I cannot praise Shell and her team highly enough. Our horse swimming experience was magical. The team are extremely professional and have a wonderful relationship with their horses. It was truly a privilege to spend time with the horses and to experience their majesty and power. Thanks for a memory I will take to the grave!

Had a fantastic fast-paced beach ride with Chris today. My horse Jolly was a true gent and the backdrop of st Michaels mount was simply stunning - highly recomended!

I booked a bespoke ride while I was on holiday as I wanted to ride on the beach and regain some confidence hacking. Well my ride ticked both boxes and I loved it! I was a bit anxious when I arrived but Chris and Shel were really friendly and after getting to know my lovely horse Jolly off we went to the beach. Chris and Anna were excellent company and great confidence givers especially when I had a minor blip as another horse galloped past on the beach. The really good thing about Chris is that he tailored the ride to me, pushing me a bit but not so much that I felt I could not cope. Since I have been home I have done a Trec competition which involved a 12km ride and I know it was my beach ride that got those nerves sorted! Thank you and I am already plotting to bring my horse down for a week so that we can learn to swim.

Had a fantastic 'bespoke beach ride' at Cornwall Swimming horses! I was a little worried as I am a nervous rider at times but as soon as I arrived I knew I had picked the rite place to experience a beach ride. Chris was very calming and very reassuring as he introduced me to the lovely Chasca.....it is a brilliant idea getting to know your horse before heading out on your ride it made me feel so much more confident! Even when I thought I wasn't capable Chris was there at hand to reasure me and I had the most amazing canters on the beach...Chasca was a gem and a great confidence giver but these horses are definitely not riding school which is why this is such an amazing place! I will be back to do the swimming and another beach ride for sure!

I had a truly awesome hack on Chasca today with Shelley on Gino. Some walking, some trotting and a few canters through some really fantastic scenery at the back of The Peep Out. Bright green new oak leaves, moss covered trees and an abundance of wild flowers everywhere. The whole ride was totally chilled and I felt like I had been meditating on horseback when we got back to the yard. I can't wait for my next session.

What a wonderful experience, totally exhilarating. Chasca was a delight as were Chris and Mazz. I loved the fact that you first got to know your horse before taking to the roads and beach. Chris is like the Horse Whisperer so knowledgeable and calm. The pace was dictated by me so I never felt out of control, which was nice, having not ridden for 10 years! I had the time of my life and cannot thank you enough for such a memorable 2 hours. I will definitely be back! Thanks also to Shel for the easy booking process.
