I went for a ride here and had a wonderful time, I got equipped with a safety hat and then set off on a well trained beautiful horse called Inca.

Took my three daughters to go on a trail ride. Jane was very welcoming and reassuring. The horses were beautiful and very well trained and the kids had a fantastic time being accompanied through the Andalucian country side. Jane also explains how to care for the horses and is very educative in her approach. A special day out. More
