"Natural
Horsemanship" does this mean that I will have to ride without a saddle
or bridle?
Not at all, Natural Horsemanship is based on
developing trust and understanding, this is acheived on the ground
before you venture on board. Riding without a saddle and bridle is the
ultimate level of understanding between horse and rider. Here we do not
expect you to do anything you did not feel completely at ease with.

What items of
clothing shall I bring with me?
This is a family run establishment and we like to
create a relaxed informal atmosphere, whatever you would wear around
horses at home and feel comfortable in, is fine. Bear in mind that it
can get really hot here in the summer months and sunglasses and suntan
lotion would be advisable.
Bring a hard hat or helmet with you, sensible boots and comfortable
light weight leisure wear. Remember to pack your swimwear for the pool,
which is heated outside the summer months.
Occasionally it does rain so it may be wise to pack a light raincoat.
