Your Irish Equestrian Adventure Awaits

Welcome to Crindle Bespoke Equestrian Ireland:

We specialise in private authentic horseback riding adventures across Ireland’s stunning landscapes. Exploring scenic trails, riding along the coast, or discovering hidden gems in Northern Ireland, we offer personalised experiences for all levels of riders. Immerse yourself in Ireland's rich culture and heritage, with luxury and tradition at the heart of every ride.

Who We Are

Our family-owned business is located in Northern Ireland. We’re passionate about horses, the land, and our farm’s rich heritage. We offer authentic luxury experiences for all types of guests—from adventurous family getaways to couples exploring off the beaten track.

Our aim is to give you a true taste of traditional Irish farm life, where horses have been part of our heritage for generations. Whether you’re an experienced rider or new to horseback, we ensure you feel comfortable and confident, once-in-a-lifetime experiences for all.

What you can expect from an experience at Crindle:

Your adventure begins with a warm welcome at our farm. There’s no better way to meet us than with a cup of tea and a good chat in our antique 1700s drawing room in our antique 1700s drawing room, where we’ll share stories, our heritage, and a bit of Irish hospitality. It’s the perfect chance to get to know us, making you feel right at home from the moment you arrive.

Meet, Connect, and Ride

Meet our Irish horses and discover the stories that make each one unique. Take a behind-the-scenes tour of our working farm, meeting sheep or even your own Irish horse, depending on the season. Whether grooming or simply relaxing with them, we’ll pair you with the horse that best fits your personality and experience. Raised from foals, our horses trust us—and we trust them. Each has a unique character, like Daisy, our prim and proper lady; Barbie, our sassy strawberry roan diva; or Rocky, our gentle giant, known for his calm and caring nature. They’re family, and we can’t wait for you to meet them.

Deepen your connection with a riding session. Beginners will learn basic skills like stopping and steering, while experienced riders can bond with their horse and explore its personality. Whether it’s your first ride or your hundredth, you’ll gain confidence while soaking in Ireland’s stunning outdoor scenery. Riding through rural landscapes offers a once-in-a-lifetime way to experience Ireland’s natural beauty.

Your Safety and Comfort Are Priority

We understand the importance of ensuring your safety and comfort while enjoying your horseback riding adventure. Rest assured, you’ll be in capable hands with our experienced team.

Hannah, a professional showjumper, provides expert guidance on horsemanship. Hazel, with 35 years of experience as a nurse, is always on hand to ensure your well-being. Amy, who has a disability herself, is particularly attentive to guests' unique needs. Our gentle and kind horses are accustomed to riders of all levels, and we’ll ensure you feel safe, confident, and supported throughout your ride, whether you're a first-time rider or experienced.

Your Experience Location..

Your experience may be on-site at the stables, where you can explore the countryside on a scenic trail, taking in views of Binevenagh Mountain and possibly spotting sheep or horses grazing. If you're feeling competitive, try your hand at some horseback games—great "craic" (fun)! Alternatively, you might ride along the famous Downhill Beach, home to Mussenden Temple, or explore an exclusive country estate with lesser-known tracks alongside your new best friend. For a truly unforgettable experience, you can also choose one of Ireland's best elopement spots —whether it's a castle or stunning coastline—such as Dunluce Castle, Ballintoy Harbour, Dunseverick Castle, the Dark Hedges, or the Giant's Causeway. Whatever you choose, we’ll make sure your ride is an experience you’ll never forget.
