The horses were very kind (and I was able to easily overcome my fears of cantering!), the instructors did everything they could to make us happy, the location was beautiful and very pleasant in August, discovering spit-roasted bread was a lovely evening activity, and we were able to organize ourselves to fully enjoy our stay with the other international riders (renting a bike to explore the surrounding area is also very practical!). In short, I came back feeling positively transformed! But it's definitely better to speak English. ;) As for the activities, having had some prior riding experience, everything went very smoothly for beginners. The program was well-balanced between riding sessions and relaxation. Our main instructor was flexible regarding our desire to do more (if our skill level allowed, of course).

This riding center feels like a factory for riding. The horses are tired, jaded, and some are injured. The group is far too large: 20 riders. There's no independence. The instructor yelled at the riders and stressed everyone out. The rides are repetitive and the horses know them by heart. Most rides mix different riding levels.
