- Happy to collect you from Baldock Station; back at our cottage we can provide boots/jackets. Over a welcoming drink and a snack (arrive hungry please!) you can tell us your riding experience; we pay serious attention to your expectations as we aim to provide each rider with the ideal equine partner for your day with us. Having signed a disclaimer and had a hat fitted you’ll meet your horse and be shown how to feed carrots, nominally groom and do ground work using voice commands. We normally divide the riding (bridleways or country lanes) into two sessions of 45/50m each divided by home made lunch or supper with wine but we might keep you up for 90/100min and eat afterwards ; depending on weather and your fitness. We can go as slowly as you like, you won’t be pushed out of your comfort zone! Forgive us in advance for putting the horses’ happiness a very close second to your safety :-) but the experience of viewing the world through the ears of a happy horse could start you on an amazing equine adventure. If you weigh above 80kg/have children below 12 please get in touch before booking. We hope you'll enjoy this form of riding which focuses on voice commands (no kicking or pulling) thus insuring your horse enjoys it as much as you do ;-). We also offer an introduction to Mindful Riding for intermediate riders who are with first-timers and want to progress at a deeper level.From Price:$133 / person
- We will make together fresh pasta and gnocchi. I will provide 500 gr of pasta flour, eggs and potatoes. If you want you can be free to use different kinds of flours (white, chestnut, chickpea...) and to prepare gluten-free or vegan (without eggs) pasta. To roll out the dough we will use the rolling pin and the pasta machine. For an extra price of £10 we can cook the pasta and eat together, I will provide a nice sauce (only after Friday's class). Other things to note I will provide 500 gr of pasta flour, eggs and potatoes to make pasta and gnocchi.From Price:$28 / person
- I will meet my guests at the riding school where our driving horses are. I will give them a safety briefing. Then we will bring our lovely Haflinger, Bruce, in from the field and give him his hay and a brush. Guests will learn how to harness the horse, and put him into the carriage. We will put on hi-vis jackets. Guests will sit up at the front of the carriage with me, and with their own set of reins so they learn to control the horse (a bit like dual-control in a car). We will drive round the village of Furneux Pelham at a walk and trot, for forty minutes, passing the church, the school, the old forge, the pub, and will arrive back at the Riding School. We will unharness the horse, give him a nice feed and put him back in his field. We will enjoy hot and cold drinks and snacks before we head home. The whole experience will take two hours. Other things to note There are around 30 ponies and horses, two friendly dogs, several sheep and three cats at the riding school. We provide optional riding hats (which we recommend). It is best to be quite quiet around horses. We make every effort to make you safe but please be aware Carriage-Driving is a risk sport.From Price:$56 / person
