledgeable and all the horses were amazing! It was also great to see their Olympic dressage rider ride and train! Horsey heaven!
