Accompanied rides lasting 90 minutes for beginners or experienced riders. 45 minutes of baby-pony activity for children aged 2 and over. Sessions last for 90 minutes: 30 min. preparing the horse or pony then 1 hour trekking through the dunes, Brighton pinewood and on the beach.

We have several breeds of horses and ponies with different coats. They live together as a group in a paddock. Families have evolved and friendships between animals. Observing their behaviour can be very rewarding, from the point of view of equine ethology. Activities supervised by fully qualified instructor.
