THE HERD
In a corner of Zahora, amongst pines, rosemary and the Atlantic air, lives a family of fourteen horses.
Fourteen personalities. Fourteen ways of feeling, of relating to others and of being in the world.
MEET THE HORSES
Each one is unique. No two are alike.
Ramón
Sociable, curious, and free-spirited. He gets along with everyone and adores people, although he always prefers to choose his own path.
→
Cleo
Tall, gorgeous, and with the soul of a supermodel. She always comes over to say hello and can follow you anywhere, but she doesn't just go with anyone: she chooses.
→
Thor
Sweet like his cream colour and strong as a little bull. Always alert to anything unexpected. He loves moving forward, trotting and enjoying the journey.
→
Delicada
Elegant, discreet and intelligent. She has a look that seems to understand much more than you say.

Sultan
The youngest of the herd, at just four years old. Curious, gorgeous and full of energy. He is still learning and looks at the world with an eagerness to discover everything.
→
Mascota
One of the wisest of the herd. Noble, humble and patient. One of those horses that inspires confidence from the very first moment, perfect for children and beginners.

NARANJITO
Noble, calm and very strong. A safe and serene companion, perfect for adults who are starting to ride.

A unique mare, attentive and willing, but with a character of her own. Epona knows how to accompany you while still making her presence felt. She has personality, and plenty of it.
→
Elodi
The herd's 4x4. Brave, determined, and with unstoppable energy. She is the kind who gets going without thinking twice, perfect for experienced riders.
→
Payassa
Her name comes from the mask that once traced her face. Today it remains as a reminder of something: with horses, masks are unnecessary. Payassa invites you to present yourself just as you are.
→
Flot
The bravest of the herd. He has character, presence and likes to make his presence felt. Sometimes he plays at being intimidating, but behind that strong facade hides one of the most affectionate hearts in the group.

FAMILY
THEY SEEK EACH OTHER, THEY KEEP EACH OTHER COMPANY, THEY PLAY AND THEY LOOK AFTER EACH OTHER
Caring is a way of loving
Their life belongs to them
We don't want to adapt their lives to ours. We try to adapt ours to theirs.
THEY TRUST BECAUSE THEY KNOW THEY CAN HERE
They have discovered that this is a place to relax and live life from a state of calm and fulfilment.
THEY COME FIRST
Their wellbeing is not a part of what we do. It is the place from which everything else is born.
RESPECT IS OUR LANGUAGE
Patience when they need it. Affection when they look for it. Space when they ask for it.
And they, without knowing it, teach us to...
OBSERVE
before acting.
RESPECT
the other person's pace.
TRUST
without controlling.
ACCEPT
without judging.
BE
present.
We arrived looking for horses, and ended up finding a bit of ourselves.
