This day was absolutely brilliant, went with 7 friends, a couple of whom were experienced riders but the majority of whom had never been on a horse before, were scared of them and one poor person dragged along said she hated them! lol. They gave us all horses to match our ability, and they have over 400 acres of wilderness... More

We spent the afternoon at Sheans Horse farm with our 2 young children (2 & 5), meeting the horses and ponies and watching a horse being shod! The kids were given two of the loveliest ponies Puddin & Mervyn, who took us on many circles of the beginners paddock. We were then given a guided tour of one of the... More

I went to Sheans Horse Farm with my friends to celebrate my 25th birthday and we all had so much fun. Danny (the owner) was brilliant - my friends have little experience (if any) on horses and he helped to build up their confidence and put them at ease. We were given horses to suit our ability and if we... More

We had taken a trip to some of the main attractions (I thought), Giants Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge and so on. But all in our party declared the highlight of our visit was the Pony Trekking. The Staff were great, chatty, helpful and fun. We had a range of skills and ages including a 6yr old and were well catered... More

You can imagine that a family of 4, none of whom have ever sat on horse before were seriously mulling over whether booking this had been a good idea as we approached the farm. Nervous excitement does not begin to describe it. We needn't have worried. Despite turning up 15 minutes late (much as I'd like to blame the wife's... More

A beautiful farm with beautiful horses! We were first greeted by a friendly chocolate lab who follow us on the trail the whole time :) The staff was very friendly and helpful. There were 2 other riders with me and my husband, but the trainer gave us all good attention and made sure we were all OK and keeping up... More
