Countryside Stables at Balik Pulau, Penang

We all had a great afternoon at the Countryside Stables early this month.   It was only recently I found out about this place and the girls got all excited when we told them we'll go that weekend.  

They have about 30 horses of different breeds and types, with a couple of deers and several donkeys also in house.  The place opens daily from 3pm - 7:30pm only.  The owners sell drinks and ice cream to cool down from the heat.

Entrance fees are RM5 for adults and RM3 for children below 12 years old.  
Horse ride for children costs RM20 and RM25 for adults.

Hello deer!
One can buy a small bucket of hay for feeding the horses and deers, RM2 a piece.
Sarah meets the cute ponies.




The stable is pretty clean and well organized.  The walkways are shaded and there's a visitor rest area further down, the green roof at the left end.
A few ponies roam freely for visitors to pet and feed.
Safety first! Check out the rows of kiddie and adult size helmets.
Sarah and Reena were provided with disposable shower caps before putting on their helmets. 
Sarah got a small pony, with a friendly escort.
Reena was given a tween horse!
Enjoying their horse ride. 
Truly a countryside stable :) 
Hello wave.
She can't get enough of this pony.
Ice cream time for everyone!
Interesting wall decors, mostly hooves!
One last goodbye before we left.
