Just a few questions, how much is it?
Erm what do i need to bring apart from myself horse and tack and my hat.
Is it good looks fab on the piccys, how long will it take to do it? I am excited now how big are the jumps and do you have to do them? I have no idea how well my boy jumps, i will be trying them but you know can you skip some if im not feeling very brave??
Many thankies Ooh do you wear your body protector to as its like a cross country course?
 
Dont need anything other than that, they got wash down facilities so maybe just scraper and brush.

Takes between 1-s hrs to winter ride, 1/2 hr longer for summer ride depending on how fast you travel, the going is always good.

All jumps optional and are between approx 2ft and 3ft.

Body protector optional.

Hope this helps. Have a fab time, i've done it loads of times and it's a nice ride.
 
Ride
£14 per horse, 10% discount 10 or more horses

Farm ride/Cross Country Combined
£27 per horse

doing a picnic lunch as don't think there is anywhere to get food from. I think it will take up to 2hours to get round if take it easy. Patches has done it before and said it took her about 1hr 45mins (I think?) jumps are between 2'-3' entirely optional, so if you see one you like the look off you can then go back and jump it. back protector is optional.
 
Plus bring a snorkel if you are doing the "swim"

Lol sounds great im so excited so is ours the top price then? Yeah i will be bringing a lunch, i think i may have mum and dad coming to watch but it does depend, probably be at work. What time roughly are we all going? Im like a little kid i really am excited to go, huggy bear im going to find you a horse what are you after? etc.
 
I think so am going to ring over the weekend and book in for me and sis. Will sort a time out to meet up, say about 11am which would enable everyone plenty of time to get there and get tacked up. Can then have a leisurely mooch around in groups to be sorted out and then have a nice picnic for us and haynets for the neddies

Can you not pay on the day? Ooh sounds like its going to be fun, that means i will be up on the yard early as its 45 min drive so yeah thats fine. Im excited i have done a 14 mile ride before and that was brilliant loved that so much. Im nervous though as i dont know anybody? Who is going of here? Il have to talk to them a bit so its not like total strangers

See how nice am i hes very good. Aww what a shame though we will have to go again and you will have to come with us.
 
don't know as not asked but will do tomorrow and let you know. Not sure how long it will take us as we are coming from Stafford which is J13 + J14 on the M6 so think it will take a while longer than you. No need to be nervous as I don't know anyone either, bar sister, bar talking to them on here, but everyone is horse mad so we should be ok
