Had a lovely 1 hour pony trek with my 6 year old son. The staff were really friendly & great with me as a very nervous completely inexperienced rider. Gemma even walked alongside me instead of riding her own horse because of my nerves. I was no need to be anxious, Mr Kash was very well behaved except when he was trying to have cheeky snacks along the way ha! Thoroughly recommend, the girls were great with my little boy too.

The riding stables situated on the Wales / England border, overlooking the Ceiriog Valley giving instant access to great off road riding on tracks, fields and bridleways. From an hour's trek to enjoy the scenery, a fast hack to enjoy the lovely horses, a lesson in flat work or jumping with our qualified instructor, a day ride or trek for all levels of riders to a residential holiday or trail ride in this lovely part of Wales.

I love this place! Everything about it from the wonderful horses, staff, scenery and friendly atmosphere. I came here 10 and 8 years ago with my University riding club and loved it back then! We decided to come back this year to relive our youths and we were not disappointed! Fantastic fast paced rides with plenty of canters and gallops, stunning scenery and views, the horses were wonderful, fit and well cared for. Ellie, Liz and Dawn were fantastic trek leaders and really looked after us and made sure we had fun each time. It was lovely to see Steve and Sue again and we enjoyed the BBQ and picnic and pub stops en route again too! This is such a fantastic place - we have now decided to make this an annual riding holiday trip and we are all so glad we decided to come back nearly a decade later! Thank you so much to all the staff and horses!

We had a fantastic riding experience with Carl and Jess as Darky Dale Stables this weekend. The horses were so calm and gentle, and obviously well cared for. We learnt a lot about the horses and riding, and the scenery was amazing...Really enjoyed the whole experience. Would definitely recommend
