Motivational Riding Holidays for you and your horse |
Whether you're looking for an action-packed week of lessons, escorted rides and trips to competition centres; the right environment to 'break in' or bring on a young horse; or simply somewhere to base yourself and 'do your own thing' - East Harwood offers a great facility, with the added benefits of good meals, great hospitality and a decent night's sleep.
East Harwood Farm is ideally situated between beautiful Exmoor farmland and moorland, hills and beaches and offers a perfect, peaceful setting for horse and rider to enjoy a first class holiday. The emphasis is on a fun and adventurous experience with lots of time in the saddle. Riders and their horses will spend a week becoming more confident riders and better partners with their horses.

The Equestrian Experience you have been waiting for... |
The emphasis is on a fun and adventurous experience with lots of time in the saddle - enabling you to really ride, enjoy and be in partnership with your horse.
A typical week may include flatwork and/or show jumping on the farm, outriding onto the high moor (without crossing a road!), galloping along the nearby beaches, a day hunting & a trip round a professional event course.
The secret lies in the beautiful Exmoor countryside - when the horses are exercised in such exhilarating and challenging terrain, tension and 'freshness' flow away - their minds have so much to think about. For example, they can have a long canter without worrying about bolting and spooking - because of the peaceful environment; and youngsters don't have to cross busy roads while they are gaining the confidence to cope with the challenges of riding.
At East Harwood, we can offer the horses constructive, enjoyable work that translates into a good frame of mind for schooling and development.
Would you like to spend a week becoming a more confident rider and establishing a better partnership with your horse? If so, then East Harwood is the place for you. Here, you are a vital part of the horse's training and it is you that will bring on your horse - and go forward.

East Harwood Farm - The warmest welcome awaits |
The 17th century Farmhouse provides flexible accommodation...
Self-Catering
The delightful Self-Contained Annexe can accommodate up to six people. It has two bedrooms (one double and one twin), one luxury bathroom, a living room with a double sofa bed and a kitchen with Rayburn stove.
B&B
You can also stay in the Farmhouse with B&B (dinner is available by arrangement). There are plenty of worthwhile 'eateries' to discover - such as The Royal Oak at Luxborough, Woods in Dulverton or Andrew's on the Weir at Porlock Weir. Exmoor is famous for its fine produce and we can certainly point you in the right direction to discover it. Delicious packed lunches can be arranged whenever needed.
Breakfast
Guests rise to the smell of freshly ground coffee and are treated to a full English breakfast, cooked in front of them in the huge Farmhouse kitchen. In the summer months, you might choose to enjoy delicious croissants on the sun terrace.

Schooling & Tuition at East Harwood Farm |
Specialist Trainers...
Motivational Riders works with a range of carefully selected equine professionals, including Yeb de Jong BHS AI, who will be available for clinics, workshops and lessons.
Horsemanship
We emphasise 'horsemanship' here, so there will always be time to discuss feed and exercise and demonstrate skills such as clipping, plaiting, mane pulling, tack selection and maintenance.
Bring Your Problems with You
With skills in re-schooling 'problem' horses, Motivational Riders will happily ride owners' horses for them until horse and owner are re-united. We can even transport horses if they are difficult to load.
Starting, schooling & re-schooling
East Harwood offers the perfect facility to break in, bring on or re-school your horse...don't simply send him off into the unknown - come along, be part of the process - and treat yourself to a first class holiday too! What better way to establish a confident, positive, trust-based relationship with your youngster than a week at East Harwood Farm?
Horses for Sale and Purchase
We are happy to assist in the sale of a horse or the purchase of a new horse. We can take horses to sell with a 10% commisson on top of your choice of livery.
