Horses
We have 27 horses including Irish sport horses, draught horses, thoroughbreds and ponies.
The horses range from the 'Baby-sitters' & 'Flying Armchairs' for the more novice or nervous rider, to typical spirited Irish hunters who provide more of a challenge for the experienced rider.
Our horses’ welfare is of paramount importance to us. Our aim is to provide an extremely high level of care to our horses and we work with a number of key suppliers including an equine chiropractor, equine dentist, farrier and vet.
All horses will be groomed and tacked up prior to the arrival of the guests. We do try and change the horses on a daily basis, but if a guest would like to ride a particular horse, we do try to accommodate this although cannot be guaranteed.

Staff
Qualified instructors up to B.H.S.I.I. lead the cross-country rides and teach all levels, making sure that everyone can make the most of their holiday with sympathetic instruction or just the right amount of encouragement for the rider who does not want 'formal tuition'.

Facilities
The Estate is nestled on 1,000 acres of undulating Irish countryside, dotted with ancient woodlands and glittering lakes. There are 21 miles of meandering bridleways on the Estate with natural and man-made obstacles spread over a wide area. In addition, riding on adjacent farmland and a competition course is available with a large number of fences to suit all levels.
The riding center is BHS, SJI & AIRE approved and has a mechanical horse for beginners.
Facilities include an indoor arena (50×30 meter) with indoor cross-country fences, a dressage ring (20 × 50 meter), an outdoor arena (30 x 20 meter) and a horse walker.



Passport and Visa Requirements: Passport valid for at least three months beyond length of stay required by all except:(a) 1. persons born in the UK travelling direct from the UK (applicable to British passport holders only).Note: Wh. more
