Full Moon Expeditions
Solo Riders
We know there are lots of you out there that love riding, but maybe your nearest and dearest don’t quite match your passion for horses! And maybe you’d love to experience a trail riding adventure, but don’t really fancy it much on your own. Well, help is at hand.
Every month we run a three-day Full Moon Expedition for solo riders. It gives you the chance to experience all the great riding we have here, and meet new friends at the same time. And, of course we can guarantee that the other single riders will love horses almost as much as you. These riding holidays go out around the full moon each month, from a Friday to Monday. Why not give it a go!
Of course, if you and your friends would like to come on a Full Moon Expedition together, that’s fine too.
