Couldn't recommend Hollywood Horse and Pony Trekking enough. It is my third time coming to do this trek with my boyfriend and we enjoyed ourselves just as much as the first time. The horses are well looked after and well mannered. Ray and Lisa make sure that you are put on a horse to suit your abilities, especially if you are a bit nervous they are constantly checking in on you during the trek asking how your feeling and giving you some pointers to help you along. They also split the group up if needed for those who want to canter, ensuring everyone gets the experience they want. A brilliant activity to do with family or friends around anytime of there year, I can't wait to come back.

Myself and my boyfriend went for our 7 year anniversary. We were complete beginners and had no idea about horse riding. I can safely say I am so grateful for choosing Hollywood horse and Pony trekking to be my first time. Ray is so kind, funny and comforting. He made us both feel safe immediately, we knew we were in the right hands as beginners. They even provide you with boots and helmets so everything you need is just yourself - they even provide confidence! Ray is incredibly experienced and he and his partner have trained the horses incredibly well. Every horse was so well behaved and just beautiful. The scenery is next to godly, with beautiful hills and astonishing views. Fields full of foals and horses, greenery everywhere, this truly is a paradise. Worth every single penny and we will 100% be returning for a giggle with Ray (and Lisa, she’s great) THANKS GUYS!!!

Great experience for beginner and advanced riders. Our group was all experienced equestrians, so we were able to go a bit quicker and really have some fun. Not just your average nose-to-tail ride (unless you want that, in which case that can be done). The scenery was beautiful, and Ray was a fun and lively guide. Recommend!
