Springhill Farm Riding Stables

The riding stables situated on the Wales / England border, overlooking the Ceiriog Valley giving instant access to great off road riding on tracks, fields and bridleways. From an hour's trek to enjoy the scenery, a fast hack to enjoy the lovely horses, a lesson in flat work or jumping with our qualified instructor, a day ride or trek for all levels of riders to a residential holiday or trail ride in this lovely part of Wales.

I love this place! Everything about it from the wonderful horses, staff, scenery and friendly atmosphere. I came here 10 and 8 years ago with my University riding club and loved it back then! We decided to come back this year to relive our youths and we were not disappointed! Fantastic fast paced rides with plenty of canters and gallops, stunning scenery and views, the horses were wonderful, fit and well cared for. Ellie, Liz and Dawn were fantastic trek leaders and really looked after us and made sure we had fun each time. It was lovely to see Steve and Sue again and we enjoyed the BBQ and picnic and pub stops en route again too! This is such a fantastic place - we have now decided to make this an annual riding holiday trip and we are all so glad we decided to come back nearly a decade later! Thank you so much to all the staff and horses!

Wow! What a hidden gem in the countryside. Beautiful backdrop to the outside sculptures which you can hire a buggy and go around if you don't fancy walking. The inside sculptures are placed all over, dont forget to look up too! Great Christmas area for gifts and the tea room entices you with the smells of fresh coffee and warm scones when you walk in. Fantastic place to visit, I will be back for more... plenty of parking, very friendly and informative team of staff with a selection of outside garden pots and ornaments for sale so you can take something home too.

We have used the laser for a few times for the kid's birthday parties and the service has always been great and the kids love it! We decided to try out the 'Lost in Space' escape room and it didn't disappoint. Myself, my partner and the kids aged 10 and 11 really enjoyed it. There was lots of puzzles and problem solving and the set up was fab and well thought out. Paul was a great host as always. Would definitely recommend.

Phoned the track the morning of our planned visit to see if they had any availability and the last on the phone was very helpful, managed to squeeze us in later that day for a gold format race with 6 other people, we arrived early as we always like to see the track and be ready for race time, all the staff were very friendly and helpful, all facilities are clean and well maintained, once we were signed in we were briefed regarding track rules etc, then it was race time, got to say it’s probably the best outdoor track in the area, karts were very well maintained and drove very good, all in all a great few hours having fun with my 16year old son, would highly recommend this as an activity for adults and children over 8 I think! Will definitely return next year and want to plan a corporate event
