🎃 HALLOWEEN AT LAUREL VIEW IS HERE! 👻🐴

After such a brilliant summer of Morning With My Pony sessions and Pony Days, we couldn’t resist bringing them back for Halloween… just with a few extra spooktacular surprises thrown in!

We were absolutely delighted to see our August Morning With My Pony sessions fully booked, so if you missed out over the summer, or your little rider has been asking when the next one is, this is your chance!

Our Halloween activities are designed to give children more than just time in the saddle. They’ll get involved with their pony, build confidence, develop practical horse-care skills and have plenty of fun along the way… with some Halloween twists planned too. 🎃

🎃 Multi-booking discount: £5 per person, per day discount when two or more children from the same family attend, or two or more days are booked.

Spaces are limited, and payment is required to secure your place. Our summer dates filled quickly, so we’d recommend booking early if you have a particular day in mind.
