My husband had given me a voucher for this beach ride for Christmas, and it was a wonderful present! I booked and went for the ride on Monday 3rd June. I am an experienced rider, a bit rusty and less fit than i should be, but having communicated with the very helpful Hazel and Lotti was excited whent he day came. The ride to the beach on the handsome and steady 'Blue' was great, with trotting and cantering to help get into the feel of the horse. Sarah who took the ride was attentive, professional and I felt fully confident with her, she was a lovely person too! We rode through countryside with some beautiful views and the ride on the beach was fantastic going into the waves and along the sands, i loved every minute and will definitely return! many thanks to all at Marros!

We have just spent a week in the cottage with our two children 9 and 11 on site which is in a beautiful, peaceful setting. The wildlife is abundant. We did several treks on their amazing friendly horses and had enjoyable lessons to bring on our riding skills. I don’t think you can see the black mountains any better than on horse back, the scenery is spectacular! Huge thanks to our welcoming hosts Carol and Hayden and our trekking guides Katy, Lucy and Daisy who are lovely, hard working and made it a fantastic experience for us.

Set alongside the beautiful Menai Straits with stunning views of Caernarfon Castle and the Snowdonia mountain range beyond, you won't find horse riding in more involving surroundings.Our 5 miles of private bridleways will give you a fantastic, safe introduction to riding, and we're sure that more experienced riders will find plenty here to challenge them too. BOOKING ESSENTIAL.

This horse riding school is an amazing place for anyone who loves horses or riding. The staff are ever so helpful and patient, nothing is too much trouble for them. We take our 6 year old Granddaughter there each week and she so loves it. You can have different times and also take the horses out on walks and treks to enjoy the fab views. The horses are looked after very well and they range in various sizes from small to very big ones, great for different abilities for people. they always have fresh hay and straw and water and you can see the staff all enjoy their work there, the best horse stable I have seen. Views from around there are amazing.

My daughter and I spent 3 days riding here (I'm 58, she's 30) and would encourage anyone who likes horses to go for this experience. This team are so well organised and professional that whatever your level of ability and experience they'll have you enjoying yourself and building your confidence. (Group rides are split down to assist with this, and a myriad of support riders means you get lots of support if you need it, and great company if you don't (Ang, Lynn and Jess you were stars - thank you!).) The beach rides are truly fantastic - you won't be disappointed. We were really impressed and hope to return. Local accommodation in the lovely Glebe House - and cracking breakfasts - made it all very relaxing, and as an added bonus, every local eatery we tried for dinner was excellent (especially The Haven).

Had an amazing time! I’m an absolute novice whilst my partner has had some previous experience riding. I was super nervous but the instructors where fantastic and really helpful with tips and advice for when my horse (Jaycob) thought he could stop for a grass snack at any given opportunity haha. I felt more confident as the time went on! It really exceeded my expectations and we would definitely do it again! Highly recommend for anyone wanting a different experience whilst visiting wales :)

I went on the one and a half hour mountain hack today- truly brilliant. I rode a gorgeous very willing cob called Mabon. He was delightful, as was Elly who led the hack. We went up high on the hillside, the sun was shining and the views were amazing. Mabon and I both really enjoyed the canters on the grass when we got to the top of where we were going. Thanks Ellie and thanks Mabon!

Rosie was DELIGHTFUL, got the measure of us really quickly and we had great rapport throughout. The horses were suitably interesting - not just plodding around, but also really safe and sturdy over some quite dodgy cliffs. Such spectacular views and a total delight. Really worth every penny. Couldn't recommend more.

My sister and I are accomplished riders and decided we would like to go for a hack. Phoned these guys at short notice and they were able to accommodate us. Sarah took us out for an hour and we had a lovely ride on two wonderful horses. The scenery is a bonus too. They also have an indoor riding school.
