I have just returned from a weekend riding at 5 Saints where I went for a mini break with my daughter and we couldn't have wished for more, the horses were lovely, the food was impressive and the room was clean.
There were lovely places to ride also. The weekend was everything I wanted. I would strongly recommend going!!
