“ I have never before, in my long and eclectic career, been gifted with such an abundance of natural beauty as I experienced filming War Horse on Dartmoor.” Steven Spielberg.
Dartmoor has many riding stables where a pub ride is a very popular way to spend a day on horseback, as well as the many horse owners/riders who love to get together for a fun trip out across the moor.
Perhaps not quite so much nowadays, but there was a time when pony trekking was a hugely popular all over Dartmoor, and many of the pubs still have the hitching rails outside where you can tether your horse while you enjoy a hearty pub lunch or hot pasty!
Bear with us…
There are lots of places all across Dartmoor where your horse is welcome while you enjoy your meal, and this page will be filled with them shortly. They are already on this website under their own pub/cafe/restaurant listings, they will appear on this page as well purely to make your search easier for you. Check in again for another look soon!
