Riding in Dartmoor provides something for everyone, regardless of skill level. The fact is, main business for the horse riding stables in the area depend on novices and absolute beginners to earn their livelihoods. It is not very often that a really expert rider turns up to ride - they usually have their own horses!

Fees do vary slightly from stable to stable but generally range around £8 per hr. and £24 for an all-day ride. The horses naturally vary in size as they have to carry extremely heavy people as well as tiny Lucinda! Even so, they are picked for their quietness and won't cause the true beginner any bother.

Some riding takes place along country lanes and roads. It is amazing what a different perspective is gained from the back of a horse. One is able to easily see over the top of hedges and because the pace is so much slower than the car you seem to go miles and miles! All rides are escorted.
