Saxtead Bottom Riding Stables, Suffolk, UK
Visited: July 2014
After a 20 minute assessment with the owner Hannah, who thoroughly checked that I could ride competently enough at walk, trot and canter I set off on the lovely Etty, a been-there-done-that riding school horse in her late teens with a placid nature but a real whizz when she gets the opportunity! We had superb weather for exploring the countryside which inspired Constable's famous landscape paintings, particularly the glorious sunshine which made the horizon shimmer as we cantered beside golden fields of crops.
