12-year-old mare Peggy who used to enjoy a pint and a packet of crisps at a pub in Tyneside with her owner, has been barred after the landlady purchased new carpets. If, like Peggy, redecorating has put a block on your fun-time, perhaps it’s an exhilarating canter through the Atlantic surf along deserted beaches followed by an evening of Irish craic and a well-deserved pint of the ‘black stuff’ you’re in need of! Equine Adventures offers 4 or 7-night Riding by the Sea horse riding holidays in County Sligo with departures available between Thursdays and Sundays from Sligo now until 30th October 2008 and from April to November in 2009.Riders are based at Holiday Horse Farm, situated in the most beautiful and untouched area of Ireland directly on the Atlantic coastline. Arrive in time to meet the well mannered, experienced and very sure-footed Irish Hunters and Connemara ponies, then enjoy a short trial ride to become acquainted with each other. Riders keep the same horse for the duration of the holiday and are free to choose a pre-breakfast gallop along miles of sandy beaches or a trek along the lanes of the hinterland at sunset! For the willing, there is also a challenging 10-mile cross-country course with over 50 obstacles - designed to cater for all levels of jumping, so everyone can have fun. For time out of the saddle, Wednesday is rest day for the horses, allowing guests to relax or explore the counties of Sligo and Donegal.
Riding holidays cost from £495 p/p (4-nights) and £750 p/p (7-nights) including B&B farmhouse or guesthouse accommodation and all riding.
