Argyll Trail Riding retired from running week long trail rides in 2010 but are still offering a trail riding service for riders with their own horses.  Part of the Horse Welcome scheme, Brenfield is the perfect base to enjoy a fun filled holiday, riding on open hills, forest trails and swimming in the sea with a choice of on site self catering accommodation in a farm cottage or bunkhouse.  Qualified instruction and clay pigeon shooting is available by arrangement with regular BHS Trek training and competitions taking place.  Brenfield is able to tailor your holiday and provide a guided service to visit historic sites, standing stones, old castles and  routes off the beaten track, through their years of experience of the area. 

Livery is available at Brenfield throughout the year and well behaved dogs are welcome by arrangement.   Please contact us to discuss your requirements and for more details.
