Glamping Getaway

Immerse yourself in nature on a riding holiday with a difference

Glamping Getaways are perfect for anyone wanting to spend more time in the great outdoors. Riders can spend their days exploring the mountains on horse back and return back to beautiful bespoke yurt accommodation surrounded by nature with the Alpujarra mountains as a stunning backdrop.

Each day you will enjoy treks out from the centre &/or take lessons in our arena with instructors. We offer a range of riding packages to suit you & aim to make your time with us as enjoyable as possible. We cater for individuals, small groups, couples & families.

Everyone has unique requirements and expectations as to what their perfect horse riding holiday should look like. We offer a bespoke service and highly flexible packages individual to your requirements.

We keep trek groups small so you will never find yourself trailing behind an endless line of horses nose to tail. Ride numbers are kept small , ensuring maximum safety and a personal touch. All abilities are catered for and we will match you with suitable horses based on the information you provide.

You may want to focus on improving your riding in the arena or maybe you want to enjoy a series of treks in the mountains. We will listen to you and together we will create your perfect riding holiday.

Two bespoke yurts are available to our clients and we can offer a beautiful bow top wagon for extra sleeping space. Both yurts feature fans (summer) and cozy wood burning stoves for the winter months. They both have eco compost toilets and en suite bathrooms. Both yurts have plenty of outdoor space for relaxing and are set in nature, surrounded by trees. The yurts are blessed with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Glamping horse riding holidays tick all the boxes if you are looking to get closer to nature and spend more time in the great outdoors both in & out of the saddle.
