What an amazing set up. Bev is an English instructor with a large stables and an excellent staff. The teamwork is exceptional. I took several lessons and did some rides out. You would be hard pressed to find a better teacher. Bev tuned into my strengths and weaknesses and I made huge strides in both my understanding and my riding. I will definitely return here when I come back to the Algarve. Just a fantastic experience that I can thoroughly recommend.

I enjoyed the most fantastic ride through the beautiful woodland and along the stunning sea shore as described on the website. Daniel was the perfect companion and the lovely mare Carina looked after me as Bev had promised. The most memorable time which I hope to repeat in not to a distant future

I booked in with Bev for a couple of complete novice lessons just to see how I got on. Firstly, I was pleased to see and hear how the welfare of the horses was a top priority. They appear well cared for and looked after. Secondly, I am grateful to Bev for her time teaching me the very basics of horse riding. I enjoyed the two lessons, and will make sure I book well in advance before my next trip to the resort. Many thanks. Nick

I had an amazing time riding at Pinetrees. The horses are beautiful and so well looked after. Beverley heads the team and is professional and really knowledgeable - she gave me some great tips - and all the staff are friendly and helpful. I went for a ride through the pine forest and even tried a few jumps, it was great fun. Would highly recommend.

Just got back from two weeks in Vale do Lobo and this was the highlight of the holiday. My son (14) and myself originally booked the ‘Pinetrees Experience’ which is 30 minutes lesson followed by 30 minutes nature walk and based on this we then booked a package of lessons for the rest of the holiday. Bev is a fantastic teacher and tailored our lessons and rides out to our individual needs. She gave us some great tips to improve our riding and made the lessons fun and informative. The horses are extremely well cared for and when it was too hot for them to go out, the lesson was rearranged. By the end of the holiday we were part of the furniture and we will already miss Bev, the lovely staff and of course, Tarzan the dog! We will definitely be back.

The horses at Pinetrees are obviously loved & well cared, extremely important. They are also well-schooled and responsive to riders. We are a mother (rode regularly as a child but not since) and daughter (recently begun weekly lessons). Bev took care of both our needs and gave us a useful & enjoyable lesson. We did the Pinetrees Experience - lesson & ride out, 60 mins total. There were assistants with lead ropes when necessary & Bev gave us useful tips to mount & improve our seat. The ride out was enjoyable with herbs and local flora pointed out to us. It wasn’t quite as rural as I expected hence the 4 stars. We will go again if we can - thank you Bev, Carina, Count and the team!

I had a great ride at Pinecliffs with will ride there again in the future. Bev gave a good briefing before we saddled up and covered some important safety notes. All the horses in the yard were well cared and I was super happy with the horse they chose for me and my riding experience.
