About this activity

Bursted Manor is a haven for families seeking a day of adventure, bonding, and outdoor fun. With a diverse range of activities, welcoming facilities, and natural beauty to explore, this family-friendly destination promises an unforgettable experience for all.

One of the primary draws of Bursted Hill Stables is, of course, its equestrian offerings. Families can embark on guided horseback riding adventures suitable for all skill levels. From gentle pony rides for the littlest ones to more extensive trail rides through scenic woodlands for older children and adults, there's a horse waiting to make a new friend with every family member. Knowledgeable instructors ensure that even first-timers feel comfortable and confident in the saddle.

For those who may not be ready to hop on a horse just yet, the stables offer hands-on experiences with their friendly ponies. Children can groom, brush, and interact with these gentle creatures under the watchful eye of experienced staff. It's an opportunity to learn about horse care and build a connection with these magnificent animals.

Bursted Hill Stables is more than just horses. The surrounding natural beauty invites families to explore the great outdoors. The well-marked trails lead through woodlands, meadows, and along gentle streams. This is the perfect setting for a leisurely family walk, wildlife spotting, and even a picnic amidst nature. The fresh country air and lush greenery provide a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Learning is always fun at Bursted Hill Stables. They offer educational workshops and demonstrations that engage both kids and adults. From equine anatomy and behavior to understanding the role of horses in history and culture, these workshops provide valuable insights and a deeper appreciation for these majestic animals.

Younger children have their own dedicated play areas, complete with swings, slides, and climbing frames. These safe and exciting spaces let kids burn off some energy while parents relax nearby. It's a great opportunity for youngsters to make new friends and build lasting memories.
