Trot Cafe Khaoyai

Trot Cafe Khaoyai is a European country-style lifestyle café and leisure farm attraction. It works as a destination café, leisure spot and photography hub, with horse paddocks. Horses are a featured attraction rather than the sole activity, alongside vintage electric mini-car rentals, cycling paths, dining and photo opportunities.

Staff lead short leisure rides of about 20 minutes along the resort paths, suitable for beginners, children and adults. Guests can also feed and meet horses and miniature ponies up close. The horses are miniature horses, ponies and standard riding horses. There is no competitive riding academy, and no structured dressage, show jumping or polo lessons, veterinary, farrier, horse sales or tack shop services.

The venue has uncovered outdoor sand corrals and paddocks, plus scenic grass paths through the resort grounds. The café serves specialty coffee, non-coffee drinks, pastries, light snacks and savoury meals, both outdoors and indoors. Parking is spacious, with a golf-cart shuttle to the café entrance. Lodging is available within the resort. Dogs on a leash are welcome on the outdoor lawns and open-air seating.
