🐴 Our much-loved Welsh Section A, Jack! 🐴

Often found modelling a fancy plait and a bow in his tail, Jack certainly knows how to look the part! 🎀✨

But it’s his wonderfully patient and kind nature that makes him so special. He’s a firm favourite with our youngest riders, who absolutely adore him. 💕

A little pony with a big personality, Jack has a very special place in all our hearts. 🥰🐎

Our final Pony Camp of the summer has been packed with riding, grooming, yard work, teepee making, picking rosehips, nature crafts and plenty of time spent with the ponies.

A lovely mix of horses, nature, creativity and outdoor fun, with lots of new skills learnt along the way.

Meet Galan 🧡

Introducing Galan, our handsome 15hh Argentinian gelding 🇦🇷. He’s a calm, easygoing soul who’s always happy to take life at his own pace.

Galan is never in a rush and loves taking his time, whether he’s out on a trek or simply enjoying his surroundings. He’s a real sweetheart who would much rather quietly enjoy the journey than compete for attention.

With his relaxed nature and gentle personality, Galan is a lovely member of the Westerlands team and a firm favourite on the yard. 🥰
