From the people who know best...
"I have had such an amazing time out hunting, meeting new people and exploring your beautiful country.
All of the horses were amazing and took such good care of me. I also really appreciated Megan's helpful tips out hunting."
Margaret Luck, Richmond
"When going on a riding trip, there is usually something not quite right, such as bad lodgings, naughty horses, or disappointing food. Not on this luxurious trip. It was perfect.
Blackthorn and Brook, you know how to make a holiday 1st class!"
Marti Bryant, Louisiana
"The horses were a treat. They were beautifully trained and well behaved.
They gave us the courage to try our first hedges. What a blast!
You only live once and I'm truly glad we have this week to hold on to. It was the vacation of a lifetime"
Vicky Mitchell, Virginia
