Welcome to our TripAdvisor page. I am Oliver Walsh and for the past 15 years I have welcomed visitors from all over the world to Flowerhill Equestrian Centre in Co Galway, Ireland. Visitors come for the hospitality, willing and fit horses, extensive cross country horseback riding facilities and relaxed and happy atmosphere. Flowerhill is based in 250 acres of beautiful east Galway country side. We are surrounded by the best possible cross country horse riding land - green fields, woods, the Kilcrow river, and wonderful wildlife. You can gallop across open fields, swim through the lake and splash in the Kilcrow river, scaring away the fish as you go. Our fences are a mixture of natural logs, stone walls, ditches and a variety of man made obstacles, including giant bananas! Most of the 150 fences include 2 or more options, so whether you are a nervous novice or confident competitor, we will cater for your needs. The riding standard varies from novice cross sountry, through intermediate, right up to advanced open. All riders need to be confident at walk trot and canter, therefore Flowerhil is not for the absolute beginner.Ride with us by the hour, a full day of 2 or 3 rides per day, or stay with us and chill out for a week or more. Rides usually go out daily at 10.00am and 1.30pm, and we change the rides to suit our customers needs. Horse riding variations include show jumping and dressage tuition, cross country workshops, exercising the hounds and hacking down to the local pub, where there are stabling facilities while we enjoy a pint and toasted sandwich. Private cross country or show jumping clinics for an individual rider can also be arranged. Over the years many of customers return again and again to enjoy the fun.
If you are into horses and want a great experience this is the place for you, the grounds are fantastic the staff great and the horses are magnificent.

JT Equestrian prepares riders for hunting in Ireland by organising hunt clinics. Also available for coaching and training of horses and riders.
My husband and I took a recent trip from the USA to Ireland for our 40th wedding Anniversary. The absolute highlight of our trip was the Burren trail ride which we booked with Cooper's Hill Equine., We have some experience riding, but are by no means seasoned riders. Right away James made us feel at ease with his sense of humor, and warm personality. All the staff were wonderful, and their love of their horses is very obvious in the way the horses were handled, and the relaxed personalities of the horses themselves. We were paired with the perfect horses for us, both very gentle with great personalities. I was on Midnight, and Bart was on Mr Eastwood. Our adventure started in the shallow water of Galway Bay, then continued up into the Burren Mountains on an ancient road that wound through the breathtaking landscape. We both highly recommend Cooper's Hill Equine to anyone that wants a special Horseback riding experience in Ireland! Special Thank You to James for taking so many wonderful photos of us of on ride.

Moycullen Riding Centre is situated near Galway city, in the magnificent surroundings of the Connemara countryside. They offer one and two hour treks along bog roads and across mountains. Or why not try their beach ride on Rushing Bay off Galway Bay. Private and group lessons for beginners also available with qualified B.H.S.A.I instructor.
I've only ever experienced good things at Moycullen Riding Centre!Had several lessons with Sandra last year and had a great lesson each time. I decided to go on a beach ride with friends and I had a fantastic time. There were various abilities of riders with us and everyone was catered for safely. Tom was a fantastic guide and stayed very close to those with little riding experience and led us all through paths, shorelines, rivers and across beaches. The horses behaved amazingly, happy to stroll on the beach and stand for photos and then canter when asked and all were well matched with the ability of the rider. I couldn't fault the day and I'll definitley be going for another beach ride soon!
