Our exclusive and personal riding holidays ensure small classes and plenty of individual attention. With our fabulous schoolmasters to ride we will soon have you jumping courses in great style & even doing perfect flying changes!
The majority of instruction during the summer months takes place in the mornings for the benefit of horse and rider, with an average of two hours riding per day, though extra tuition can be arranged.
Before their move to the South West of France, Jackie & Johnny owned and managed a large riding school and stud in Hampshire for 15 years, they still breed horses though on a much smaller scale - latest foal, Sabrina, can be seen at foot with mother Partouche.
Johnny Harris
is a BSJA accredited coach and professional show jumper who has competed very successfully at an International level.
Between coaching sessions both in France and the U.K Johnny competes regularly on our young horses, most of which are homebred.

We have just the thing for you!
For Beginners & Restarters our riding holidays will give you the opportunity to try horse riding at the same time as enjoying a relaxing break in this lovely part of France.
Just over an hours flight from the UK & you could be here - just 40 minutes from beautiful Bordeaux - catching the sun & chilling out by the swimming pool or tasting the fabulous local food & wine!
We introduce you to the horses at your own pace - learn to handle, groom & ride a gentle, well mannered horse (or pony!) with an instructor guiding you all the way.
The 'horsey part' takes place in the mornings (not too early - you are on holiday!) and then after lunch you have plenty of time to relax, swim, stroll round our practise golf holes or hire a car & venture out.
There are many wonderful places to visit in this region of course, our local area is packed with Chateaux & vineyards - the world famous St Emilion is just 15 minutes away!
