Every Monday and Wednesday morning (or just Mondays if you are here for a weekend break), it’s pony-ride time with our friendly and gentle ponies: Little Joe, Nimbus and Tommy. Little farmers aged ten and under enjoy a lead-rein walk along the farm drive and the chance to say ‘Hello!’ to their favourite animals.
For some pony-mad girls – and boys – this is the undisputed high point of their stay. Even babies can have a sit in the saddle. You’ll be involved at every stage, from helping your child adjust their riding hat and getting on their pony to supporting them as they ride along.
*Pony Poppets*
Pony Poppets offers informal sessions for children including pony care and lead-rein riding fun in our outdoor school. These sessions are only available to families staying at Tredethick. They are for one family at a time and are tailored to the age of your children. Pony Poppets is led by our resident equine expert, Liz. 45 minute slots (suitable for 1-2 children) cost £45, 75 minute sessions (recommended for 3 children) are £65. Please email [email protected] to book. It’s the next best thing to having your own pony!
