There is accommodation available if you go onto our 'accommodation' box.

Please let us know if you are going to be coming on your own and would maybe like to share accommodation with someone else if your game to meet new people! It helps keep your running costs down.

We do however have rustic functioning camping available on site a short 5 min walk from the stables with breath taking views. If your lucky you might even see the little otter that comes in at night! Book through Lunga Estate. (In our accommodation box)


⚠️ Please don’t take it personally if you cannot get a hold of us immediately or in some cases - at all. ⚠️

Firstly and foremost it is a small but busy yard. The Owner deals with everything to ensure the smooth running of the day to day tasks including taking out the rides. 

There will be times she may not answer you back, please feel free to keep trying. What we do ask is if you can’t reach the owner, there is a valid reason to why she is unable to deal with your enquiry (she does have a life out-with the horses..)





Western/Working Equitation Week


An annual opportunity for Riders of all levels to receive a week of instruction/or tailor make your own riding holiday.

Bring your own horse or hire one of our team if you are well known to us and are regular riders. You Choose how many days/half days you wish to participate in.

 All aspects of Western riding will be covered. 


The week finishes with a day of shows, all in good fun, with classes for all different abilities, including novice horse and novice rider, and a prize giving dinner and presentation.


We are very pleased to announce that our clinician for this year is none other than Louise Mcknight from Broadway performance horses!


 Louise needs no introduction to us, she has competed to an extremely high level including European. Louise is not only a trainer but also a clinician as well as a competitor.

Louise started her career as an English rider coming up through pony club. Louise's mum was a riding instructor which allowed Louise the opportunity to pursue a career in her love of horses which was advantageous. Louise competed successfully in various English disciplines and has a good skill set that can easily be transferred between English and western riding, thus making her a highly sought after clinician. 

Louise is a UKCC level 3 coach in western riding. She has competed in Europe in reining, winning a rookie title. She has a western training yard in Broadway bringing on young horses and competing for clients in all disciplines including ranch/ranch trail and ranch riding and has many championships under her belt. 

We consider ourselves very privileged and honoured that Louise has kindly been able to be our Clinician this year at Western Week/Working Equitation/Horsemanship. Louise has a wealth of knowledge that she is more than willing to share and works in unison with each individual partnership of horse and rider.

DATES: 31st May To 7th June
