Beach Rides
Have you ever dreamt of cantering along a beach? Well now you can!
We meet at the local village pub, The Oyster Catcher then hack to the picturesque beach at Climping, Littlehampton, where you will have an opportunity for some lovely long sandy canters.
Afterwards we like to visit the pub for a post-ride drink and a natter.
What is included?
We travel down to Climping in our horsebox from our yard in Cranleigh. You can either meet us there or travel with us if you wish. The beach is a short hack away and there will opportunities to canter, gallop and also jump the groynes.
We recommend you allow 3-4 hours for the whole experience (mounting, hacking to the beach, the ride itself, returning and loading the horses, then the pub afterwards), longer if you are travelling in the horsebox with us.
