What more could you wish for?

Don’t miss this unique experience in a beautiful, tranquil setting, learning from professionals who are truly passionate about what they do. Our craft workshops are lively and filled with people enjoying the weekend. Combined with horses and the stunning surroundings, they create a dream experience you’ll want to repeat every year.

Start the week with horsemanship sessions offering a range of experiences from bareback riding to ground and mounted work. You’ll also enjoy talks on horse communication techniques and equine therapy. Each session is designed to deepen your connection with the horses and enhance your personal growth, setting a tone of relaxation and a feeling of stability and calm.

Towards the end of the week, choose a two-day workshop from options such as silver jewellery making, basket weaving, bushcraft, leatherwork, or drum making.
This popular weekend adds the final touch, allowing you to meet lovely people from all walks of life, bring home a wonderful experience, and create something beautiful.
