| Further Details |
|
Our Riding Centre is situated on an organic small holding where we grow vegetables and fruit.
We also have pigs, a goat, peafowl, geese, hens, dogs and cats - so it is like a mini pet farm. Children staying on the camps get to help feed and look after all the animals if they want to.
|
|
| Courses |
|
Through out the summer we run unaccompanied pony camps. (see our website www.liosincentre.com)
Students stay at the centre in a 3 bedroomed cottage and ride for 18 hrs a week and 5 hrs stable management.
They also get to handle youngsters and learn all about looking after a horse/pony.
