just has to share fantastic riding experience in the half term hols - as a birthday treat to myself booked all day hack in the brecon beacons for my & the small child - FANTASTIC - we galloped across mountains, saw wild ponies and cooled the horses down in mountain streams - the horses were lovely - responsive, fast but safe and it was soo nice to go out with a escort and have no real responsibilites and thought we had good hacking at home but this was at another level - we have penciled ourselves in for more mountain frolics in the next hols:):):)

Lovely :)

A few of us from here went in August, we went to Tregoyd Mountain Riders and it was fab.

What centre did you use ?

we went to LLangorse [spelling] centre - it also does climbing & zip wire so might be a good one for people who need to take non-horsey peeps with them. What is Tregoyd like cos thats much nearer my friends house & would be much more convinient.The whole experience really made me think about work loads for horses - the ones there were sooooo fit & could hack at fair speed for 4 hrs - may up the work load for the big girl - all this 60 mins every other day looks a bit light weight
