  • We want you to have a safe but enjoyable adventure. Our horses are not “plodders”, and we work hard to match the right horse to you. If we deem the whole group’s ability to be sufficient, then there may be the opportunity for short trots and canters on the rides. However, anyone causing disruption and jeapordising the safety and enjoyment of the group will be removed from the trek.
  • Please park at the bottom of the driveway unless you have and are experienced at driving a four wheel drive vehicle.

Notes for the Beach Ride:

Our beach ride suits all abilities, but is especially enjoyable for those with riding experience who may wish to gallop along the sands.
However, we are at the mercy of the tides, and can only go within a 3 hour boundary of low tide.
