Your safety is paramount to us, so it’s very important that you’re fitted with the correct safety gear to ensure that your ride is as enjoyable and safe as possible.

Helmet hire is included free with your horse riding booking. You’re also most welcome to bring your own – so long as it complies with the following requirements, and has not suffered an impact (from a fall, being dropped, squashed etc).

Your helmet will be assessed by a guide when you arrive – and the use of your helmet is up to their discretion, and may be refused for any reason, including but not limited to the above reasons.
