Stabling at Riscombe Farm

Bring your own horse for a holiday on Exmoor and enjoy some of the best riding in England (see location). We offer DIY livery available in 6 + 3 loose boxes, and there is a secure, heated, well-equipped tack room with hot & cold water. We are just (Spring 2009) finishing a major project in which we have re-roofed the stable block and redesigned the layout of the tack room, games room etc. Bedding and hay can be provided at cost, and grazing is normally available. Riscombe Farm is well placed to explore the countryside with long and short rides in all directions, to Dunkery Beacon, Tarr Steps, the Doone Valley, and along the Rivers Exe and Barle (see about Exmoor). Ride route maps can be provided.

See prices & availability for DIY livery charges. The stables are on two sides of the courtyard, opposite the self catering cottages, so you will always be close by!

The Brooke Charity The Brooke Charity: Please note that Leone collects unwanted tack for The Brooke hospital for animals charity, which helps working equines in the world's poorest communities. She cleans it up, does minor repairs if necessary and sells it at auctions and fairs, with 100% of the proceeds going to The Brooke. If you are coming to Riscombe Farm on holiday, then please bring any contributions with you. You can read all about the charity if you click on the logo. You can also see what the local Exmoor fundraising group in aid of The Brooke is up to at www.thebrooke-exmoor.co.uk
