Who are you?

Our guests should be :

• Of intermediate riding standard or higher;
• Regular riders (e.g. once or twice a week) with at least 2 years of recent regular riding, as an experienced rider;
• Confident and in control on a forward going horse at a steady to fast canter in open countryside over even to variable ground;
• Comfortable with the gaits of the horse (i.e. walk, rising trot, canter);
• In good health with a good standard of fitness and agility;
• Comfortable to ride for 4 hours per day, or sometimes more;
• Understanding of the principle "the horse comes first"

Our horses have to work hard over mountanous terrain and sometimes challenging ground, it is important (and kind to the horse) to be riding fit so that you are able to work with your horse and make its work lighter.

We are always happy to hear from child riders and we will deal with these requests on an individual basis, but as a guideline the minimum age limit is 12 years old to ensure that the child will have enough stamina to complete a 4 hour ride and to ride in an "adult" group.

We also hope that your love and appreciation for the horses will help you get the best from your ride.

This is above all a relaxed riding holiday....
