Cattle drive 2007. This has been a life changing experience. Learning natural horsemanship has opened my eyes to a whole new world of horses and horse riding. The tuition Jillian gives you will change your views on the traditional way of treating and riding your horses. The treatment of both human and animals on Hickmans Run is excellent. You are treated to great facilities, meals and surroundings. It is the perfect opposite to a city life. It is relaxing and laid back and a great treatment for a stressful and overworked lifestyle. I have to say that this has been one of my best experiences in my life. Thanks Jillian, Steve and Simon for a fantastic week. Michael Camilleri

I highly recommend this experience to anyone who wants to get in touch with the real things in life. Jillian and her team made me feel very welcome and installed in me a confidence in my ability to ride I never dreamed of accomplishing. Over the whole 5 days I never went without anything. The food was 1st class, simple tasty and extremely filling. It has opened up my eyes to natural horsemanship even further and given me a huge sense of achievement & happiness both personally and with my horse. Friends and the team. Thanks Jillian for sharing your home and lifestyle with me I will never forget the time it is etched in my memory for ever. Michelle Moulden

Well, what an adventure. My friends and I attended the April 2007 cattle drive, some of us bought our own horses along. This morning we are sitting around the campfire on the last morning thinking about all that we have done. We have all left our lives behind, forgotten our every day worries and undertaken the adventure of a lifetime. It has been one of the most challenging experiences of my life but I can honestly say a priceless opportunity to unite with my horse in the way that I have never had the chance to do before. The most stirring surroundings that make you feel like you are living on your own secret planet, with spectacular food (I have never eaten so much in my life), wonderful company and led by people who have the utmost respect for their horses and the job they do around the station. Thankyou Jillian and all the team for a truly fantastic experience. Serena Middleton

Just wanted to say thanks a million for such a great time. It was such an amazing experience. Much more than I had ever dreamed of. Thanks again. Tara Ireland

An amazing experience for horse and rider, country that we have never covered before and Jillian's expert knowledge in natural horsemanship opens many new windows. Many thanks to Jillian, Steve, Simon and Sarah for a lovely holiday. Kim & horse Aundre

A great week of recreation, excellent horsemanship, fantastic scenery, good food and lots of exciting things to do. I must do it again some time. Grahm Sully

I have been meaning to write to you for a couple of weeks now but have been either too busy or just too damb lazy, however I knew I had to strangle the lazy me and get off my butt and write. I wanted to thank You Steve and Simon for giving me the opportunity to experience the week that I had. As I told you I did not have a hell of a lot of experience with horses but had always wanted to do more with them. The week I spent on your property provided many challenges to me and I enjoy a good challenge, so I hope that gives you an idea of how much I enjoyed myself. Being there allowed me to gain so much more confidence and trust in these magnificent animals. What I got to experience at your property has given me a desire to spend more time with horse and as a result I have acquired a job at a riding school in Sydney taking out trail rides on Sundays. I love being back out in the open paddocks riding horses. I wish to extend to you and your team a huge thanks for all that you have done for me. I hope to see you all again in the not too distant future. Brian Doyle
