You must go here!!!

Fantastic 3 day break with Equestrian Escapes to Cheshire. The stables and livery were one of the best I have been too both in the UK and overseas. Horses were fabulous and their health and wellbeing is at the heart of this establishment. Chris and Laura were superb instructors and guides and Sandra, the owner, took time to make sure that I was happy with my ride and the horses that had been chosen for me. I would highly recommend this holiday ...

Well organised and gave great advice about the riding suitability.

We agree, the has to be one of the best stables certainly in the UK and possibly anywhere in the world!

Many thanks for your comments we have a relatively small selection of holidays on our site and that is because our standards are very high!

Amazing last-second riding experience in Cheshire

thank you so much for your swift and direct organisational skills. I had a fab time in Cheshire. BnB owner was LOVELY. I massively recommend that you send single travellers to her as she made me feel so welcome. The dogs do have quite a loud bark so I'm not sure it would be suitable for small children or those wary of dogs! The breakfasts are great. The Stables were FAB! It was a fabulous Trio of horses that they put together for me...

Your efficiency and friendliness with my last-second booking was first rate! Thank you Thank you J

Friendly. Superb use of FBook - not too much 'in your face' marketing - just inspirational. Real human beings who know what they are talking about.

Equestrian Escapes Luxury in Cheshire

Equestrian Escape’s riding break in Cheshire proved to be one of the best choices that I have ever made for a short break. I was nervous booking a horse riding break, both as I was travelling alone but also as I was a very rusty rider. The stable in Cheshire is first class and I would recommend it whole heartedly. The instructors are all British Horse Society approved and trained and you could tell from the first moment you stepped on the yard ...

Equestrian Escape’s riding break in Cheshire proved to be one of the best choices that I have ever made for a short break. I was nervous booking a horse riding break, both as I was travelling alone but also as I was a very rusty rider. The stable in Cheshire is first class and I would recommend it whole heartedly. The instructors are all British Horse Society approved and trained and you could tell from the first moment you stepped on the yard what a professional and well run establishment it was. I fell in love with their beautiful horses and learned so much from my lessons that I am now taking instruction locally on a weekly basis. The hacking was a joy and I must also mention my lovely hostess Catherine who runs the B&B where I stayed, she really added to what was a really memorable experience. Thanks to all!

Having recently returned to riding after a 20 something year break......I was delighted to have found Equestrian Escapes. The ladies in the office are all extremely helpful and listened with understanding as I explained to them exactly what sort of break I was looking for. I suspect like many ladies of a certain age safety was paramount to me and although I didn’t want to ride an old plod I did want a well behaved school master. They suggested their riding break in Cheshire (I had read the testimonials on their site and they proved to be absolutely right). The riding tuition was of a very high standard, approved by The British Horse Society with qualified instructors and horses that behaved like saints. After my stay I was cantering again with confidence and on the last day I even did a small jump. Thank you so much this really was everything and more than I could have hoped for. I have just booked for Mallorca and will let you know how I get on there!

Best horse riding break in Cheshire ever

I have just come back from the best weekends riding of my life from your home base of Cheshire. I stayed in the farmhouse B&B with Catherine and she was delightful from start (the home made cakes) to finish. My room was lovely and had views on beautiful countryside studded with horses grazing peacefully in the fields. My instructors at the stables were the best, Chris had improved my canter within minutes and by my last lesson I was jumping ...

My room was lovely and had views on beautiful countryside studded with horses grazing peacefully in the fields. My instructors at the stables were the best, Chris had improved my canter within minutes and by my last lesson I was jumping small fences with confidence. The hacking in the forest and on the woodland tracks was so tranquil, I can’t wait to come back.
