Own a pony day
Get the full Sonshine experience. Our holiday camps fill up fast, so book early!
Sonshine Ranch offers a very popular year-round holiday programme.
All our holiday camps have an element of Christian teaching. During a day camp, this is run for a short time after lunch and each evening during overnight camps. It is the foundation of Sonshine Ranch and gives people an insight into why we are so unique. All campers are asked to participate.
Due to our Ranch Camps filling up very quickly, we only allow campers to attend ONE overnight camp per holiday period.

Own A Pony Day
A unique programme run during the school holidays.
Own A Pony Days differ from our One Day Ranch Adventure Camp as we focus on learning aspects of owning a pony – from grooming to saddling, riding and caring. Own A Pony Day is for children aged 8 to 15 who one day dream of owning their own pony. Each camper is assigned a pony for the day to groom and saddle with help from our instructors and leaders.
Children ride twice – during morning and afternoon sessions – before ending the day with a trek around the farm. Lesson groups are based on their riding ability.
All holiday camps have an element of Christian teaching. This is run for a short time after lunch during our day camps.
There is a limit of 18 for the Own A Pony Day, so make sure you register today!
