Holiday Specials


Do you want more than just a riding holiday? Then why not consider one of our special riding weeks. Throughout the year we organise riding holidays with that little bit extra added in. These weeks include our usual superb riding as well as taking advantage of special events that happen in our locality.

Riding and Culture Weeks


Organised for various weeks throughout the year this holiday includes superb riding and takes in the history and culture that the area is famous for. After riding we will take you to famous cities and places as follows;

Cadiz - The oldest continuously inhabited city in the Iberian Peninsula. The city boasts an old town characterised by its narrow streets connecting into magnificent squares, City Walls, Cathedral, an eighteenth century watchtower and an ancient Roman theatre.

Vejer - One of the famous 'Pueblos Blancos'. It contains ancient churches and convents, and the architecture of many of its houses recalls the period of Moorish rule.

Vaquera Riding - An optional visit to a Spanish Picadero to try out the Spanish style of riding.

Jerez - A non riding day where you visit the Royal Andalusian School of Equestrian Art. After lunch there is time to take in the superb architecture of the town.

Bolonia - Has a beautiful bay and an ancient Roman town called Baelo Claudia. First settled 2,000 years ago the town was abandoned in the 6th century.

Shopping trip - On the last afternoon we visit the shopping village at Bahia Sur. A chance to buy souvenirs or that Spanish leather bag you always wanted.

Horse Racing at Sanlucar in August


With it's first race being run in 1845 Sanlucar de Barremeda is home to the oldest horse race in Spain, and one of the oldest in Europe. As well as history this race is also very special and unique as the race course is the beach at the mouth of the river Guadalquiver. Run over 1,800m the races are a thrilling spectacle where racehorses thunder across the sand watched by a large noisy crowd of spectators. There is nothing amateur about this event and you can expect to see spectator stands, bookmakers, paddocks and of course the winners enclosure. Races are run during two periods in August, the 7th to the 9th and the 19th to 21st.

During your weeks riding holiday we will spend a day visiting the Royal Spanish Riding School at Jerez in the morning. After lunch we will then travel to Sanlucar to watch the evening horse racing.
