Hope you're well! TRC has a new venue in Tarifa, Spain, see www.theridingcompany.com - they are running a tiny press trip but I think places are full. There will def be some Austrian ones of interest later this year so I will keep you posted!
They also have a venue called the Reiters Resort (called 'Yoga, Spur and Spa at the Supreme' online) which is a five star spa with a stud and riding centre, on Lippizaners. There's indoor tuition as well as hacks and sporting activities - but it won't be warm!! It is reasonably priced however, from memory around £120 per person per night (inc spa use, food, accomodation etc) so a weekend break is pretty well priced. (Kat does 4 night riding breaks from £640).
I am not really up to date with what else is out there at the moment - but somewhere like Spain or the Canaries (I am sure you can ride in Tenerife - maybe with Ride World Wide/In the Saddle?) would be lovely and warm.
Another nice place is http://www.ranchoferrer.com, in Andalucia.

Have fun! Hope foxy filly going OK.
Kathy
