Horsemanship, Vaulting and Riding Lessons. Whether you’re new to riding, are looking to expand your knowledge we can equip you with tools you need.
Holistic Horse Experiences – learn while you ride
We offer riders of all experience levels opportunities to learn more about the foundations of good horsemanship whilst experiencing stunning coastal scenery on horseback. With a focus on teaching light and balanced riding, our guided holistic horse riding experiences are so much more than just a trail ride.
Our professionally guided horse treks provide a safe and fun environment to further your riding knowledge, build confidence and challenge yourself.
Fun and engaging vaulting sessions for all ages
Vaulting is often described as a combination of dancing and gymnastics on horseback and is considered to be the safest equestrian discipline.
We’ve seen time and time again how transformational the sense of confidence and self awareness gained by finding your balance and expression on horseback has on individuals of all ages and particularly for kids and Baerbel is passionate about sharing this magic with others.
No previous experience is required for this fun and engaging activity.
Comfortable accommodation options to guarantee a good night’s sleep after your day of exploring.
Enjoy a family & pet friendly environment in our 120 year old eco friendly farmhouse and horse ranch, or park up in one of our camping spaces!
Facilities include: Pizza Oven, Communal Kitchen, Showers, Rope Swing, Climbing Wall, Fruit Trees, Vegetable Garden and much much more.
Fun camps and riding days
Our multiday Hack Camps and our Hack Club days are the perfect introduction to the foundations of communication with your horse both on the ground and in the saddle. We help riders of all ages find confidence around horses, both in the saddle and on the ground utilizing Vaulting Experience, Horsemanship Lessons and Horse Rides all situated at our Hack Farm.
