ITINERARY

Day 1

Aim to arrive at Combeleigh farm late morning to noon giving time to un-box and settle horses. After a light lunch at the farm, tack-up and head out for our first ride. On our return, after settling your horses we will give a short demonstration on 2 or 3 basic but highly useful flexibility techniques, after which we will transport you to the Wheddon Cross and your accommodation. Here you will have time for a bath/shower and change before we pick you up for an evening meal and glass of wine back at Combeleigh. This will allow you to see how your horses have settled into their lodgings before we convey you back to yours.

Day 2

We will pick you up after you’ve breakfasted to re-unite you with your horses. They will have been mucked- out, fed and watered so all you will have to do is flick a brush over them and tack-up before setting out for the day. After a full day while the horses settle, a cup of tea for the riders before being shown relaxation points and techniques to apply to your weary steeds. Back to your accommodation, dinner will be taken at the Rest and Be Thankful Inn (not included in the price). We will check your horses before we ourselves turn in for the night, ensuring that you can rest easy.


Day 3

Breakfast and book out of your rooms, we will then transport you and your luggage back to the farm. After you have groomed you horses we will spend a few minutes stretching before setting off for the final ride. On return back to the stables light lunch while the horse cool down then if time, a final practice on horse relaxation points before boxing up and heading home after what we hope has been a very enjoyable and informative break with you horse.

 

NB This is a sample itinerary and is fairly fluid. We retain the right to make changes depending on weather conditions and the ability of the horses and riders. In must be noted that on some routes we will be travelling along or crossing some minor roads and all riders will be required to abide by road safety rules. Although not a regular occurrence the air-force do on occasions use Dunkery and is surrounds for practice flights we have no knowledge of the dates and times and so feel that anyone considering joining us should be aware of this fact.


For those of you who have partners who don’t ride but wish to join you for the weekend, there are a multitude of

activities locally which may interest them. Please check out ‘Everything Exmoor’ on our links page for more information.
