I came to Ireland specifically to ride, so my expectations were fairly high. Mountain View exceeded them. Sweet, well-cared for, beautiful horses and LOVELY and welcoming guides, stunning views during the rides-- the beach ride was probably the most amazing thing I've done on any trip in my entire life. The weather was super rainy for me but I still had the time of my life. The weather didn't both the horses at all, Wear rain gear! A ride with Mountain View is a must if you're in the area (or if you aren't in the area, I came in from Dublin and was very glad I did).

On holidays from Dublin for 4 days, one of the activities on top of my wife and daughters list was horse riding, so after reading the reviews of Drumcliffe equestrian, I decided to book online for the 3 of us and I was so glad we did. From the moment we arrived we were met with a friendly smile and witty banter from the man himself Pat. Pat is a character that makes you feel at ease straight. Helping Pat are his 2 daughters and a handful of other girls from the centre. Covid procedures are in place on arrival and once suited and booted, our horses were brought in and before we new it we were walking around the indoor arena learning the techniques and being led by Pats team. The horses are fantastic and very calm, our 7 year old had never been on a horse before and was loving Polly. Once we were confident enough, Pat took us out into the fields on our trek with his team, who were always in total control and we felt extremely safe throughout our trek. As you can see from the photos, my wife and daughter had a ball and are still talking about the experience and are already planning to take a day trip from Dublin to do it all again. If travelling to Clare, make sure to visit Pat at Drumcliffe Equesrian. You won’t be disappointed.
