    I'm not sure whether flights are included with this, there seems to be no mention of them

    If you have ever fancied the idea of riding beautiful Lusitano horses in Portugal, then this is your chance. Your Horse has joined with Herdade do Gizo to offer a family riding holiday, worth more than £2,500, at their ranch in the Alentejo region of Portugal. The prize is for a family of four to enjoy three nights stay in a luxury villa on the range, at Herdade do Gizo. Ten runners-up will be offered a 15% discount off the cost of a holiday at the ranch. The Alentejo region of Portugal is a picturesque, rural, peaceful haven and Herdade do Gizo is a private resort of 52 villas. More than 16 horses live on the ranch – some of them live as a wild herd out in the fields. They are either full Lusitanos or crossed with Arabian or Thoroughbreds. They are good-mannered, well-behaved and a pleasure to ride.

    I think there is plenty to do in that resort if you don't ride. I googled "Herdade go Gizo" last night and the place looks amazing.

    Keep entering the comps that are just holidays? Seems a bit unfair to those who do ride otherwise...

    Thanks to everyone who posts freebies and comps! :j
