Equestrian Connection (2 weeks)

We offer a unique opportunity for horse lovers to truly immerse themselves and experience the joy of being with and riding horses day after day along the stunning Wild Coast of South Africa. Join us for an extended holiday to rejuvenate your inner love of horses, reconnect with who you are and restore your soul.

This day you will meet our horses for the first time.

Bring along your spirit of adventure and a love of great outdoors and escape to our horse filled life in South Africa.  Our horses are much loved; they are a mixture of Arab, Boerperd, Thoroughbred and Percheron crosses that are perfect for trail riding. You will be delighted by how gentle, well trained and friendly they are!  The trail team is kept endurance fit to be able to complete our adventure trails along the coast, while our younger horses are brought on carefully with ground work and schooling. While you are with us, you become part of our family and are made to feel welcome in our relaxed and comfortable home from home called Nguni House.

You are welcome to participate in and be part of the daily routine of caring for our horses and stable yard and understanding and practicing the principles of holistic horse care of horses that live out all year round in the African bush.

Our horses live out 24/7 in paddocks situated at the Kei Mouth Country Club about 2.5km from the house where we live.  We go to the yard every day and bring the horses in for feeding, grooming and a preventative health check.  The mornings are spent riding and schooling the horses or going out on a beach or bush ride.  Afternoon rides depend on how hot it is and in winter, we need to be back before the sunsets. The horses are fed again in the afternoon and turned out for the night.

Your riding program will be tailored to suit your riding ability and experience as this holiday can accommodate for all riding levels.

Besides helping out at the morning stable if you want to, you will get to do all our lovely outrides around Kei Mouth and Morgan Bay as well as our day rides over the river to the waterfalls or Trennerys or Seagulls for a pub lunch. There is plenty of time for beach and nature walks.  For the brave, you can also book with Clint to do a deep-sea fishing/photo trip.  One thing we know for sure is that when it’s time to leave, you’ll wish that you had stayed longer.

Take part in an awesome one day ‘Riding with Touch Workshop’ run by Klara.
This is an introduction to Ride with Your Mind and TTouch methodologies.  
Olympic Event rider Ingrid Klimke, who rode with us a few years back uses TTouch as part of her training program.  These principles are part of the foundation that our horses schooling has been built upon, and what makes them exceptional trail horses.

In the first part of your holiday, you will do a Riding with touch workshop with Klara who is a SAEF level 1 instructors qualifications (2000)(same as BHS) Ttouch Equine Practitioner 2 (2016) Ttouch Companion Animal Practitioner (2020) Virgin Active Group Exercise Instructor (2017).  

With new found skills and perceptions to apply to the horses for the rest of your stay, it will change your mindset on how we are connected.  
Then, the rest of the time is more riding, more walks, more soaking up the remoteness of where we are and the raw beauty of the place that we call home.

PLEASE NOTE All riding and itineraries are subject to change due to variations in local conditions, hotel accommodation availability, rider’s abilities, the weather & the influences of the sea tides and during the rainy
