My friends and I went on a week-long holiday here recently and were blown away by the friendliness of everyone on site. Everyone is welcoming and friendly, take excellent care of you even if you are nervous on horseback and make everything you do enjoyable. The horses are sweet and good-natured, though for more experienced riders there is provision for a more challenging horse. We found the assessment of our individual abilities spot on, and despite wildly disparate riding abilities within our group, all of us came away feeling challenged. The lessons here are well-structured and take you through basic riding skills to more challenging technical work - we had a fun lesson based around leg-yielding! We helped out as much as possible with horse-care, though we were made aware that it was optional, so if you'd rather just ride that's fine.
Attention was paid to our every need, and the meals provided were wonderful. The only slight criticism (and it really is a minor one) is that the beds were slightly lumpy, but after a full day of riding you really don't notice!!
