We are a riding and competing family who are happy to share our facilities with riders who wish to bring their own horses for days out or longer stays. (Unfortunately we cannot offer trekking or hire of horses.) We also offer livery facilities for a small number of horses (see bottom of page).

Enjoy spectacular views and stunning scenery, whilst you exercise and have fun with your horse.

If you would like to stay longer in the area and ride your horse from host to host for anything from 2 to 10 days we can organise holidays through Wales On Horseback. The Gweryd Lake owners, Robin and Jeanette Mitchell are founder directors of Wales On Horseback, which is a non-profit making co-operative promoting and organising trail riding in north east Wales.
