Horse Riding in Wild Wales - 2 days
Our adventure begins as we travel west over the border, crossing the River Severn estuary and into another country - Wales. The first stop is Chepstow with its impressive castle - the oldest stone fortress in the country. Here the beautiful River Wye merges with the Severn and flows out to the ocean. This ancient Welsh port provides us with an early lunch stop before we explore the Wye Valley and visit the ruins at Tintern, a 12th century Cistercian Abbey whose romantic delights inspired the poetry of Wordsworth and the paintings of Turner. As we continue our journey westwards we enter the dramatic hill country of South Wales and visit Hay-on-Wye, the famous town of books, which boasts a yearly festival that Bill Clinton once called ‘the Woodstock of the mind’. Here, amongst the quiet, narrow streets there will be time for dinner and a chance to look around the many second hand bookstores before we head off to our accomodation.
Our second day involves a full day’s horseback riding in the Brecon Beacons National Park, taking in remote bridleways and ancient tracks with views of the stunning mountains, an important feature of the Welsh countryside. A relaxing stop in a village pub for food and refreshment will also be given.
No knowledge of horse riding required! Experienced instructor accompany group. All horses are well trained and used to special trails
