The food was excellent favourites included the red wine cake, apricot and almond tart, roast pork and lots more!!! What could we do to improve this ride? I really enjoyed this ride and feel it is a ride which is very well described in the information. How would you rate the difficulty of this ride out of 10 where 1 is very easy and 10 is very advanced? 5 Please explain why you scored it as you did The ride can be catered to the group and abilities, the riding wasn't difficult, the horses do require riding and are fit and responsive. Overall it is a fun ride, friendly people, very well organised ride, relaxing and beautiful surroundings.
