Testimonials

Josie Ross, Oct. 20, 2018

From the moment we arrived, we both felt the tranquillity of the ranch. It's so peaceful and watching the horses freely move around in herds was just wonderful. Favourite memory - sitting on the veranda overlooking the pasture and watching a herd of horses gallop past. The rooms were spacious and comfortable. Food was excellent with a good choice. Snacks and beverages available 24 hours a day. Both our horses were perfect for our experience. All the horses looked healthy and happy. We were shown how to put on a saddle/girth but the stable staff always did the bridle

Susan & Charlotte, Oct. 11, 2018

I (Susan) tried 3 different horses before settling on Ballerina, who was great - really forward going. Charlotte rode 2 horses and fell in love with Faith, her second horse, and stuck with her because she loved her sassiness. We only went with a guide on four occasions and each one was informative, friendly and adapted the ride to ability. At first not going on any trails outside the Ranch's forest in the open and seeing some countryside off ranch was a disappointment, but was countered by being allowed in the enclosed forest on our own. There was a choice of really good food available and plenty of it. Our room was large, cool and comfortable.
