🍂🐴 HORSE RIDING HOLIDAYS AT MAY HILL FARM! 🐴🍂

Imagine waking up in the beautiful Gloucestershire countryside, stepping outside and spending your day exploring May Hill on horseback… then heading back to your cosy accommodation to relax. 🤎

We’re now offering completely tailored horse riding holidays at May Hill Farm Equestrian!

🏡 Stay in Lavender Cottage or Shepherd’s Rest
🐴 Choose exactly how much riding you’d like
🌳 Enjoy stunning hacking across May Hill and the surrounding countryside
✨ Suitable for different riding abilities
👫 Perfect for couples, friends, families or a horsey getaway
🌙 Minimum 2-night stay

There’s no set riding package — that’s the best bit! You tell us what kind of break you’d love and we’ll tailor the riding around you. Whether you fancy one relaxing countryside hack or want to spend as much of your holiday in the saddle as possible, we can build your stay to suit.

Your accommodation has a fixed price, then the final package price simply depends on how much riding you choose.

🍁 Autumn dates now available — and these breaks will continue throughout the seasons.

📩 Message May Hill Farm Equestrian to create your perfect horse riding getaway.

Stay. Ride. Explore. Escape. 🐴🤎

Please note that in this video the rider is not wearing a riding hat as it was filmed for promotional purposes.

For all riding lessons, approved riding hats are mandatory and must be worn at all times while mounted.

Don’t worry though – there will be plenty of opportunities before and after your ride to pop on a cowboy hat for photos and capture the Western experience safely! 📸🤎
