Our Ranch Types

These are the real thing!  As the name implies, these are traditional working ranches which still drive cattle and lead the real cowboy life.  You may be expected to muck in with whatever the wranglers need to do – but rest assured, there’ll be plenty of time in the saddle and you’ll probably pick up other skills along the way.  Working ranches are usually more suitable for experienced riders but do offer a range of other recreational activities.


Guest Ranches specialise in welcoming guests onto a traditional ‘dude’ ranch.  They are usually smaller and more intimate than resort ranches, often hosted by the owners themselves.  You’ll find them friendly, inclusive and fun, with flexible programmes for riding to suit your experience.


These are usually larger ranches which have been specially developed with holidaymakers in mind.  They tend to offer more luxurious standards of accommodation, more facilities and a wider range of activities, which might include golf, swimming, tennis or a beauty spa.  These are great for family groups and will happily teach complete novices to ride.


These ranches offer a combination of both a guest ranch experience and a working ranch. Primarily they are working ranches but with more of a relaxed environment.
