Some recent customer comments:

Just to say many thanks for our wonderful trek from your superb stables. There were 20 of us in 2 groups a couple of weeks ago, unfortunately we never got the chance to return to you before the end of our holiday, but we would all have liked to! My daughter is still talking about riding 'her' pony whilst on holiday. Everyone at the stables was friendly and knowledgable and what particularly impressed us all was your knowledge and understanding of your horses and ponies.
Good luck to you all with your animals, especially Salt and Pepper and Cleona (for her foaling next spring).

Christiane.

 

Hello. Time flies and it has been flying ever since I came back home from Ireland. I should have written to you earlier for timely thank you and am sorry that it took so long. I really enjoyed each day of my time in Sligo thanks to you and your horses. You have wonderful horses and the way you run your programme is really excellent. I hope to go back and visit your place again; maybe next year. I took a couple of lessons after returning from my holiday. I still run into some of my old habits from time to time (old habits die hard!) but am learning to breathe better and to keep my legs softer. I will concentrate on these two for now. At least, my being more relaxed and my legs softer pleased an Arab jumper the other day ; she can be very prickly and has a strong mouth to pull. She was most cooperative this time. There is still a long way to go but I hope I can make improvement, albeit very slowly! wonder if you found an alligator pen on a peg for Pablo's bridle. It was meant for two lovely kids at the stable. I took some photos while I was at your place, including two photos of Elisa (and lots of horses). So when I have some time I will burn them onto a CD and send it to you. I hope everything is going well with you and everyone is fine. Give my best regards to the stable staff and the horses!

Hi,

We have been riding with you a few times over the past year or so when we come down for weekends to Sligo. We've been learning to ride over the past while in a few different stables and we wish we had come to Island View first.  The centered riding learning experience is the best way to learn. We felt we learnt as much here in one hour as we did in six months elsewhere.  Cantering on the beach with the backdrop of the mountains is one of best life experiences to date... We will be back...we love it

 

Hi Ursula and Raymond,

many thanks indeed for a fantastic time at your stables - I will definitely be back for a longer stay, and be thoroughly recommending you folks at my local stables... Your horses really are the best mannered and happiest I've ridden in Ireland - really...  (and I've done a bit of travelling around and riding)..
All the best to you and the team, and hope this week is a little less hectic :))

Warmest wishes
Dawn
