Monte Velho Equo Resort

A top quality place to spend either alone or with someone, to learn how to ride, or even for advanced level riders. The horses are very well behaved and 100% well taken care of. The installations are of very good quality and the rooms are fantastic. The food was also really very nice and the people super friendly. I can't say anything negative. I recommend it 100%.

Heaven on earth for horse people. Staff is incredible, trainers are great. Horses are magical. Would recommend but I prefer you won’t go so I have available rooms 😉

This location is a total game changer for someone who wants to develop their dressage skills, and particularly for those who are not lucky enough to have such valuable riding feedback at home. Accommodation, food, location, views, facilities and training opportunities are absolutely great. Horses live a life to the highest standard possible with generous turnout, limited lessons per day and great care, and this reflects in their character and “rideability”. This is however no place for beginners, and while some people in the comments here complained they couldn’t get past walk, trot, canter that is only due limited rider ability, and need to first perfect the basics. Clearly running such a property has its challenges, particularly in planning and organizing all activities in the face of change. Staff are doing their best, however the schedule on the stables is tight.
