Reviews
"All of the helpers were so friendly and knowledgeable, gave great encouragement and instruction. A really fun experience."
"Amazing place where I brought my six year old grandson who has additional needs and was looked after and cared for so well. Staff, helpers and of course the horses were all fantastic. I cannot recommend this place highly enough. A must when visiting Westport"
"Not sure where the previous 1 star review came from - but I think that it’s very irresponsible to make statements like the horses aren’t fed because the staff are too lazy!!!!! I have been coming here with my daughter every week for the last 18 months and I have witnessed the horses being fed, washed, brushed, groomed and well cared for. Horses are rotated for different lessons. A lot of the horses go on their ‘holidays’ for the summer to give them a break. I have NEVER seen any emaciated horses. The stables are open for anyone to walk through and see. There is always food and water out and the animals and their areas are clean. A lot of damage can be done to a business by incorrect statements without supporting facts. Where are the pictures of these emaciated horses??. I wonder was the owner/manager approached to discuss any concerns I for one would have no concerns about how these animals are treated and cared for."
"Great walk, brilliant views. Well worth the trip! Medium level of fitness required to reach the summit."
"Couldn't praise the staff enough. We had a group of 10 kids and 2 big kids and had the best experience yet on horses. Can't recommend it high enough and we will definitely be back"
