Summer Camps for 2021
There is a range of camps, which are suitable for
everyone, from novice riders up to the more
experienced riders. Usually, run over one or more
days, each includes lots of fun and looking after
ponies, with the option to camp and you can bring
your pony or borrow one from Severnvale. Due to
the COVID-19 restrictions these will not involve an
overnight stay.
These instructional camps are run for children so
that they can enjoy the thrill of owning their pony
for a few days.
This year there will be four camps of mixed ability,
each run under the professional supervision of
qualified staff; allowing each child to receive
valuable training in riding and stable management.
The price includes lessons, food & stabling for your
child's pony or horse or the use of a school pony.
Camp details
Each camp involves three days of activities with lots
of learning, lots of riding but most of all, lots of fun
with our equine friends. Participants can develop
their confidence and skills, as these camps are
suitable for novice riders from age six years old,
including those on lead reins, right through to more
experienced riders. Including riders who can canter
and are learning how to jump; through to those who
can confidently jump a course and have a working
knowledge of caring for their pony or horse.
These 3-day Camps start at 9.00 am each day and
finish at 5.00 pm on Tuesday and Wednesday, but
at 7.30 pm on Thursday, including a campfire,
snacks and games.
The cost is £200 (non-refundable deposit £60 -
cancellation fee may apply)
Individual days can be accommodated at a cost of
£70 per day.
