Unicorn Trails offers several horse riding holidays in the UK which is well known for its excellent horses and horsemanship. The United Kingdom is Unicorn's home territory so naturally we are the experts! As many of our clients are also based in Great Britain our numerous short riding breaks here are particularly popular but we offer longer holidays as well.
We have UK riding holidays to suit everyone, from beginners and novice riders to experienced riders who like fast riding. Some rides will welcome single riders and others are great for children and families. We have trail rides and based stays. Our holiday with Clydesdale and Shire horses can facilitate the heavier rider. If you want tuition in the basics or something more specific such as side-saddle, show jumping or dressage then we have the perfect equestrian holiday for you. Read below for a taster of our UK riding breaks.
Wales is a stunning country for a riding holiday. The Black Mountains extend over the counties of Powys and Monmouthshire in south east Wales (and also over the border into England). They form part of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Its here that we offer an ultimate, exclusive, exploratory trail riding holiday The Brecon Beacon Trail - UK. As a small group you'll ride at a good pace on carefully researched routes to experience the dramatic rugged scenery at its best. Accommodation is in welcoming farms and inns with en-suite rooms. Single riders are most welcome, and if you choose to share a room then there is no additional cost. The food each night is excellent. Whether you are a native Brit or a foreign visitor, you will love this week long horseback vacation.
If you don't have time to escape for a week we also have the Brecon Short Break - UK . This short break ride is a 3-day/ 3-night cut down version of the week's trail. Come either for a weekend or mid week.
Over the border into England we have a short horse riding break that has been a firm favourite with our clients for years. We call it quite simply our Cambridgeshire ride. The riding centre is located on the border of Nene Valley Park which offers miles of exhilarating riding. The park stretches from Wansford to Peterborough, with 2,000 acres of lakes, woodlands and watermeadows. The emphasis here is very much on tailoring the break to your needs: a relaxing weekend in nature, gaining riding fitness or skills, confidence building for lapsed riders or beginners. Clients often come here to brush up their skills before heading off on a longer holiday.
