Bus Tours

This two-hour tour package is for Bus Tours with a minimum of 20 guests. If your numbers are different please contact us to see if we can book you in by providing a quotation for you.

Refreshments can be arranged close by at Bulahdelah town centre.

When your group arrives we begin with a short introduction to Clydesdales and how they were bred to help build Australia.

You’ll meet our rescue donkey “Murphy”.  He’s a favorite with everyone because he loves to stand next to you, so you can give his ears a nice rub.

We will give you a demonstration in the round yard of how we train our horses, so they are safe no matter what we ask them to do.

We use them on the farm for pulling timber as well as ploughing and moving other large objects. The Clydesdale helped build Australia way back in the old days and many of our visitors have stories of their own to tell us.

Recently a 97-year-old lady celebrated her birthday visiting us and she proudly told us her family used to own a Clydesdale when she was a little girl. Her father used to take her and her brother to school on the Clydesdale, then her father would ride home and put the plough on for the days ploughing. Then later in the day, he went back to pick her up from school. On Sundays, they would hitch up their buggy and their horse would take the family to church.

We all enjoyed a special day with her and her family.

When we have demonstrated the famous “Join Up” in the round yard, we show you how we do “Long Reining”. This is where we use long leather lines and stand behind the horse and steer it through our mini obstacle course. It’s great fun and the horses learn voice commands in order to help with their training.

We have been delivering this experience for many years and all the money raised goes towards the huge feed bills of keeping these magnificent Clydesdales fit and healthy. Feed, Vets, Farriers all make up a team of professionals that we pay throughout the year and we are extremely grateful for your booking.

Perfect for bus tour groups, this package gives you flexible times and personalised arrangements. Plenty of room to park your coaches close to the entrance and little walking distance to where the action will be. Undercover seating for up to 40 guests.

For further details you can call us on 0434 523 344 or email though the contact page.

We look forward to being of service.
