The staff at GoTrekking went out of their way to ensure that we were matched with horses that suited us, that we were safe on our horses, and finally, that we had an amazing time. I would recommend the GoTrekking beach ride to anyone;

We took part in the first ever Ride & Tide equestrian festival run by the Westport Woods Hotel in Westport earlier this month and it was just fantastic. I was horse riding, on one of the go trekking horses. Others were cycling on mountain bikes and some kayakers joined us in the sea as well. Really well organised event. We're looking forward to the next one.

The owner Michael, who was a fantastic host and a pleasure to meet. His knowledge of the area was superb which gave us wonderful experiences when we went horse riding. His personality made the experience as he was great fun, an excellent horseman and really knowledgeable about all things equine.

I was travelling around Ireland by myself ,,,I had the BEST rides. A 2 hour trek through the hills and trails, the rain drizzling, the horses hooves clopping along on the bitumen roads and then picking their way through the farmers fields….a 3 hour ride along the ocean front, through the surf, along the sand, galloping, strolling through the shallow water, swimming across a deeper channel perched on top of the horses back trying not to get TOO wet!. It was a wonderful adventure and one I can highly recommend.

As a short break it was lovely and provided everything that a wanted. Staff were extremely friendly, the horse that I was given to ride was a joy and the scenery was breath taking. I hope very much to return in the near future.

Myself and my buddy managed to escape from the domestic drudgery of babies and kids, running a home. The owner of the hotel Michael Lennon took us out personally and we had a fantastic ride across the most amazing beach you can imagine. For exhilarating beach riding - wow this is it. The hot ports on the way back were much appreciated also - Irish hospitality at its best! What a hidden gem of a place, and can't believe it rights on my doorstep.
