What our customers say.....

What an amazing day! Elise catered for the difference in our riding abilities and confidence perfectly! I was partnered with a quiet horse. Elise made sure I felt safe the entire ride while also making sure we found time for my partner to get her cowgirl on! An amazing riding experience for all riding abilities!

Donna

Words cannot fully express how much fun we had on the sunset trail ride with Elise. We had an amazing time learning about the stunning horses we were riding, taking in the beautiful scenery and finishing off with a delicious platter and wine. We will, without a doubt be returning. We have already recommended the trail rides to friends and family.

Michaela

Our guide Elise was amazing, she made sure we were comfortable while giving us that little push to go that extra step. By the end of our time my wife was trotting about the arena full of confidence. I cannot recommend this riding centre highly enough, we will be coming back!

Adam

Yattalunga Riding Centre is a supportive, patient, experienced riding school. They have a lovely stable with horses all fit, clean and well-treated. I recommend you to come and try a lesson or two, even some adventurous trail rides out in the beautiful paddocks.

Ruby

Highly recommend Yattalunga Riding Centre to anyone wanting to experience a safe, welcoming and comfortable horse riding adventure. Its something you'll never forget! Elise and her crew are true professionals and will make you feel relaxed and very much at home.

Elise

My second great ride at Yattalunga. Caught up with a riding buddy and had a beautiful two hour jaunt through the hills, with plenty of trotting and a couple of canters. Lovely horses, really laid back and all chill with each other. Very safety-conscious staff. Can't wait for my next ride - hmm; Dash or Wyatt? Thanks Elise!

Jeannie

Had so much fun on our 1 hour trail ride. Elise made sure my sister Shelley and I felt comfortable and safe at all times, being so long since riding a horse. Beautiful countryside and horses are so well behaved. Will definitely be going again.

We are so lucky to have found Yattalunga Riding Centre for our little guy. This place has been an absolute safe space, where he has always been met with kindness, patience and understanding. Elise has a real understanding of neuro-diversity, and the equine mentoring sessions along with the riding classes have always been an absolute highlight of his week. For anyone looking at a riding school for their little one I highly recommend.

We had an awesome trail ride at YRC. Elise was a fantastic guide and made us feel very safe and reassured as beginner riders. It is clear she is an excellent and caring trainer as her horses are of excellent temperament and well presented. The property is beautiful to ride on and the hour flew by super quick! We will definitely be back!
