点评:I booked a 2-hour farm ride for my sister and myself and had big expectations which were sadly not met.
The ride itself was very tame, with the most exciting part being walking down a sheep field in order to canter a hundred or so meters up again. It wasn't possible to ride a round route, we were only a few hundred meters from the farm at any one time and doubled back on ourselves on steep, stony paths.
We're both experienced riders and would NOT recommend this experience if you have any ambitions beyond the novelty of riding huge, rare-breed giants (who were admittedly gorgeous and very sweet). The staff on the yard was very professional and kind and apologised when we admitted to feeling very underwhelmed and deflated. It was just frustrating to spend so much time standing around and at a slow walk. The canters were a highlight but came way too short.
Sadly I would say this experience (the farm ride in October) is not worth the £110 per person price tag.
On a more positive note, the horses were lovely and it was interesting to learn more about heavy breeds. The landscape is spectacular and they have a wide variety of riding boots, hats, gloves and even coats to borrow, if like me, you're travelling light.
翻译:我为我和姐姐预订了 2 小时的农场骑行,我们抱有很大的期望,但遗憾的是没有实现。
骑行本身非常平淡,最令人兴奋的部分是沿着羊场走下去,然后再次慢跑一百米左右。骑行路线不可能绕一圈,我们每次都离农场只有几百米,沿着陡峭的石路绕回来。
我们都是经验丰富的骑手,如果您除了骑巨大的稀有品种的巨马(不可否认它们非常漂亮和可爱)的新奇感之外还有其他野心,不推荐这种体验。院子里的工作人员非常专业和友好,当我们承认感觉非常失望和沮丧时,他们道歉了。花这么多时间站在那里,慢慢地走路,真是令人沮丧。慢跑是亮点,但时间太短了。
遗憾的是,我想说这次体验(十月份的农场骑行)不值每人 110 英镑的价格。
积极的一面是,这里的马很可爱,而且了解重型马品种也很有趣。这里的风景很壮观,如果你像我一样轻装旅行,这里还有各种各样的马靴、帽子、手套甚至外套可以借用。
