Mimi · 28-09-2025

Wonderful experience

It was extremely interesting, a lot of different pre blended aromas which you can mix together. They give you adviceso for the best outcome. Different scenes like fruity, flowerish, fresh, exotic. On the end getting overwhelmed from distinct aromas, it was still possible to create your own perfect blend.

One Hour Horse Riding Experience for One - UK Wide
Jo1970 · 19-10-2025

3rd time lucky

After 2 attempts in the summer, cancelled due to poor weather conditions, it was 3rd time lucky. The staff were very friendly and helpful on all occasions, and apologetic when cancelled. The flight was smooth and interesting, going over the sea, over a castle and grounds etc. About 15 minutes into the flight, you take over the controls, under the guidance of the pilot.
