Myself and 2 friends just spent the most amazing weekend at Jesters Flat on the Rosa Brook Retreat. I can’t recommend this highly enough, 10 stars out of 5! The rides were simply amazing. They cater for all levels with plenty of trotting and cantering throughout the 2 days. And when you are not trotting you are walking through the most beautiful countryside, along rivers, through vineyards (with the owners approval of course). The rides were led by 4 extremely skilled and super friendly guides, ensuring everyone was well looked after and kept safe. My riding improved significantly over the 2 days. Glamping at Jesters Flat was beyond our expectations. The tents are gorgeous, beds super comfortable, and the meals & wine served throughout the weekend were first rate. Paul & Fiona went above and beyond to ensure that we all had the best weekend. They are the nicest people, probably why most of the guests were return visitors. We will definitely be back for another weekend retreat next year!

WOW is the best word to describe what an amazing weekend I just spent at Jesters Flat with my daughter in law, & friends from NSW & Victoria. My daughter in law & I visited Jesters last year for 2 days of riding & invited our friends from Eastern States this year. We loved it so much we have already booked for next year. We did 2 full days of riding staying at Jesters in their comfy Bell Tents. Their horses are beautiful & so well trained, the guides are outstanding & so supportive. From when you arrive late Friday until late Sunday afternoon an abundance of top class food & refreshments are supplied, (thanks Alex for your tasty meals). The owners Fiona & Paul are absolutely perfect hosts, so warm & welcoming so thank you both for just being you. Thanks also to this years guides, Emma, Yvonne, Michelle, Laura & Linda. Already looking forward to next September.

Jesters flat overall is 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ +. This is my second weekend down at Jesters and can not highly recommend them enough. The moment you walk in the gates you are treated like family. Fiona and Paul are very personable and want to get to know you as a person and genuinely care about your experience with them. Our tour guides on the latest weekend (Rosa Brook Retreat) was Emma, Laura, Michelle, Evon and Linda are very knowledgeable, very Safe and extremely kind and encouraging. The horses are safe, gentle, very well educated and really look after the rider. I can not highly recommend Jesters flat enough and counting down the days until my next visit.

By far the best horse riding establishment I've ever been to. The 2 women who guided us were extremely professional and friendly. The horses were so beautiful, well-behaved and healthy. The trail was gorgeous and we had the chance to have a little trot. Will definitely recommend and return!
