Why buy equestrian property in Dorset
58% of Dorset's farmed land is grass, about 117,763 hectares across 2,174 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.
The Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs National Landscape and the Dorset National Landscape protect a large part of Dorset, which is riding country with a bridleway network to match. New stables, a ménage, or a barn inside a protected landscape need more care.
Stables, a ménage, and a change from agricultural to equestrian use all need planning permission from 2 councils in Dorset (Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole and Dorset), and each has its own view on horses in the countryside. Our guides cover what to check before you offer.
