What a place! Absolutely stunning venue, all the animals are loved and cherished. Staff are super friendly and supportive to parents and children who visit. Our daughter has loved riding and helping out. It brings her such joy and peace. Thank you everyone, the ranch is a special place for us all to visit.
Our child absolutely loves horse riding/horse care sessions. Staff are friendly, encouraging and caring. It’s been great to see how the site and facilities have developed since opening. For N it’s an hours oasis in a beautiful setting and an opportunity to be himself and have a break from the challenges in his life. It’s brilliant, thank you!

The Child and Youth Heartfelt Ranch is a lovely calming place that my four children, two with autism and additional needs love coming to. My five-year-old is so calm and happy when he rides the horses. They enjoy the grooming too and it is a special place to us as a family where we can come, and the children can explore and be safe.
