The Experience

We are looking for an helping hand with knowledge of horses. Your tasks will be general daily horse care (feeding, grooming, mucking out, etc.), stable maintenance (from sweeping stalls to building pastures) and help with our breeding and riding-school. We are based in a very rural area...which is great for hacking! Depending on your skills you'll be allowed to ride in your free time. The majority of meals are eaten in our family's restaurant.

My time with Dani was incredible. From the very first moment, they welcomed me with open arms. Every day was different, some days involved longer work, while on others we had time to go riding. The food was delicious and abundant. It's a beautiful place where you eat well, learn a lot, and connect with her horses. Dani showed me the local landscapes, trails, and small villages nearby, which made the experience even more special. I'm truly grateful to have gotten the opportunity to learn from her and everyone I shared time with.

My stay with Danni in little Bellersdorf was fantastic…I'm already planning my next trip back! Everybody always made me feel so welcomed both at the house and at the stables. The food was phenomenal at Danni's family's restaurant and ideal if you are looking for traditional German Cuisine. The work varied every day with some being longer hours than others but we always had fun and we were also offered a number of opportunities to ride…Danni is an incredibly talented rider! We also went out on a few day trips and meals which were really nice. I have truly made a friend for life with Danni x

I had an amazing time with Daniela in the farm. She welcomed me with open arms and she was so much fun to be around with. She teached me so much about horses and Germany. The landscapes were unreal and I got to learn so much about the history of them. I got to ride some amazing and very skilled horses and spend time with them. The food was delicious and the work was easy. I'd love to go back again!
