Great Trethew Trekking operates as a family-run riding school and trekking centre set within thirty acres of private gardens and woodland in Cornwall. The centre runs a broad programme that includes riding lessons, woodland hacks, pony experience sessions, kids clubs, pony parties and home education groups. Equine-assisted therapy and alternative provision are also part of the offering, alongside events and horsebox hire for visitors wanting to take a horse or pony further afield.
The school welcomes riders of different ages and stages, including beginners and children. Group lessons run from thirty-five pounds for a thirty-minute session, with private thirty-minute lessons priced from forty pounds. Kids Club sessions last two hours and start at the same rate. Woodland hacks of thirty minutes begin at thirty-seven pounds, and the centre also arranges moorland and beach rides for those wanting to explore beyond the site. Vouchers are available for anyone looking for a gift option.
Facilities include a sand school for schooling and lessons, a full set of stables, and the surrounding thirty acres of private gardens and woodland that form the hacking routes. A campsite and on-site lodges offer accommodation for visitors, and a car park is provided for day guests. The site is accessible, and the centre is licensed by Cornwall Council, approved by ABRS+, registered with Ofsted and approved as an alternative provision provider.
Opening hours run from 09:00 to 19:00 on Mondays, and 09:00 to 18:00 on Tuesdays through Sundays, giving plenty of flexibility for after-school bookings, weekend visits and holiday camps. The combination of accredited tuition, therapy services and a substantial outdoor setting makes the centre a practical choice for families, school groups and individuals across Cornwall seeking riding lessons or guided hacks.
