Horses

The biggest influence on the world's all horse breeds has the Arabian, but not without the support of the powerful North African Berber horse, which, in turn, gave rise to the Spanish Horse. Here you will find 18 colts and two geldings. Most are crosses between the Arabian and Berber horse.

The center tries to have strong, lively and brave horses. The horses are approximately 150-160 cm (59-63 in) at the withers. There are also two cute pony stallions along with two b-ponies that looks like mini-andalusians. They stand in the same stall, but when let out into the pasture together, they fight like two playful boys. 

You will notice how well-managed the horses are based on the way they react to each other. Although they are stallions, they can be ridden close to each other without getting irritated. All horses are ridden in the English style and with English saddles and bridles.

Feedback from our travellers

Unforgettable Trail Rides and Galloping in the Water
The trail rides were wonderful, and galloping in the water was fantastic. The ride up into the mountains was also an amazing experience. Maira Ehnberg Leffler

Perfect Climate and Activities for the Whole Family
Tunisia, when we visited at the end of October, was absolutely perfect. The weather was just right, and even as someone who dislikes cold water, I found the sea pleasant for swimming. Everyone in the family rode, so we had plenty of activities besides swimming and relaxing. Nina Johansson

Exciting Trail Rides and Engaged Instructors
Lovely, varied trail rides with lots of speed and fun jumping in the arena. Very good instructors who were engaged in both the people, the riding, and the horses.
Hanna Nilsson

A Trip That Exceeded Expectations
Excellent. The hotel had a very high standard, with friendly and accommodating staff. My family members who do not ride were very pleased with the destination. This trip is absolutely perfect for those who want to ride while the rest of the family enjoys sun and swimming. I have taken several trips with you, and all have met my expectations, but Tunisia exceeded them.
Sylvia Larsson

Fantastic Horses and Helpful Staff
The horses were incredible—beautiful, well-kept, and so well-known by the staff. They knew them inside and out. Always helpful, you never felt unsafe. If you had any questions, they answered willingly. I was curious about the horses, and you could come and watch them anytime and pet them. You felt very welcome. Eva and Linnéa Hellevik

Wonderful Beach Rides and Luxurious Accommodation
Beautiful hotel—I highly recommend the all-inclusive option. We rode on the beach every day—amazing! Very well-kept horses, in great condition with shiny coats. We rode three hours a day, and the rest of the time we enjoyed the hotel’s facilities, including all-inclusive dining, a jacuzzi, and more. We had an amazing time!
Susanne Ledin Eriksson

Personalized Riding and Beautiful Horses
Very flexible, and they adapted everything to suit me and what I liked. Great feedback from instructors, and I improved my riding. The horses were stunning, well-trained, and each had its own personality. Hedi and Kimo took incredible care of me—I almost felt like part of the team.
Emma Lindqvist

Perfect for Families with Young Riders
Clean, fresh, spacious rooms. Lovely lobby! Delicious food, and plenty of it! Beautiful horses! Nothing to complain about. A lovely little pony that our five-year-old rode for a short ride, and it seemed very suitable for children. Unbelievably good value for money. The spa could be highlighted more, as well as the excellent kids’ club. There’s also a wonderfully warm indoor pool, making it possible to swim even if it’s not warm outside. This is truly a perfect destination for families with children who ride, offering different levels of riding ability so everyone can be happy. Lots of activities such as mini-golf, shooting, table tennis, and boules are also available!
Petra Sundström

Fantastic Food and Amazing Riding Experiences
The food was fantastic. The buffet had something for everyone, even our picky son. The trail rides were wonderful—galloping in the water was amazing. The ride up into the mountains was also an unforgettable experience. We took a few lessons, two to check our riding skills and one jumping lesson. The lessons were good, especially the first two, to get used to their approach and the fact that they use stallions. The jumping lesson was fun, but not very technical. The whole family had a great time, even those who didn’t ride. There was so much to do at the hotel that we hardly left the premises.
Maira Ehnberg Leffler

Exquisite Food and a Well-Managed Stable
The food was exquisite! Large selection, French-inspired cuisine. Well-maintained stables, great horses, fun instructors, good variety—so much fun! Everything was tailored to each rider’s personality, skill level, and experience. The horses were well taken care of and steady, even though they were stallions. The staff showed great care and love for their horses. We are very, very satisfied!
