Experience the heart of rural Costa Rica on our tranquil working horse farm. Wake up to the sounds of nature, care for our 10 kind-hearted horses, and deepen your connection with them through Natural Horsemanship. It’s a place to slow down, breathe, and rediscover the joy of simple, authentic living.
Help
Hi! I’m looking for someone experienced in Natural Horsemanship to join me on my beautiful working horse farm in the Costa Rican countryside. We have 10 amazing horses, each with their own personality and story.
Your days will include:
Working with two horses a day to help them stay fit, balanced, and connected
Feeding and cleaning the barn (the horses are only in for meals, so it’s light work)
Helping guests and renters with the horses when they’d like to ride or learn
If you’re passionate about horses, nature, and meaningful hands-on work, this is a wonderful place to grow your skills and experience authentic Costa Rican farm life.
If interested, please share:
The style of horsemanship you follow
A few photos of you with horses
Languages spoken
English: Fluent
Spanish: Beginner
Accommodation
Enjoy a private cabin by the barn with a full kitchen, bathroom, and internet. Guests provide their own food, as all meal funds support the horses’ care.
What else ...
I taught natural horsemanship here for 20 years (until last November). My forever horses need to stay fit to be available for cottage and cabin guests to ride or work with.
