Donegal from the Saddle - Our Weeklong Trail Riding Holiday

Donegal from the saddle explores the most north-westerly part of our rugged island of Ireland taking you through an amazing variety of terrain, high into the mountains, gallop over isolated beaches and meander through regions where Irish is still the first language, The rider becomes eternally bonded to the magnificent beauty of this region, never to be forgotten. Combined with the best Grade A accommodation and food in the area, the most knowledgeable of guides and of course the finest of equine stock, this is an essential equestrian experience for everyone with a love of horses and the outdoors.

Situated on the shores of Sheephaven Bay, in the beautiful village of Dunfanaghy, County Donegal, Ireland, Arnold's Hotel is the base for the week. The hotel enjoys panoramic views of the Bay and the striking scenery of Horn Head with spectacular walks and many hidden attractions is home to a variety of seabirds that can be spotted off the cliffs. Just a short stroll from the hotel and the golden sands of Killyhoey Strand await you. Here is the place to unwind as you absorb the beauty of a landscape never to be forgotten. Our thirty en-suite bedrooms are tastefully furnished to a high standard. You will enjoy quality cuisine complimented by excellent wines in the relaxed ambience of the 'Tramore Restaurant'. Friendly efficient service, quality cuisine and warm hospitality are the hallmarks of the Arnold family owned and managed hotel.

Nothing has been forgotten to ensure that this is the best week of your horse riding life!
