Horse Riding Holidays in Southern Spain
Together with a team of helpful, friendly staff and 30+ fabulous horses, we provide luxury horse riding holidays in Andalucía, Spain. We are Christine and Paul Hartfield from the UK.
In 2008 we moved to Cortijo Uribe with our two horses and two dogs and started renovation work. Whilst working on this project we seemed to attract rescue horses and dogs to the house. People also asked for riding lessons and we employed some locals to help. As more 4 legged animals arrived we set up the business as a foundation and began to re-home, dogs and re-educate horses.
We then decided to have guests to stay to help with the cost of this passion. Come and join us and share in the happiness this project has bought to our lives, whilst having an amazing horse riding holiday in Spain.

We are sorry to inform those of you who do not already know, Spain is now on lock down.
We will therefore not be allowing guests to arrive for the next 2 weeks.
All guests have been informed and we send a huge thank you to those of you who have postponed your holidays and left your funds with us as our horse still need feeding and our staff paying.
We also thank you for you wonderful messages of support.
We very much look forward to seeing you in happier times.
Hoping all of you stay safe and well.
Keep in touch.
Team Hacienda Horses.Difficult times. We will get through.x
Update on the booking situation with the Coronavirus.
On NEW bookings March until the end of May, we will not charge a deposit. The balance will then be due in full 10 days before the holiday date.
We have seen that Easy-jet and British Airways are also removing their charges for changing bookings.
We would point out that most of our activities are outdoors.
Our rooms are all private with en-suite facilities.
Guests can eat separately in their rooms should they wish to.
Last night on Spanish television it was said that 95% of the virus will die at temperatures of over 25 degrees. Spain should be in this temperature range in 2 weeks time, in fact yesterday it was 27 degrees at the Cortijo.
We fully understand the need for customer confidence, we also want to ensure the safety of our guests. We will be as flexible as we can to help.
Let hope that we all get through this dreadful situation safe and healthy. Our thoughts are with you all.
To all guests, we are open. We will stay open until the Spanish health authorities advise us otherwise.
If the situation changes and we close we will be delighted for guests to change their holiday for days later in the year.
We are at the present time operating hand cleaning on arrival and all guests are being given antiseptic wash for hands.
If we are organising transfers for you, the vehicle is cleaned inside on every journey and our driver will wear gloves to handle your luggage. You will be asked to sterilise your hands before entering the car.
We hope to keep all guests as safe as possible.
As returning guests know we are outside most of the time and rooms are private.
Should Spain be put into lockdown during your stay will be delighted for you to stay with us.
We also have lots of wine and toilet rolls.

A recent guest flew all the way from Australia to spend a week with us. Here is his review! It was great to have you here and we look forward to your next visit in April:
I will start with June, Pedro, Penny, Rosie, Christine, Paul, Andy, they were the best. They made my horse riding of seven days holiday “magnificent” All of them made me feel welcome and warm. Also, a place where I had stayed was fantastic too. The villa was situated outside of the bustling town Málaga. It was settled among olive plantation and mountains. The scenery was so tremendously beautiful. The villa facilities were in great condition. Spacious room, great food and drinks. Staffs were friendly and attentive. Everyone here was nice and professional. I can tell that they were passionate about their work, and willing to make your riding trip run consistently.
Penny was one of the best instructor to teach me, she was kind and great in her work. Also, June can arrange a trip to the El Caminito del Rey too. This place was beautiful and magnificent, one of the hi-light in this surrounded area. if you are staying here for a week or longer, you should check it out, and ask June in advance because the ticket to the El Caminito Del Rey tends to sold out quickly. Anyway, if you are a horse lover, no matter what level of riding you are, this place is the perfect answer for your horse riding during the holiday in Spain.More
