Transport horse to Arran

[Sanversera]

Can anyone help me find how to get a horse to the isle of Aran from Oswestry.

Ask Gillies to transport it and they ll organise the ferry. Or ring Calmac directly ..it’s a short crossing.

As above - came here to say "Gillies" & realised everyone else already told you!
I wouldn't start trying to save a few ££s by doing it yourself. People have done that & come unstuck with timetables, weight, height requirements of the various ferries. Go with the experts.

You could also try Roland Holmes. I’ve used him a couple of times and he’s really excellent.

It was going to cost as much for Ghillies to take my horse up to Orkney from Aberdeen as it cost to get her from Italy to the uk. The ferry transported her for £80 so do check around for prices.

(This isn’t a dig at ghillies btw. They would’ve had to book the lorry on the boat and it would be an overnight stay for them before returning so it would cost a fair amount.)

I’ve used Nutmeg Equine Transport, based near Ayr, to move my youngster lately. It involved a ferry.
