Peace of mind
Your safety and the horses' wellbeing
Wellbeing
Our horses live as a herd, in semi-freedom, with proper feeding and respectful handling at all times. Riding at the walk — open to everyone, with no physical or mental overload on our horses — lets us show you a different side of the horse world: no stress, no scares, no tension. Horses being horses, connecting with people.
Safety
We work with horses chosen for their calm, reliable temperament — a character we reinforce through careful, consistent training based on listening and respect. Helmets are mandatory on every activity (we provide them), groups are small, and an experienced guide leads every ride.
“Our goal is for horses and people to enjoy every experience together”
Real experiences
What guests who have ridden with us say
“The ride we enjoyed was exceptional without a doubt. Before setting off we had a short introductory class — essential for getting to know the horses and understanding how to handle things properly for the animals' sake. We then enjoyed an unforgettable ride through equally fantastic landscapes. The rain only added to our sense of wellbeing.”
— Sergio Lorenzo Garrido“A spectacular family day with a horse ride — none of us had ever done it before. Thank you to Mar, Sara and their team for making us fall in love with the place and the activity. We stayed in the As Patacas room, carefully prepared to the last detail, and enjoyed a homemade breakfast in a beautiful setting. We'll definitely be back.”
— Javier Velasco Lorenzo“Set in a natural environment perfect for switching off, this farm stands out for its charming, attentive staff who are passionate about horses. The animals — healthy, happy and well cared-for — are a testament to the love they receive. We enjoyed a fun horse ride around the area, suitable for all levels (it was our first time). An experience we would wholeheartedly recommend.”
