Recently we
reported about our staff canyoning adventures courtesy of Vertical Descents. Much
fun was had and we were definitely inspired to advise guests of what to do in
the area if you don’t want to trudge up a hill. And as we want to provide great
service, we thought we had to apply ourselves and explore other activities too…, very selflessly, just to advise the
guests of course…
As hard
rocks and cold water are not every bodies cup of tea , Loes organised an
activity of the equine variety at Lettershuna Riding Centre where she has her
cheeky cob Charlie in livery.
In 4 small
groups we headed off to Lettershuna in Appin where we mounted our trusted
steeds to go for an hour long guided walk out on Appin Bay.
Timed to
coincide with low tides the ride took us on to the beach and past Castle
Stalker, with one ride being so lucky as to be able to cross behind it. This
was a challenge for Jamie who did the guiding on foot and who’s wellies were
about to fill up with salty water but we all a managed to come back with dry
feet.
Most of the
rides took place in walk with the odd trot, which was received with mixed
responses,
Feedback was
that everybody had a great time and some are already planning rides in the near
future.
If you want
to enjoy a ride on Appin beach with one of these lovely ponies in the company
of Jamie Craig, please contact Lettershuna Riding Centre.
