Hello, I am shortly moving back to Devon from being abroad for a while. I am taking the horses to Jacobstowe in Devon which is near to where I will be living. I think the place is quite close to Broomford? Manor.
I have had a look on the OS map of the area and couldnt see many bridle tracks etc. Does anyone on here live near the area and if so is there any hacking out at around there.
I did notice some woods on the map and wondered if it was possible to hack through those?
Thanks in advance :)
 
Hi do you mean near okehampton?i have just moved right near there myself with the horses and am investigating hacking at the moment.There is hatherleigh moor fairly close.where abouts are you moving too?are your horses going on livery?
 
Hi yes, near Okehampton. The horses arnt going into livery which will make it more difficult to find things out about hacking etc. We are due to move on 22nd Aug. a while away I know but I like to get it all organised in good time!. Please let me know if and where you find some good hacking and if not too far away maybe we could meet up and explore together. I do have a trailer.
Many thanks and good luck with your explorations!! :)
 
There doesn't seem to be any horses that actually ride out where I am and I keep mine at home too so riding out would be great!what do you do with your horses?there's great places to compete round here.good luck with your move
 
Hi, during the summer, mainly hacking them and the odd show. Really want to get back into jumping. And we hunt them in the winter. One is a 16hh TB and the other is 17.2 WB/TB tri coloured. As I mentioned I have a trailer and vehicle so can go anywhere really. Would love to start doing some clinics etc.
 
Do you have your own place?do you have an arena?just looking for one to hire at the moment.I show jump and have 3 horses&a little pony.the grange is brill for jumping and they do clinics too.in just looking at joining mid devon riding club as they seem to do quite abit round here
 
they will be going to our own place, yes. Sadly no areaa but will fence off a schooling are for the jumps etc. Have been to the grange before, some years ago and VERY excited that it is just down the road. Will keep in touch and then we can meet up and explore together. Just want the move to happen now. I will PM you my number.
 
Hi im in Okehampton too. We ride in Abbyford wood quite regularly. Looking at buying a trailer soon so could meet up if you like. Im also looking at going hunting with the Eggesford this winter on my 5yo.

You also have Southcott xc course just down the road and of course Dartmoor just down the road.
 
Hi,
Looking at moving to Jacobstowe, I can see Abbeyford Woods is quite nearby, can you ride there?
Also, anywhere else good to ride too if you cant box or trailer up, so places in and around Jacobstowe.
Thanks :)
