Activities for the holidays

I have recently had Miranda`s two teenage boys to stay from Tulsa, Oklahoma and looked for interesting activities they might try.

Horseriding - Friends in Oswestry Tourism recommended Springhill Farm in Glyn Ceiriog - B&B guests returned to go back for more riding there.   They are particularly good with young people   www.SpringhillFarm.co.uk   01691 718 406 

Also www.OswestryEquestrianCentre

In the end the boys preferred

White Water Rafting:  www.whitewateractive.co.uk   I liked the fact that Rhonda answered the phone every time (not press 1 for... press 2 for ...) wet suits and helmets were included in the price and the session lasted 2 1/2 hours.   Also, I could pay a bit more and get loads of pictures taken by a professional photographer, of our boys` raft as it careered down the rapids at Llangollen - rather than me taking a picture of them just out of sight from the bridge!

Hope this might be useful during the long hols.
