Rider’s Paradise in Cornwall

We offer fantastic off-road riding on beautiful Bodmin Moor for beginners and for experienced riders. We limit rides to one family or group of friends at a time, which means we can maintain excellent levels of service and safety to make sure that all riders get the most out of their ride. We also offer self-catering cottages for both riders and non-riders to explore this unspoilt part of Cornwall.

Horse riding in Cornwall for all abilities

For beginners we offer a gentle half or full hour of trekking. Under 10’s ride on a lead rein. Minimum age is 5 years.

For experienced riders (12 years and above) – i.e. if you can confidently gallop in wide, open spaces – we offer one hour trail rides or a range of longer, exhilarating trail rides.

For riders on an experienced ride please note that our horses, whilst safe, are forward and love to jump, gallop and enjoy the wide open moorland so please don’t overestimate your riding ability! For any ride over 2 hours you may need an assessment ride for 1 hr (£45) subject to availability. Please call us on 01208 851500 if you would like to discuss which ride is best suited to your ability.

We’re also continuing to expand our range of fantastic trail rides for experienced riders whilst continuing to include our most popular  trails – The Poldark Trail and  The Rising Sun Trail – visiting one of the oldest pubs on Bodmin Moor. Our trails offer an unforgettable riding experience in one of the UK’s last great wildernesses.

We shall also be shortly publishing our 2024 calendar for Trail Rides and our Kids Club.

Trails for experienced Riders

From Cream Teas to Poldark

Our regular Trail Rides are ideal for experienced riders, exploring some of the hidden corners of Bodmin Moor with our experienced, friendly guide. For riders on an experienced ride please note that our horses, whilst safe, are forward and love to jump, gallop and enjoy the wide open moorland so please don’t overestimate your riding ability!

Designed specifically for experience riders, each week during certain times of the year we feature a fabulous trail, including our popular Poldark trial ride or how about finishing with a cream tea or Cornish pasty after 5 hours on the Cream Tea Trail! Find out more.

Take a look at our trail programme and join us on one of our spectacular trail rides for experienced riders. You are welcome to bring your own horse.

Mile upon mile of wild open moorland, rocky tors, atmospheric wooded valleys and gentle streams, all steeped in thousands of years of history. All waiting to be explored on horseback. And after an enjoyable time in the saddle, or exploring everything Bodmin Moor and Cornwall have to offer, you can relax in one of our smart self-catering cottages. See what some our our guests have to say about a horse riding holiday at Hallagenna.

Brilliant ride, just walking, but that was perfect as we got to chat to Jenny, and she's a very interesting lady. We had dry weather for the whole of the ride, making us all the more lucky to be out on the moor, on beautiful ponies, enjoying the fresh air xx

We had a great ride out on the Moor. There were a few flies about which bothered the horses a bit. It would have been nice to have had a little trott.

Great and clean riding stable. Very good and serious staff, also thanks to Sam, our guide. A pity that we only could ride a track of 1 (short) hour instead of 2. The galop was great! Horses very nice and well trained.
