Horse Riding

For ages 7-17

The perfect taster course for all beginners and intermediate riders looking to experience life in the saddle, this activity offers an exciting equine adventure that includes expert riding tuition, horse safety, stable management, how to look after the horses, feeding, nutrition, grooming and of course the most important - mucking out!

THE ACTIVITIES

Campers will visit off-site stables each morning and spend up to 2 hours a day in the saddle. Jumping will be taught at the discretion of the tutor and based on the level of skills displayed by individual riders throughout the week. All campers will then take part in a Gymkhana event held at the end of week, with some (where appropriate) also trying their hand at Dressage. The remainder of the holiday time will be spent mixing with the rest of the campers, trying out all of the other exciting adventure activities available that week as part of their multi-activity holiday.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

All the riding instructors we use are accredited by the British Horse Society and all equipment (including the appropriate safety helmets) is included in the price. Campers must however bring their own appropriate footwear with a small heel support (not wellies). A 12.5st/80kg weight limit is in place for this activity.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

You can add Horse Riding to your multi-activity holiday for a supplement of £190 per week.
