Horses
We have 35 horse stalls, all recently renovated to the latest standards. Brightness and cleanliness are our strong points. We own 6 schooling horses for all rider needs, from the beginner to the most experienced.
Our qualified staff will take care 7/7 days of your horses, upon request taking them to our pastures (10,000 m2) next to the stable. Other numerous services are available upon request
Riding school
The riding school is structured to cover any training needs of our students. Children or beginners who wish to start riding horses are taken over by Roberta, who through her patience and experience manages to achieve amazing goals in a relatively short time. Elena, on the other hand, takes care of preparation for competitions and those who want a higher level of training with their horse. The synergy between horse and rider is expanded to the highest level.

A neat and distinguished environment will welcome you making these dressage days special. We boast the presence of international and national judges recognized for professionalism and competence throughout Europe.
