Horse and carriage

Ruaridh has been carriage driving all his life and likes to give others the chance to experience what is his favourite hobby. Whether that is giving you a memory of a lifetime, topping off the most important day of your life, or teaching you how to take up the reins and get the same enjoyment that Ruairidh gets out of his Hobby.

Rides and hire

Carriage Rides start from £35.00 per hour and are normally done by Ruaridh so please check he is at home before booking a carriage ride.

For those of you who do not wish to ride a horse or pony but still want to see our fantastic Highland countryside with the aid of a horse you can hire our horse and carrriage for a ride.

Normally we can take a family of 4 or 5 in either a 4 wheel wagonette or marathon carriage. The marathon carriage is mainly use for tours of the estate and the wagonette for trips to the village.

Wedding hire

We often do local weddings for friends and family in Newtonmore and Kingussie but do not really go any further afield at the moment.

However if you would like us to quote for doing a Horse and Carriage at your wedding or other special occasion please ask.

We have a 4 wheeler style Highland Wagonette with optional Surry top depending on weather conditions and we also have a selection of two wheel gigs that can be pulled by a Highland Pony. A governess cart is probably the most appropriate for a wedding.

Driving lessons

Carriage Driving Experiences and even a basic introdutory lesson in how to take up the reins are sometimes available when Ruaridh is at home. His driving horse Kelpie, an Irish Draft x Warmblood Gelding is used for this, with a very safe modern 4 wheeler marathon carriage.
