Horses are very well trained, stable is super clean and nice, my riding was improved day by day. Excellent food and cozy guest house.

The best ever

The horses and instructor Joao, the host Susana and the food, the accommodations and of course the 4 legged family members. So sweet these people! My second time this year.

I had such a great stay with Susanna and João and all their animals. The area around is so beautiful. The food was soooo good. A great place to work on your riding while also relaxing outside. The horses were amazing and so patient. Even my non-horsey husband had an amazing time. I can't wait to come back!

Dressage and working equitation training

Susana and João are wonderful hosts. I really enjoyed the dressage and working equitation lessons by João on well trained Lusitano horses. Susana prepares really delicious typical Portugese dishes accompanied by a glass of wine of a local producer. Everything is very clean and well kept.

Best riding holiday

Susana and João were excellent hosts, they made me feel at home and very welcome. Horses were well kept, in great shape and trained to the highest standards. João is amazing and patient horse trainer, his cheeky personality makes learning a fun experience. Susana can go to MasterChef TV show with her cooking skills, the food was so delicious! All facilities are clean and cared for and you have lovely dogs to play with too when you are not riding. Cannot wait to come back!

Amazing experience with Susana and João (and horses!)

Love how all the horses here are well trained, well-mannered and lovely. Dressage lessons are great and have had a chance to try grand prix movements; also have had a go at working equitation and really enjoyed learning from João.

João and Susana truly love their animals so much, the stables is filled with laughters everyday with the doggies running around! Have had such an amazing time I even extended my trip with them! Really enjoyed my stay here and learned a lot.
