Don’t let yourself go into standby mode!



It’s no mistery that we’re becoming sedentary, our lifestyles have already passed from boring into almost entirely mechanical, with the outcome being not only a psychological burden, but a physical one as well, and our health does not seem to come out well from all this.

But we all know the healing properties of nature and every once in a while we try to escape the monotony of our work lives to go out and grasp a bit of the beauty and peace of the countryside, to enjoy with our loved ones of fulfilling and rewarding moments.

Yet sometimes we forget how close nature is to us, and we neglect the great opportunities we have waiting for us. So at ActivityGifts.com we’ve decided to remind you of a few great deals that will give you and your loved ones the great moments you deserve!

We will be writing about outdoor activities over the next few weeks here in our blog, and to begin our journey through this summer, what better than horse riding? Horses have been our partners in time since we have memory, and the experience of riding one is fantastic. If you have tried it, you know it’s worth the while and surely would like to do it again. If you haven’t, here’s your chance to live one of the best experiences ever! So here we go:


Your children will simply love this relaxing and great fun riding adventure in scenic Kent. Not only are our instructors very experienced with youngsters, but our horses are gentle and friendly too. Don’t miss this chance to put a smile on your kids’ faces!


A truly amazing experience, riding along the scenic beach at Silecroft on a beautiful and powerful horse is definitely an activity gift to remember. A great adventure for expert riders or complete novices, this two-hour beach ride will help you unwind as the stresses and strains of everyday life disappear. With five miles of golden sands, our chosen beach is a scenic and inspirational location for your ride, and it’s fair to say you won’t want to get out of the saddle when you allocated time comes to an end. Simply magical!


Always dreamed about riding a horse, but never tried it? If yes, this experience is what you are looking for. This introduction course is a great choice for a first acquaintance with horses. So take your partner or friend with you and enjoy the moment with these majestic creatures.


With over five miles of golden sand, and picturesque views out to sea – the beach at Silecroft is the perfect location for a romantic horse ride followed by a picnic for two. The ideal gift for your partner on Valentine’s Day – or perhaps on their birthday or for Christmas – this riding experience is suitable for both novice and expert riders. With friendly, beautiful horses to ride – and an idyllic beachfront backdrop – this activity gift will live long in the memory. Don’t forget to pack your lunch for this three-hour adventure!


This horse riding experience for a whole family is a great way for you to spend some time all together and enjoy a really exciting experience. Whether you are total novices or advanced riders, this activity suits all abilities. So it's safe and funny even for the youngest ones. Helpful and dedicated instructors will be there for you through all the experience and friendly horses will make this unforgettable. Enjoy!
