Portugal, Santarem - Dressage & WE

We are pleased to present another dressage gem in Portugal. Welcome to a large farm with a rich history and tradition. Around this expansive family farm, relatives have chosen to settle, and now the entire village is more or less a family legacy, complete with its own beautiful church in the center.

Rui, the owner and operator of the large farm, is the third generation, and he is passionate about managing and further developing his heritage. In addition, he is an architect and a skilled rider who takes the reins of several horses each day. When he met your trainer, Pedro (who previously managed one of our other highly popular dressage destinations), they decided to open their doors to riders from other countries. Fantastic horses were already on-site, along with an indoor school, a swimming pool, and a talented chef, so one of the many buildings was quickly renovated into comfortable guest rooms.

You can choose between evolving lessons in classical dressage or the increasingly popular discipline of working equitation (WE). The horses are Lusitanos, trained up to Grand Prix movements with a calm and good temperament. Most often, Rui and Pedro join you at mealtimes, contributing to the feeling of being a welcomed guest.

If you want to enhance your riding skills through private lessons on first-class horses in a warm and rustic farm environment, this is the right place for you.
