Our group of three stay in Landhotel Hitzacker for 8 days, we had 6 days of riding. Two of us are total beginner, never ridden before, Hannah did an excellent job; they are now able to trot and go out for walk with no problem. We hardly speak any German, and our host Louise and instructor Hannah speaks perfect English, no problem with communication at all.
A ride in the forest is a MUST. We were lucky to visit in November, we saw a magical forest of gold right in front of our eyes. In the evening, is one of the darkest place you will find and we saw starts and milky way with our eye.
I love their way of approach with riding is all about the communication with the horse/pony you ride. You will be handling the horse yourself, from bring it to the stable for grooming to tacking up your own horse with staff's supervision.
Definite a place to unwind and relax. Louise's food are delicious, friendly staff, quiet village. We got pampered so much we even lost track of dates in the middle of the week. A place I will bring my friends and family to visit again.
