Absolutely love this place! All the horses are so beautiful and kind-natured making them wonderful for trail rides. Camp area is also very pretty and gives off a calm atmosphere. The instructors at the campsite are also very easy going and kind people. They are also fantastic for catering from beginner to experienced riders. Will be my go to place my next camping holidays so I can see all the beautiful horses and scenery again! Highly recommend!
One of the best horse riding experiences I've had! Are you an adult who is envious of the horse handling and horsemanship classes broadly available to kids?? - well look no further because this will give you everything you need through an adult lens. I learnt so much from the lovely staff and the horses were wonderful - responsive and gentle. Oh and the valley itself is gorgeous to ride through. I will definitely be back!
I've just come off the back of the most amazing horse camp experience at Chapman Valley Horse Riding and I only wish that I had come out to experience the trail riding and mustering sooner than I have. Chapman's has been hands down the best trail riding experience that I've had in Australia, it is so worth the trip and realistically is not that far from either Sydney, Central Coast or Newcastle. They've got camping sites across the whole property so go and stay the night out there - it's worth it. The horse camp was everything and more and my inner child is so fulfilled now. I'm one step further on my horse knowledge journey and the entire Chapman Valley team contributed to that. They're all such beautiful genuine horse loving people. They match a gorgeous horse to your riding ability and depending on that there's lots of trotting and cantering available and of course the most amazing walking through beautiful trails across their 6000 acres. It's not like a boring walk trail ride nose to bum situation at all. I would definitely recommend the horse camps, mustering, trail riding no matter what you're ability is the Chapman Valley Horse Riding team is there to support. I'm excited to head out there again already.
Had the best time on our 3 day muster great group of people we rode with our riding guides Ana Sandra Peta were fantastic the Drovers lodge was great stay definitely coming back again
Had an amazing time in the 3 day muster!! Guides were brilliant, mustering cattle was so much fun. Food was delicious. Horses are so well cared for. Learnt heaps. Will definitely return for another! Can’t speak more highly of it. Best experience
Absolutely loved chapman valley horse riding! I have tried a fair few trail riding places across NSW and these guys are by far the best! Every worker was kind, fun and absolutely loved their jobs- we were never made to feel like we knew nothing! Property is absolutely gorgeous and very large and the horses are so loved and carefully picked for each rider. Will be coming back!
I've just returned home after a truly wonderful weekend at Chapman Valley. I joined the adult riding camp (up to 6 riders) and we were joined by 2 wonderful guides. The guides were so supportive and encouraging which I needed as a beginner. It exceeded my expectations, and I look forward to returning for another weekend soon.
I just come back from the 3 Day cattle muster and i cant begin to explain what an incredible experience it was, from the Drovers quarters we stayed in to the food provided was not only absolutely delicious but the amount of food we had and the variety was great!! Peta, Sandra and Ana our guides were just the best not only with their knowledge but were just beautiful people and made the experience just awesome! Thank you ladies for all that you did to make the experience what it was, cant wait to do it all again with you all. xx
