Day One:
There are several ways to reach our riding centre in Scotland. You can either fly into Glasgow or Edinburgh where we can arrange a transfer (both 40mins), or you can get the train to Carluke where we can arrange for you to be collected. Transfers are to be paid for directly. Alternatively you can make your own way there by car or taxi. Once there all meals are included so there is no need to go off site.
Arrive this evening in time for dinner, riding will commence tomorrow. All meals are table-served on-site at the equestrian centre. Evenings can be spent in the comfy lounge, your luxury bedroom with free WiFi, Egyptian cotton bedding and towels, complimentary tea and coffee, flat screen TV with DVD, or you can explore the local area.
Day Two:
After breakfast riding will commence with an introductory lesson. After a short assessment you will be allocated a horse suitable for your size and experience and your journey of discovery will begin. This afternoon you will be enjoying a picturesque hack along bridleways and quiet country lanes.
The content of your break will be tailored to suit your riding levels and you will discuss this upon arrival with your instructor.
Riding is usually a mixture of lessons and hacking out depending on your riding ability. Tuition and hacking out are usually intermixed with other riders to give a good balanced holiday.
All of the instructors are highly experienced and hold the British Equestrian Tourism Certificate as well as a BHS instructors certificate.
