Lake District views are spectacular from any perspective, but they’re extra special from atop a horse. You can take part in all kinds of horse-riding here, from a guided walk atop a Lakeland pack pony on a horse farm to tapping into your inner Victorian with a solo hack along bridleways and beaches. The Lake District’s very own fell ponies are extremely popular with families and nervous novices, while there’s something thrilling about climbing onto the broad back of a Clydesdale or a Shire, rare breed heavy horses famed for their even temperament and light footedness. From riding lessons and tuition to full-on riding holidays and hands-on holiday experiences you’ll find them here.
A horse is poetry in motion.
