Trans Wales Trails runs family-run trail riding holidays from Blaenau Bach Farm in Talgarth, Powys, in the heart of the Brecon Beacons. Riders take to the hills on home-bred Welsh Section D cobs, following routes through the surrounding countryside on hacking, trekking and trail riding outings of varying length.
The school offers a broad programme of rides to suit different schedules. Day rides include pub rides and picnic rides, with lunch included on the combined pub and picnic day, while longer options cover midweek breaks, weekend breaks and multi-day trail riding holidays. Gift vouchers are available for those booking on behalf of someone else. The starting price is GBP 145 per person for the day pub and picnic ride, inclusive of lunch.
Facilities at the farm are geared to guests staying over. There is a dining room and a lounge for shared use, alongside guest accommodation so visitors can relax between days in the saddle. A car park is provided on site. Riders should note that the focus here is trail riding and hacking through open country, and the school does not advertise arena-based lessons.
The business holds a Visit Wales 4 star rating. It is based at Blaenau Bach Farm in Talgarth, Powys, postcode LD3 0EG, and bookings can be made by contacting the school directly. Trans Wales Trails suits riders looking for a rural riding holiday with multi-day options and the chance to ride Welsh cobs on Brecon Beacons terrain.
