What Our Guests Say

Everything at Touchstone is top drawer. It is heartening and inspiring to see a group of people achieving such quiet excellence, neither arrogant nor boastful. Moreover, everyone is family at Touchstone, no small achievement in our disconnected world. You’ll be seeing me again.

It has been such a pleasure being here with all our old friends. My first ride in 29 years was great, great horse, and I can walk! We have enjoyed your hospitality so much. Harry made our stay extra special. Thanks so much for everything.

It was very interesting for us (parents), to see where our son has had a very good time. We saw how hard the work was and how very friendly you all were. Many many thanks for all you did for us and to let us take part in your family life. We would love to see you again here or in Germany.

So good to be here and to share the beauty of the land. Loved the mealtimes, and our visits – woven fences, outside oven – does connect us with the earth.
PS. You are all welcome to come share the beauty of the coast.
PPS. Thanks so much for your hospitality…and I think Harry is a very smart dog!!!

What our Students Say

Once again I’m sad to leave this utterly magical place full of wonderful people, horses and experiences. Were I to write out all my feelings, you would need a new guest book! Thank you again for making your home mine as well and becoming my second family. Good luck in the coming year. Sorry I didn’t bring rain. My love always.
