Lucky you! I had a great time there with a friend in September last year further to your recommendation. Lovely place and great people. Have a good time and I hope everyone is well. Jack was an absolute hero for getting us to the airport in a thunder storm of biblical proportions. It was very scary at the time.

Do any of you long term LAs remember a horse there called Seductor?

Yes. He ended up in England and is still with us I think. Beautiful horse.

I was the one that brought him to England. I adore him as much now as I did when I first met him. There isn’t a day goes past when he doesn’t make me smile/laugh.

Ah! Lovely lad. Yes he was gelded and came to LA for just one year I think. My friend rode him. So smart! Glad he’s fit and well. They lost Zal last year another favourite. Sarita also now retired.

That is a shame they lost Zal, I know he was a favourite with a lot of regulars. Sarita bless her, she has deserved to have a long and happy retirement.

Think some rain forecast so bring a coat. Rachel is excellent at matching rides to horses and Jose is a fabulous guide. When he says only small canter it will still be speedy!

Amazing! I've got a light shower proof coat, no waterproof riding trousers though, do you think that matters?
The weather doesn't look great
but got to be better than England! I'm so excited

Whatever you want really. I wear a dress when it’s warm enough sometimes but it’s been jeans and leggings last couple of days. Let us know how you get on! Have fun!

It’s such a special place!
we met once when I took Indio to Keysoe. It’s wonderful to hear he’s still with us! I had some great lessons on him and rode him out at LA. He taught me so much.
I used to own Galeno, he’s an absolute sweetheart! There was a complicated horse swapping and cash deal done when I bought Chilli and Galeno ended up owned by Antonio and staying at LA. He’s a perfect hacking horse

Looks amazing. Is there a link to 2024 prices as they only state 2022 and 2023?

Oh how lovely, i am amazed he is still there! He was about 6 in 2016 when i went, he had not long been gelded. He was quite naughty and dumped me in the sea during our photographic session. He was a lovely boy though.
