“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.
Following our recent move to Belstane Manor, The Scottish Equestrian Centre is now situated on the site of Belstane Castle, the fourteenth century home of Robert the Bruce. From here we offer all the facilities of a top class holiday and riding centre, including our famous Scottish Castles Trail.
Our hospitality and location allows our guests to relax in comfort and immerse themselves in the tranquility of our surroundings, and to enjoy the views to distant Ben Lomond.
We look forward to welcoming you.
