Spanish term or phrase: Club Ecuestre

Equestrian Club?
Saddle Club?
Horseback-riding club?

Es uno de los cuatro clubes (los otros son: de playa, de golf y el spa) que se encuentran dentro de una ciudad-resort de playa.

Éste es el texto relacionado con este club:
======================================================
Club Ecuestre

Rodeado por 133 terrenos desde 600 metros cuadrados en franca convivencia con la naturaleza.

• Casa Club, amplia área de cocina, majestuoso restaurante, bar y un parque infantil.

• Pista de resonancia, de salto, de paso colombiano, paso peruano, de lazo y hierra.

• Corrales para ponies, bañaderos, senderos, torno para la ejercitación diaria de los animales, facilidades en cuanto a la atención y cuidado completo de sus equinos, con excelentes condiciones de higiene, salubridad y mantenimiento preventivo.

• Garita de seguridad que controla el acceso de personas y animales. Cada equino que ingresa al Club requiere presentar su certificado vigente y negativo de AIE, logrando así un ambiente libre de enfermedades contagiosas.

• Para su caballo, puede comprar o alquilar establos con todos los servicios incluidos.
======================================================

¿Cuál sería el mejor término en inglés para describir un "club ecuestre" que reúna todo lo anterior?

Mil gracias.

It will clearly be understood that "Riding Club" refers to horses and not anything else.

Notes to answerer

Asker: Thanks, Robert. I was wondering if just "riding club" would convey the meaning of all the above services included. Because it seems to me that not only can you rent a horse there and ride it, but you can also rent stables for your own horse, etc. Would "riding club" be enough? Thanks again!!! :)

Clare Macnamara: Defo!

Carlos Diaz de Leon: You are absolutely right. To address the asker's concern about the other services, I suggested adding "& Stables", i.e. "Riding Club & Stables"

52 mins

-> Thank you, Carlos.

neutral

Refugio: For an upscale resort, the word equestrian sounds more impressive, and an equestrian center could certainly provide stabling.

1 hr

-> I actually think that "Riding" would be more common for a resort and "Equestrian" for a facility where athletic competitions regularly take place.

Beta Cummins: Indeed.

horseback club

Explanation:
A mí me suena a "Horseback Club" a secas. Lo he visto muchas veces; ecuestre es un poco más elevado que simplemente "montar a caballo". Es un verdadero arte, en que "ambas bestias" (como bromea mi papá) llegan a formar una unidad.

Depending on the image you/the resort want to proyect, the other term I would suggest is 'Horse Riding Centre' - over 62,000 Google hits and you avoid using the word 'Club'
