Equestrian holiday in Andalusia, riding P.R.E. stallions
Whether you are an advanced rider or whether you haven’t been in the saddle for quite a while, we can tailor the equestrian schedule to fit your needs.
On our well-schooled and even-tempered horses, you can re-discover your love of the riding sport safely in a calm environment.
Advanced riders who are looking to improve their skills and hoping for some fine-tuning, or experienced riders who would like to give classic dressage a try, or improve your skills, will be thrilled about the opportunities we offer.
In addition to practising your dressage skills in our large dressage arena, with individual instruction, you also have the option of discovering our fantastic hills, on horseback, on extended guided hacks.

Location
The Boutique Hotel Residencia Fundador is located in the south-east of Andalusia, amidst a landscape of rolling hills, remote from the huge hotel conglomerates and run-of-the-mill tourist areas.
The area still has its original spanish flair and there is plenty to discover. Locals are friendly and willingly lend a helping hand. A great place to get to know this country and its people
