Bring your horse on holiday to Dartmoor National Park
Explore the beauty of Dartmoor with your own horse, after all they deserve a holiday too once in a while. Many horses love to explore new and exciting bridle paths, quiet country lanes, open moorland, gorgeous valleys and woodland, its a paradise for riders too.
Holiday livery is on a do-it-yourself grass livery basis, charged at £10 per horse per night. Holiday liveries will be kept separate from our horses at all times.
We can recommend the best rides throughout your stay with us and even keep an eye on your horse whilst you enjoy the rest of what Dartmoor has to offer. Many of our local pubs are also horse-friendly - The Rugglestone Inn, The Forest Inn and The Warren House Inn all have specific tying up areas outside the pub ready for your horse to rest during the day ride.
There are also many drag hunts within a short ride away throughout the hunting season, and we can recommend a local hireling yard.
If you would like to bring your horse on holiday we request that the horse’s tetanus and flu vaccinations are up to date and the horse is fully insured.
Note: we do not accept stallions on livery.
