  1. CANCELLATIONS

By making a booking for a lesson, we are committed to you and you are committed to us. At least 24 hours notice of cancellation is required in order for us to rebook the horse or instructor for that hour. We do not ask you to pay in advance for your lessons however, if less than 24 hours notice of a cancellation is given you are required to pay for your booking – regardless of illness or other extenuating circumstances. Although this is your leisure it is our full time living therefore we ask you to pay for your booking if less than 24 hours notice is given. Theory on all aspects of horse management is an alternative if you do not feel up to riding.

  1. HOLIDAY PROGRAMMES

The Holiday Programmes range from 1 day to 4 days. The Programmes enable children to learn total care and understanding of horses. The 4 day camps finish with ribbons and trophies on the final day. There also day programmes for adults.

  1. SAFETY

Safety is our number one priority. Accordingly, we ask that you obey the following basic safety procedures:

APPROVED HELMETS are compulsory for all riders. While we hire helmets in the beginning, we recommend that each rider purchases a correctly fitted approved riding helmet. Parents need to be responsible for the fitting of their child's helmet before they start their lesson.

FOOTWEAR. It is very important that riders have the correct footwear. We strongly recommend that each rider purchases a pair of correctly fitted riding boots.

HORSES are very SENSITIVE and UNPREDICTABLE creatures. They also KICK. Always be extremely cautious when you’re around the horses and DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES:

(a)Walk BEHIND a horse;

(b)Let DOGS out of your car;

(c)Bring UMBRELLAS up to the arena; or

(d)Bring PLASTIC BAGS onto the property.

In addition, please note that RIDERS ONLY are permitted in the arena and the arena gateway must be kept CLEAR at all times.
