| Hi,
We have just got back from a perfect weekend. Jo, Martin and Ceri could not have made us feel more welcome . They did everything they could to make sure that we had a lovely time - and we did. The riding is simply beautiful , and the views are breath-taking. Would highly recommend an escort and Ceri was really easy to get along with - as well as being a great gate opener.Worth remembering to take some 20ps for the showers - we got caught out on the first day. We will be back - and thank you for a simply wonderful break. |

| It was absolutely perfect. The landscape and the hut are unbelievable. Everything was really nice inside the hut,the bed, the fire place, the clours, the horses, etc etc..., and of course the breakfast in the wooden basket. We will definitely come back in the summer time for either the hut or camping there in the field. I can say that it was my our best and relaxing holiday there. Thanks Jo and Markus :-) |

| Well what can we say!!! We had an amazng time, our trips to your stables are becoming the thing of legend in our area and alot of enquries we have from new customers are keen to know when the next trip s going to be!. Trailored to the lanes near Oxwich bay and had a wonderful beach ride whle some of the others went to Rhossili, second day Port Eynon was a lovely easy hack from the campsite.
Really words cannot fully describe the AMAZING breakfast put on by Jo, for the gutzy amongst us I dont mide saying it s the breakfast that is as much of the attraction as the riding.
Not to be outdone, Martin and his amazing battery charger!!! for all our flat batteries and generally beng stand in emergency \'Dad\'.
Brace yourself we are plannng 1 if not 2 more trips before year end. xx |

| We had a lovely stay in the shepherds hut! It was a cold night
outside but the log fire made the hut really warm and cosy.
The breakfast was great and we felt very welcome. It\'d be
lovely to come back again in the summer! |

| We (a group of 7 friends) brought our horses to Pilton Moor Stables in September 2009. We had a wonderful time and could not fault anything! It\'s defo worth getting Ceri to show you they way to the Beach if you are a first timer and if you camp, like we did Jo and Suzi make a killer breakfast!! Thanks all, we will be back! :-) |

| We stayed in the Shepherd\'s hut for 2 nights over the summer. We were generally very lucky with the weather although even when there was an occasional downpour it was very cosy and warm inside. The interior is really well thought out, the views and surrounding countryside is stunning and you get a lovely hamper of breakfast goodies and a rechargeable lantern delivered to your door each morning. We will definately be back! |

| Absolutely fab! The weather was foul when we went on our walks, but the warming log fire and cosy cottage more than made up for it! Beautiful location. We can\'t wait to go back |

| I could rave about the stunning views, carpets of heather and foaming waves on the beach, or of safe off road riding and gulps of pure sea air. I could also compliment the facitilties -Clover\'s lush green paddock and an unfloodable menage. The real memorable part of this holiday however, were the people. Three cheers for Jo and Martin- the absolute salt of the earth. They were always ready with encouragement, humble advice and help(and a cup of tea!) And Ceri and Mouse - what a pair! We tucked in behind Mouse\'s bum and off we went. Calm, careful, kind, patient and honest - both horse and rider.
We towed my fiesty mare for 5 hours for the first time to get there. We were nervous and it took considerable courage for us to make the effort, but we were all so glad we did. Clover took it all in her stride and behaved herself. I would encourage anyone to do the same. The rest of my family cycled, surfed and relaxed when I was riding so it was an excellent family holiday, despite the rain.
Thank you for giving me confidence and making me feel good about myself and my horse. I wish I could bottle the experience and bring it home. |

| We stayed in the Shepherd\'s hut for two nights. It was absolutely fabulous. The hut itself is so well thought about with lovely decor and much attention given to all the finer details. We had a lovely breakfast each morning at 8am on the dot and nothing was too much for our hosts. This experience was wonderful and we would reccomend it to anybody who is looking for a quiet and peacful get away. We will be back!!

