Your holiday base for the weekend is the seaside town of Barbate. The town provides a fantastic setting for a horse riding holiday destination. As well as superb horse riding and a fantastic beach, Barbate has a lovely promenade. With ice-cream parlours, bars and restaurants, the promenade is ideal for relaxing after horse riding. Barbate also has a great town centre with shopping, a lovely town square and a superb fish and fruit market. During your weekend with us you will experience the many delights that our horse riding offers and be able to enjoy the adventure of a typical Spanish town.
We use the comfortable and well-appointed beach front hotel Adiafa for our accommodation. The hotel is excellent, and being family run is very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is located only 50 metres from the sea front, and has spacious twin-bedded rooms with on-suite bathroom. The hotel is fully air-conditioned and has free wi-fi internet connection. Solo travellers are allocated their own bedroom and guests travelling together are allocated shared bedrooms.
Our full board horse riding vacations are ideal for both single and group bookings. The groups are kept small and create a great friendly atmosphere. You will meet like-minded people and have new friends by the end of the holiday. The rides are led by ourselves, Steve and Caroline, and the maximum group size is kept to six. Our aim is to provide a value for money all-inclusive horse riding vacation that is a dream come true. All your needs will be well taken care of so that you can enjoy a stress-free holiday.
The hotel is west facing and receives the afternoon sun. Rooms with a spacious balcony and sea view are available with the payment of a supplement. These balconies are perfect for sunbathing or chilling out watching the sun set. The basic cost of the holiday includes a room without a balcony and sea view.
Two guests travelling together will be allocated a shared twin bedroom. For three or more guests on a booking, shared twin and triple rooms will be allocated. All triple rooms have a balcony and sea view and the balcony upgrade for a triple use room will not be applied. A supplement can be paid by guests to guarantee single use bedrooms if preferred.
Solo travellers will be allocated a single use bedroom to themselves and a single room supplement will be charged.
Non riders are welcome, and the area is a good base for non riding vacations with many other sports available. The local public transport is good, and information can be provided on local places of interest.
The vacations would not be complete without good food and drink. Buffet breakfasts are available at the Adiafa, and lunches are taken after the ride in traditional 'tapas' bars.
