“At The Scottish Equestrian Centre, working with horses has always been our passion. Since opening in 1986, we’ve grown to become the largest horse riding holiday centre in the UK, which is something we’re very proud of.

Relax in the peace, comfort and tranquility of our five star hospitality, enjoy our famous Castles Trail Ride, and surround yourself with some of the most beautiful countryside in Scotland.

We look forward to seeing you.”
