Last spring I decided I'd like to learn how to ride English style on a horse. Living in England…read moremade this goal quite a bit easier and after extensive research I headed to Cornwall so I could not only learn how to ride English style but so I could do it by the sea. After taking my first riding lessons and hacks with Newton, I would highly recommend them. They start you off indoors to get you comfortable with walking, trotting, cantering and generally manoeuvring the horse. From there you go on hacks in the outdoors (I especially loved these) in all types of terrain including the beach (there's something really amazing about racing toward the ocean on the back of a galloping horse!) No need to bring your own hat as Newton has them available in a wide range of sizes and you can pick them up before your ride. The horses at Newton appear happy and well-cared for. As well, the instructors are patient and have a good sense about riders abilities, whether they're three or sixty five years old (I saw the whole range of ages whilst I was there.) As a less experienced rider, I felt very well taken care of at Newton.

Trenance is my regular stables where I have lessons every week and I love it, I also love helping out with the horses as I love to be around them and learn new things. I was a very nervous person when I came to this stables and they have helped me to progress and gain some more confidence. This was because the staff are really friendly and understanding. Also the horses are amazing, beautiful and lovely to ride. They work really hard at what they do and they are very good at it. Personally this is my favourite stables of all time and I have been riding there for quite a while now!!!

Would never go there again! The girl was on her phone pretty much the entire time and didn't talk…read moreto me at all. I didn't feel at all comfortable there. They didn't even say goodbye or ask how it went. Way more expensive than other local stabels and the worst customer service i've ever seen! A couple of the girls were nice but it didnt make up for being treated like i was invisable. Would definatly not recommend, especielly to a beginner who needs extra encouragment and patience. My horse was lovely however 3 of the 4 horses that went out had diarreah...........not a good sign of health.

I have been visiting Penhalwyn once a year for the past five years or so, I was more impressed as a…read moreyoung child but now I realise the downsides of this so called riding school. I would definitely agree with a previous review that the horses appear poorly kept as they are far too often made to go out on the road for tourists and over the years I've seen many issues with grumpy and inattentive volunteers/staff, disobedient horses, people falling off or otherwise having bad experiences. The routes of the hour long treks are pleasant but once you've been on a couple of these, you've really seen all the surrounding areas have to offer. Overall I'd recommend this place as a one off if you're looking for something to do out of boredom but otherwise, it's a bit of a poor show. If I remember correctly it's not the cheapest of activities either.
