No french house would be a home without a donkey. Ours is Montie. He was rescued from slaughter and is now companion to our horses.
We are not a riding school, although guest with suitable riding experience can take advantage of our horses and the wonderful rides that the area has to offer. Horse riding is not for everyone, there are weight and size restrictions for adults, and inexperienced children should come and have a sit on the horses and see how they manage before going out on a ride. Ask for advice.
Horses and horse riding can be dangerous. Any activity you choose to do with the horses is done so at your own risk.
We are very flexible and are happy to let novice or beginners have a try at riding.
