Development Camp January 22nd -26th 2024

Join us for the ultimate horse riding intensive designed to elevate your child’s skills and confidence both in and out of the saddle, while having tons of fun too!

This will be a sleepaway camp with riders staying for the full camp in tents or trucks/floats, fully catered and riders with own horse/ponies welcome. We will have special guests throughout the week for talks and demos as well as out rides, flat work, and jumping sessions, as well as all our usual camp fun and games. Our annual Friday scavenger hunt being a highlight as usual!
