My horse has just returned after 4 weeks boot camp at Astrid Boltons.  I am really please with the work that has been achieved in a very short time. I cannot recommend Astrid and the team enough for what they have done for me and the horse and I hope they will continue to work with us in the future.  

On dropping the horse off the yard was immaculate and all the horses were relaxed and calm, upon returning to pick up my gelding he looked like he had been there all his life, he was so relaxed.  I have to say that this horse is not normally a horse that copes well with change and therefore it has taken me a  long time to trust him into someone elses care.  Keep up the good work and hopefully we will see you all soon  Liz Rae  ( Isle of Man)  

Thanks again I am having a fab time on him I am more relaxed now he is,  unfortunately for him he is back on the top of a hill riding in all weathers, it's wild at the moment but not long till summer I hope x