| We brought my daughter\'s pony for B&B and rented the shepherds hut for a week in mid August this year and we couldn\'t have had a better holiday. We loved the accommodation and its location was idyllic. The breakfast provided by Jo and Martin in a hamper outside our door was like opening a Christmas stocking each morning. It was great to light the woodburner just to be able to dry off when the weather was wet but I imagine it would be very cosy in colder parts of the year. Jo, Martin & Ceri really put themselves out to make our stay enjoyable. I would recommend the stables and yard which has fantastic facilities and the shepherds hut, not only for its location on Gower but also because it made a holiday with a difference. Would love to come back again. Thank you. |

| We have only just come to ground from being on such a high from our short break with you! We all had a fantastic time - great riding, top information from yourselves, everyone being so helpful. We have visited the Gower often without the horses and were always envious of riders we saw - we couldn\'t believe that we were actually there - riding on the beach! It was a dream fufilled and one we hope to make an annual event.
Our stay at Pilton Moor was fabulous, without hassle or concern. As with the majority of horse owners our main concerns are for our horses - but I can recommend your stables 100%. The paddocks spotless from manure, beautifully post & railed fenced, a good size and shape on level pasture with a good covering of grass. We loved the fact we could stay in our trailers next to the field to keep an eye on them! It was like pony club camp all over again. With better facilities and friendlier people! We were particularly grateful of the powerful hot shower loosening all our tight muscles, the kind offer of a electric kettle for a cuppa and most of all Martin who was hassled for hammers, tape, air for the tyres - thank you!
Our only regret is that we couldn\'t stay longer.
Many thanks - we hope it wont be long until we see you again.

| Apparently we are the first carriage drivers Jo & Martin have had to stay. Ideal safe stabling with rubber flooring; secure yard for horsebox. Driving routes start & finish on local roads (which suited us) but following a few phone calls from our hosts, keys for locked gates were made available for a wonderful drive on National Trust land to Worms Head and with further help from Jo & Martin, a bridleway track from Llanddewi to Rhossilli Down. Many horse-friendly pubs in the area, all highlighted by our hosts, who made us most welcomed and went out of their way to help us. |

| This couldn\'t be more perfect - good access by road with a trailer/lorry and then easy parking when you arrive; excellent facilities in the tack room and kitchen; safe and tidy turn-out paddocks very close by; sheltered grooming and tack-up shed; fabulous stables if you need them; and best of all some of the most incredible riding you\'ll ever experience right on the doorstep! Jo, Martin and Ceri were so helpful and informative - I managed to forget my bridle and Jo immediately saved the day by loaning me one; what an angel! I would thoroughly recommend starting off with an escort from Ceri who pointed out memorable landmarks and gave clear directions to lots of great rides, and was excellent company too. Thoroughly recommended - Thank you! |

| this was my best ever holiday so far thanks to pilton moor stables, i recommend it to anyone who is looking for a fun exiting and amazing experience. this has been the best holiday in my whole life and we are planning to go back next year, and i still cant wait despite only just getting back today. thank you to everyone at pilton moor stables for making my stay really fun! the beaches around are really amazing and great for flat out gallops that go on for ever and the hack to the beach is also brilliant and really fun and give an amazing experience. i also think that the ride to the beach and then back to the pub for a drink was a great ride. the views from over the moor/really big hill is great as it looks over the beach. i really do recommend pilton moor stables to anyone who owns a horse! see you next year! xxx |

| We held our adults’ riding weekend at Pilton Moor and had a fantastic few days. The horses’ accommodation was far better than ours with a choice of large stables or post and rail paddocks with good grass while we slept in the trailers! We did however have a spacious barn to shelter from the rain and hold our barbecue and a lovely clean shower that was very welcome after a long day in the saddle. It’s ideal for riding clubs or large parties as there was plenty of room on the yard to park our 12 trailers and get our 16 horses ready. It goes without saying that the riding was incredible and the views spectacular, some of the best riding I’ve experienced. Jo and Martin were always incredibly friendly and helpful, going well beyond the call of duty with the kettle on for when we got back from our 5 hour ride and a lift to the local pub for us. Thanks also to Ceri for being such a knowledgeable and informative guide – we would have been literally lost without you! |
