Hacking

Hacking is the perfect way to absorb the wonderful scenery of the countryside. We are set in an area of outstanding beauty,with amazing views,picturesque woodlands and rolling green hills laid out like a patchwork quilt. On a clear day you can see for miles and miles. All our hacks allow you to ride at your own comfort level.

All hacks are weather dependent. We offer hacking Tuesday to Sunday during the Spring and Summer and  Tuesdays and Fridays during the Autumn and Winter. Weekend hacking during the winter is weather reliant. 2 hour hacks are only available on a week day.  Summer evening hacks set off at around 6pm with a minimum of 2 riders.

Assessments

If you haven’t ridden with us before we will ask you to tell us about your riding experience.In the interest of horse and rider safety we will advise an assessment or a private or semi private lesson for those who are a little rusty or nervous.

What to wear

If you already own some or all of your own kit we will still ask to see the standard / condition / history / fit and wear of you hat.We hire our hats at a fee of £1.50. You will need to wear welly boots or shoes with a small heel and a little bit of grip. No open toed shoes / trainers / heavy walking boots or boots with a zip on the inside. Glove are highly recommended. Trousers / tracksuit bottoms / leggings are suitable. Jeans can really rub on the seams. You may get a little warm whilst out riding so layers are recommended. Always dress according to the weather conditions. A full riding wardrobe can be purchased from Widmer Feeds Country Store.
