Riding holidays
We have 10 Campolino and Mangalarga-Marchador horses (a Brazilian breed), known for their gentle "marcha" (comfortable trot, similar to the tölt), as well as for their good-tempered and patient disposition.
We offer riding lessons for both beginners and advanced riders. These include horse grooming, saddling and longe lessons as well as cross-country excursions. Beginners are carefully trained on how to manage the horses and after a few lessons, they can take part in excursions. Each guest is entitled to a free hour's riding lesson per week (non-transferable bonus).
We have a wide range of options for guests who are predominantly interested in horse riding: half or full day excursions to interesting destinations - including the sea (two and a half hours by horse) and waterfalls, the lagoon, mountains...
We also offer riding holiday packages and a combination of riding and excursion packages. We can tailor these to suit whatever excursion you have planned – just ask us for details.
Our animals are raised at the 10-hectare farmland. The horses have free rein on the vast meadow areas, and they come to feed in the sheltered area twice a day.
There is a round pan for longing and training horses, a tack room, as well as a grooming and washing area.
