Children must be able to walk, trot & canter competently as our programme for the week includes a lot of hacking in open countryside and we do some x-country or showjumping for the more experienced, even if you haven't jumped much we will teach you at you your own standard so everyone gets a go.
You will stay in our en suite accommodation. Excellent home cooked food, all tastes are catered for vegetarian or otherwise. Horses & ponies range from 13.3hh - 16hh, so we are sure to have a horse to suit you all.....
Come and look after a horse/pony for a week (or two) exciting programme of rides through beautiful countryside & down quiet country lanes.
Learn about horse care & practical stable management, everything from the basics of grooming & tacking up to learning about rugging up your horse and applying different bandages. We also provide you with a personal stable management folder as a souvenir and as a record of your achievement whilst here at Five Saints, containing all your notes, quizzes and showday results.
Novice X-Country jumping in one of our fields at the farm if you have
jumping experience, or alternatively have a show jumping lesson in our
outdoor arena. If the weather does not allow us to jump in the field we
will do some showjumping in the school. Follow

the lap of honour in the X-country competition.

Midweek we will take a day off to go to the beach at the lovely bay of Llangrannog where we will have an evening Beach BBQ or picnic.
We end the week with a Show Day Finale with rosettes & special show champion award, competitions include a trail hunt race, handy pony (obstacle course on horseback) & gymkhana games. Another highlight of the week is our marshmallow party on your last evening of the week (weather permitting), sit around the open fire, toasting marshmallows - yum!
