    Description

    We are a Polo playing family based in Kwa Zulu Natal in South Africa. There is my husband GBL, myself Don's, Zoe 16, Lucy 14 & Jim 12. GBL runs a large construction company. I run a horse riding school & we all play polo & run a young horse program.
    We are looking for someone who can ride and teach riding to young children. You will be based in Winterton, just under the Drakensberg Mountains in KZN. There is so much to do on your days off. The area is beautiful & there are many amazing hikes & outdoor activities.

    Accomodation will be with the family in a small cottage. A vehicle will be supplied to run into the polo field & back to the farm. The job would be helping with riding lessons in the riding school with the scope to move over to the polo side. It would suit an experienced rider.
