Pony fun for 2-10 year olds in Cheshire

Come and experience a gentle introduction to ponies with Amanda, described as the lovely lady who makes little peoples' dreams come true, in her idyllic orchard with her tiny, gentle ponies.

Your 2 and 3 year old can get involved here as we're insured for children as young as 2 to groom and ride a pony.

Themed pony afternoons
We're running a series of themed pony open afternoons 2-3.30 various dates over the summer holidays.
Themes include fairies, flowers, princesses and knights (and shortly a frozen theme - yeah!)
Your child will love decorating the pony with ribbons and stickers, have a short ride, enjoy some themed craft eg crown making, flower decorating etc and take a wander around our orchard to look at the owls nest or see if the apples are ripe or look at different flowers in the orchard.
At £12.75 per child these are very well received by children parents and grandparents!

An hours private visit for 1-3 children. Pony grooming and pampering and half an hours riding, which usually includes going on an adventure on horseback down to the bottom of the orchard!!
These are popular with visitors to Cheshire, grandparents looking for entertainment for their grandchildren and parents looking for a special treat for their children.
These are available week-days and are discounted on a Monday for 2 or 3 children.
From £25 per child on  Monday based on 3 children.
