ManeggioBookings and horseback rides
These terms govern booking enquiries, payments and participation in activities offered by the Giancarlo Cabras Riding Centre.
Last updated: 29 July 2026The activities are organised by Cavalieri di Domus De Maria, operator of the Giancarlo Cabras Riding Centre.
The cavalcareachia.it website is for information purposes and is not an online shop: it does not contain a shopping cart, checkout process or direct payment facility. The contact buttons open the phone function or the standard WhatsApp application. Any PayPal link is sent separately only after contact with the customer.
A request sent by phone, WhatsApp or email does not automatically constitute a confirmed booking. The booking becomes effective when the operator informs the customer of availability and confirms at least the type of activity, date or period, time, number of participants and price.
The customer must check the confirmation details and promptly report any errors. Communications exchanged through WhatsApp, email or another agreed method may be used to document the booking terms.
Descriptions, durations and prices published on the website are general references and may be updated. Before confirmation, the customer is informed of the service actually available and its price. Additional services or special requests are charged only if agreed.
The route, time and duration may be adjusted for safety reasons, weather conditions, trail conditions, horse availability and welfare, experience level or group composition, while preserving the essential characteristics of the agreed activity as far as possible.
Unless otherwise agreed at the time of booking, payment may be made:
The website does not collect card data. Any electronic payments are handled by the relevant service provider under its terms and privacy policy.
Advance payment is not always required. For groups, special bookings or activities requiring advance organisation, the operator may request a deposit or partial or full payment in advance.
Before payment, the amount, due date and conditions applicable in the event of a change, cancellation or no-show are clearly communicated. Those conditions become binding only after the customer has received and accepted them.
If, before payment, it was expressly stated and accepted that the deposit would be non-refundable if the customer cancels, the amount may be retained to the extent permitted by law. The right to a refund remains where cancellation is attributable to the operator, unless the customer accepts a new date.
The customer must communicate cancellation as soon as possible using one of the contact methods stated in the confirmation. Any financial conditions, including deadlines, amounts retained or the possibility of rescheduling, are those communicated and accepted before any payment.
In the absence of a specific agreed condition, the statutory rules apply. In the event of significant delay or failure to attend, the operator may be unable to provide the activity, especially where this would compromise safety or the arrangements for other participants.
The operator may postpone, change or cancel the activity where weather conditions, safety, horse health or welfare, unexpected unavailability or other circumstances prevent it from being carried out properly.
If the operator cancels the activity permanently, the customer may, where possible, choose a new date or receive a refund of amounts already paid for the activity not provided. Mandatory statutory rights remain unaffected.
For the safety of people and animals, each participant must:
The operator may refuse or stop participation where it considers that safe conditions are not present, the information provided is incomplete or a participant does not follow instructions. The insurance provided for the activity is included in the price as stated on the website; the terms, limits and exclusions of cover remain those of the relevant policy.
Horse riding and outdoor activities involve inherent risks that cannot be eliminated completely. Participants must contribute to their own safety by following the instructions, requirements and prohibitions communicated to them.
Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability that cannot be excluded under Italian law. Participants are liable, to the extent provided by law, for damage caused intentionally, by seriously reckless conduct or by failure to follow instructions.
Where the booking concerns a leisure activity scheduled for a specific date or period, the 14-day right of withdrawal provided for certain distance contracts may not apply under Article 59(1)(n) of the Italian Consumer Code (Legislative Decree 206/2005). The cancellation conditions communicated before confirmation and all mandatory consumer rights remain applicable.
Reference: Article 59 of the Italian Consumer Code.
Reports or complaints may be sent to info@cavalcareachia.it or by calling +39 348 704 4447. To allow a prompt review, the customer should provide their name, the date of the activity and a description of the issue.
These terms are governed by Italian law. For customers acting as consumers, jurisdiction remains with the court provided for by mandatory consumer protection rules. Before starting a dispute, the parties undertake to seek an amicable solution, without limiting the right to apply to the competent authorities.
These terms may be updated to reflect changes to the services or the law. Each booking is governed by the version communicated or available at the time of confirmation, together with any special conditions expressly accepted by the customer.
