23.01.2022 #FlashbackFriday to Christmas a couple of years ago. Calvin waiting patiently for the start of the pageant. Unfortunately our local pageant isn’t running this year, so will have to get our Christmas festivities with our light tours!!!

23.01.2022 Today, in the gale force winds, Angus and Henry went on their first wine tour. Words cannot describe how proud I am of these kids! Many experienced horses would not have coped with the weather conditions we went out in today. They scrub up really nicely with a bit of a bath

Even the mozzies were keen to join us for a ride! #clydesdalesofinstagram #langhornecreek #lovelanghornecreek #lakebreezewines #fleurieupeninsula #langhornecreekwineregion #southaustralia #carriageofoccasion #sunset

10.01.2022 I totally forgot to do a November special earlier this month, so to make up for it, i am offering one you can't resist! Buy a Gift voucher for a 'strathalbyn tour' for up to 4 people for only $250. Our 'Strathalbyn tour' takes our passengers for a leisurely jaunt around the beautiful town of Strathalbyn, where we can share our knowledge of the history of the town, or just soak up the ambience of horse drawn carriage travel. A single horse pulling either our lovely victoria ...carriage, or luxurious brougham, our passengers will feel like royalty as they wave at the passers by. Low steps for easy access, this is even suitable for elderly parents (hint hint). Gift vouchers can be posted or emailed, and are personalised with the recipients names. Due to the nature of the current climate, they are issued with a longer expiry, meaning you have until December 2022 to use them. Contact us to organise your gift voucher.

08.01.2022 Wine touring today, in this brilliant spring weather (finally) with a large group of 7 lovely ladies. Head over to our website for more information about our wine tours, they really are a great way to enjoy the langhorne creek wine region!

08.01.2022 I actually never realised how much of an art it is to get a nice selfie Anyway, the clydies debut wine tour is coming up, so today we visited the cellar door with the scariest driveway, just on foot, without a carriage, so they could check it out..... All they were worried about was the grass, and that they wanted to eat it

08.01.2022 Our beautiful boys having a scratch and rub after being wonderful for their first official’no frills’ ride. A really pleasant drive with some lovely passengers! Days like this I love my job.

07.01.2022 As you have no doubt heard, the recent Covid outbreak has meant restrictions have been re-introduced to South Australia. While it doesn't affect the services we offer directly, in the interest of doing the right thing by our community, if you have a booking with us and have paid a deposit, we will gladly refund or reschedule as required. We will be still operating- following all of the Covid precautions. We are still offering gift vouchers for that unique Christmas present, and we will supply them with an extra long expiry date, just to make sure there is plenty of time to use them.

06.01.2022 Perfect weather for a wine tour!! Nibbles and tabby get a turn today.
