Rode the Coast to Coast in September - absolutely incredible. Both horses and guests excellently looked after. Incredible scenery, lovely people, and delicious food! Can't rate the riding highly enough, huge thanks to Dom and Jan for all their hard work (and excellent sense of humour!) Looking forward to going back as soon as I can.

I just returned from a working holiday. There were originally 3 people booked, but the others cancelled their plans last minute. So, I got to spend the week with Dom, Rua, the cats, chickens, donkeys and horses at the stead. It was a great balance of a few hours of work spread over the course of the day with riding either first thing or in the middle of chores to help break it up. Over the course of the week I was able to ride three different horses, Maverick, Henry and Malachi. They were all lovely and well behaved. We did a different ride each day varying from 90 min to over 3 hours. Could not have been more lucky to have such nice weather in January. It's obvious how much Dom cares for all the animals in her care and our rides included photos sent to the previous owners of the horses who loved receiving the updates. Dom is a wonderful cook and we had hearty big meals each night. We ran into town for delicious paninis one day for lunch. She provided great recommendations for a few things to check out in the surrounding areas at the end of my trip. She was also lovely company and despite it being just the two of us, around each other for most of our waking hours, it never felt boring or forced. Can't wait to return with my kiddo for a day ride

I just returned from a working holiday with Highlands Unbridled and had the best week ever! I used to ride a lot when I was younger and was a bit nervous about my skills and new horses. Dominique though was very patient and trusting so I dared to push my own bounderies. She is an expert in riding and taking care of the horses and the riders along the ride, and showed us the amazingly beautiful surroundings. The work and riding was in balance although I think she could ask for more to get done. She is a fabulous cook and I think a week working holiday is the ideal way to get back into the horsylife again and to check if you are up for a longer trip on horseback. Lovely horses, donkeys, cats, chickens and the best dog ever. I miss all of them. They are all visibly happy with the care Dominique gives. I would sign up for another week anytime!

I just returned from a working holiday with Highlands Unbridled and it was the best week of my life! The riding and the scenery were absolutely amazing. I was in the most beautiful place that I have ever been and the riding was so so good. The horses are happy and well cared for and so fun to ride. Dominique is the absolute greatest ever. She is welcoming, fun, inordinately capable and has a knack for encouraging people while keeping things safe. Dom works very very hard and is the absolute best at her job. I don't know how she puts in so much time and still is always fun, bright and energetic. I can't wait to return for a trekking adventure.

I've been wanting to do a day ride with Highlands Unbridled for some time and finally got round to doing it in March. It was simply wonderful. Rainy, cold, low visibility, but the ride was still amazing. Fantastic staff, Dom was a wonderful lead and knew the horses in and out. My pony was just gorgeous, couldn't have had a better experience. Will definitely be back again!

My daughter (age 11) and I booked a two day riding holiday staying on the farm with Dominique and could not have had a better time! The setting, stables and animals are beautiful and Dominique is a wonderful host, cook and guide. The riding was spectacular with plenty of variety, stunning scenery and beautiful lunch spots. Helping tack and brush the horses in the mornings and evenings was a great added experience. Take lots of layers and lots of photos! Highly recommended.

Such a great day ride with Highlands Unbridled. Stunning scenery, responsive horses and Dominique is a very good guide - she ensured that we were all well looked after throughout. Would highly recommend and would very happily ride with Dominique again.

We booked a day's trek during the April Easter weekend. Dominique is a great host. She was very friendly and made us all feel very welcome. Before lunch our views on the trek were limited due to the weather, but it was still really enjoyable. After lunch the clouds cleared and the views were stunning. Definitely be prepared for the weather. The whole day was great fun. The horses were in their element too. We would definitely come back and would love to do the longer treks to see parts of the country that you just don't see in a car.

I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience on the Extended Outlander ride this month. The horse were wonderful and Dom did an excellent job pairing them with the people in the group. She was a fantastic guide for our trip and we all had a wonderful time. The accommodations were perfect letting us see the quaint villages but still being very comfortable - not to mention the food was outstanding. For the tour the last three days, Jan was the perfect tour guide and could not have been more accommodating. She led us through the sites at the perfect times, always missing the big crowds. We were originally planning on taking a different trip in the years to come, but Highlands set the bar so high, we will most likely be back here again. Thank you for everything!

l was lucky enough to spend 2 days riding with highlands unbridled recently. It was everything l expected/hoped for and more. I was really nervous only having ridden a few times lately (having not done for years) but Dominique totally understood and the ponies were all so amazing. It was an unforgettable experience which l am hoping to do again as soon as l get the opportunity. Thankyou for a wonderful time!
