What people say
“We were so privileged to have the horse-drawn carriage for Dad's send-off. The turnout was immaculate, the horses stunning and their professionalism was second to none.”
“From the horses looking absolutely stunning alongside a beautiful carriage, meeting every request without blinking an eyelid, the fantastic communication at every step of the process, we and all of our guests were just blown away.”

The horses
Meet our horses
Our horses are Gelderlander/KWPN Dutch warmblood and Hungarian Lippizaner warmblood geldings. Each one is a different character and an individual member of our team. We keep them turned out as much as possible, with lots of time to play, roll, graze and just to be horses. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to see what we all get up to.
