After a Google search and a view phone calls these stables were recommended to us. (It's a shame they aren't mentioned on any of the Visit Scotland info pages.)
Our phone call was well received and we were booked for pony trek within a couple of hours of the phone call. We booked a 30-minute pony ride for two inexperienced riders. The girls were led out on a walk/ trot which they thoroughly enjoyed.
Thank you top Megan and Grace who led Bernie and Maddie. We will definitely be back.
The stables are located in the scenic Tentsmuir Forest.
I also thought the price was reasonable.

Amazing day at the stables today. Relaxed, easy, professional and fun. We had nine six and seven year olds out for a 30 min forest ride and they all loved it. We'll definitely be back!
