Out in the cold on a bright February morning is no place for a woman of creature comforts like…read moremyself, but I'm willing to make an exception if that morning is spent at this excellent equestrian centre. Spacious, well maintained and with in-and-outdoor riding rings, this is the place to go for introductions, refreshers or Olympic-grade riding lessons. Each grouping is managed well by centre staff and experienced students -watching a group of under-tens take their first few trots around an indoor ring, I was delighted by the positive encouragement of the instructor (and the high level of safety -lead holders for every horse waiting to help, protective vests and helmets all around... I don't remember all that in my horse camps!). Prices for adult instruction hover around the €30 mark. €32 for an assessment and a prepay 12 lesson package comes to about €27 per session. Kids Pony Play 40 minute sessions are just €20 and can be scheduled lesson by lesson - a great way to get a kid in the saddle without committing to more sessions than they might want. The centre isn't just for instruction though, and a brisk trade in horse-themed parties, day camps, shows and other horse-related activities. The community that's grown up around the venue is positively encouraged with canteen and cafe facilities, outdoor areas for picnics, plus an open and spotless livery barn where horses and ponies are stabled between riding sessions (and always appreciative of a well-mannered hello and gift of apples or hay). In better weather I'll be up here with boots and helmet on, till then I'll huddle on the sidelines!

The stable managers were very helpful in matching horse to rider and helping with getting on. I was very happy to have the extended ride and the trek was worth it! The route was super muddy because of rain earlier in the night. For about half the trip, we didn't have an exact path and wove through the forest/countryside. The horses were definitely exhausted by the end of our journey, but continued to respond fairly well to requests.

We really enjoyed Sunday. Thank-you to all of the friendly team and dedicated management for making our time so much fun.

During the last 15 years, my childhood, teenage years and now early 20's have been sculpted by the amazing experiences I have had with the other riders at the school, the instructors, the staff and of course the incredible horses and ponies.

An undefinable amount of care and attention goes into each horse and pony every day, and only the most dedicated staff are present at any given time.
