Horsefarm MELANOURI - Riding in Crete
We are a German-Greek family and are running our small equestrian farm since 1998. Starting with five horses,
meanwhile their number increased on ten. In addition there are goats, chicken, rabbits, cats and dogs on our farm.
The horses belong to different races, mainly however of the tough, small
"Messara Horses". This age-old Cretan horse race is characterised by its tolt
skills and its generally very soft courses in all paces!
On our equestrian farm, situated on a hill at the edge of Pitsidia, a small village about four
kilometres northeast of Matala with its famous caves, you can enjoy the fantastic view over the
Ida mountains.
From our stables it's only a 30 minute walk by the fields and dunes up to the
famous Komo Beach, one of the most beautiful (sandy) beaches of Crete.
Directly on our farm we offer a double room and an apartment with 2 shower/WC and kitchen. Leave yourselves to
the charms of this special atmosphere and the beautiful panorama!
