“Went today for the 2.5 hour ride with wine tasting. It was brilliant! The girls who led the trail were so friendly and the horses were so well behaved! I was paired with Taz and she was a diamond, so sure footed and I felt completely safe on her, she had the best spirit and I loved her! My partner is a beginner and was teamed up with Jersey and he loved the experience too! The other participants in the group were friendly and the views were amazing! I will definitely be coming back but for a more experienced trail ride as I’d love to be able to do a little more! I just wish I’d gotten more photos of the horses! Thank you so much for the experience today! I had a smile on my face the whole way up and down the mountain! You really do have the Dream job and your horses are absolute stars!”

“Today's 2.5hr trail ride was memorable. A gift for my husbands birthday that I got to enjoy with him. Abby and Sam were the most amazing leaders. They were both so passionate for horses and their job. Some riders were pretty nervous and they made them feel comfortable and safe. The sun was shining for our trail ride. The girls loved answering all of our questions and had so much experience and confidence. Thank you for the perfect Sunday afternoon. We miss Grover and Yoda already. Such beautiful horses. Nick and I are planning to book the 2 day 90 mile Beach trail. Thank you so much x”

“I absolutely love this experience. Stunning views. Beautiful people and the wine and crackers at the hut was such a nice touch. I would definitely go back here again. The team are so lovely and so we're the horses. The big man Jersey (horse) such a sweet boy. Gave my Man from Snowy river vibes.”
