Gallop
There is also a gallop for hire which is a great way to keep your horse fit and well exercised. This all weather facility allows you to walk, trot or canter whatever the conditions summer or winter, so whether there's hard ground, it's wet, frosty or snowy you can enjoy your horse. Set on a slight slope, this circuit helps to create fitness, balance and muscle for both you and the horse!
The 3.5 mile farm ride takes you across 250 acres of beautiful, rolling Cheshire countryside. The River Dean provides a variety of water obstacles which can be negotiated or avoided, depending on your ability and confidence. Throughout the ride there are over 40 natural fences, many with a novice, intermediate and advanced element so that cross country schooling can be done over smaller fences to build confidence, or the larger fences to test ability.
The farm ride is available throughout spring, summer and autumn as the ground allows. Please call in advance to make a booking so that we can ensure you get the most from your time on the ride.
