Why buy equestrian property in Cumbria
89% of Cumbria's farmed land is grass, about 426,632 hectares across 5,117 commercial holdings. For horses that means grazing to rent while you look, hay and haylage made locally, and paddocks that come up when a farm restructures.
Lake District National Park, Yorkshire Dales National Park, the Arnside and Silverdale National Landscape, the North Pennines National Landscape, and the Solway Coast National Landscape protect a large part of Cumbria, which is riding country with a bridleway network to match. New stables, a ménage, or a barn inside a protected landscape need more care, and inside a National Park the park authority, not the council, decides planning.
Stables, a ménage, and a change from agricultural to equestrian use all need planning permission from 2 councils in Cumbria (Cumberland and Westmorland and Furness), and each has its own view on horses in the countryside. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
