The Experience

Hello! :) We are looking for someone who can help with horse riding lessons and saddle and prepare horses. We have a horse farm with a campsite. As soon as the campsite opens (from the end of March) we will organize many horse activities, riding lessons and outdoor rides. Do you really enjoy to help saddle/prepare the pony's/horses, taking riders on outdoor rides and supervising other horse activities? Then we are looking for you!

I had a really great stay! The atmosphere was lovely and I really enjoyed my time there. The work can be quite demanding and there is a lot to do, but overall it was a great experience. Without a car, getting to nearby towns can be a bit more difficult, but it is definitely manageable with some planning. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend it!

I highly recommend this experience, especially for anyone who wants to disconnect from their usual routine and escape the city for a while! I connected really well with the other volunteers, and they were definitely one of the best parts of the experience :) The place is very pleasant, and although the work can sometimes feel a bit intense, it is quite manageable. I also learned a lot of new things about animal care. You get to interact with the guests as well, and they are generally very friendly and pleasant. Thank you so much for this experience!

In general I had a really good first experience and I'm very grateful for the hosts, the family were always kind, polite and happy to help or answer questions. the camping is beautiful , the lake is literally a 3 minute walk away, super clean and refreshing during the heatwave! Bikes are always available to explore nearby towns. there were 7 others, it felt like a little community with shared meals etc!! The work was expected but hard, i was constantly sick or recovering bc i was tired. i didnt get to ride much bc of heatwave and the horses were busy w lessons which i understand. i had fun!!
