Horse Riding

We have decided to offer a variety of options to cater for beginners through to the horse mad individual / group of friends. We realise that it is almost impossible to bring your horses abroad (unless money is no issue) but the idea of galloping along an endless sandy beach or trekking below snow capped mountains is something that you have always dreamed of, then this could be your opportunity.

There are two experiences on offer

1) School based insturction to help you improve your techniques.

2) An expedition - 9 different locations and types available where you can stay out in refugees, under the stars or something a bit more luxurious.

If you're interested in a riding expedition, please contact the office and we'll arrange a date and journey to suit your ability.
