The annual "Summer Camps" are a highlight of the SaddleTramps calander.  This 4 day 3 night riding holiday is for unaccompanied children from 10 -16yrs.  Accomodation is on our "campsite" in large group tents which all have a perfect view of the stables, meals are all taken in our "pole barn" annexed to the stables - heaven for the horse-mad! There are hot showers and proper toilets - a little more glamping than camping!

No equestrian experience is necessary, and you don't need any special equipment, Tim and Sam will soon teach you the basics and get you up in the saddle.  You will also learn how to care for your horse.

This action packed week sees campers taking part in a huge range of activites from treasure hunts and trail rides to crafts and carriage driving, there is even a farriery demonstration.  Every day finishes with a dog walk in the woods (dogs provided!) and hot cholcolate around the camp fire - toasting marshmallows is always popular.

Summer camp is a week for kids to be kids, there are no i-pods or video games just fresh air, room to run and homemade tasty meals. Tim is an experienced chef (he worked in several Michelin starred kitchens before making the great escape to West Wales) - so dietary requirements and allergies can be catered for.

For our younger riders we offer a condensed "mini-camp" - a 2 day 1 night sleep over for kids aged 8-11yrs (no secondary school kids - but year 6 leavers are allowed)

Summer camp is a great way to encourage independence, build confidence and make some great new friends (2 legged as well as 4 legged).   Parents are welcome to visit for the camp bar-b-que mid- week.
