Cross county schooling, a great riding experience...
For riders looking for something more energetic, our Cross Country riding experiences are ideal. Each session lasts 2 hours and includes a light lunch. You’ll be tutored in a mixture of easy skills to the more challenging hunter trials and there are regular friendly competitions which are great fun and provide the opportunity to put your skills to practice against other riders
We have a selection of well mannered hunters and ex-competition horses available and our staff are all experienced riders. Cross country rides are on private land and involve gallops and jumps to really put you through your paces!
This is a great way to get some practise in before attempting our drag hunt!!
