Riding Holidays & Stabling

Ireland is known as the "home of the horse" because of its rich equestrian heritage, ideal conditions for breeding thoroughbreds, and world‑renowned trainers. We are close to Downpatrick and Down Royal racecourse and numerous other equestrian activities – a perfect base for equestrian enthusiasts.

Bring your horse on holiday and enjoy the magnificent hacking, take a dip in the equine "spa" of Simmy Bay and, if required, on-site stabling can be arranged, with tuition by Olympic Event rider Joseph Murphy who is based at Strangford View Mews.
