We keep our Dartmoor mares out all year round in a newtake (an large enclosed area of rough grazing) and they are rarely handled. However their offspring prove to be very biddable when broken either to ride or go in harness. They currently run with Hisley Saturn who is son of Hisley Solitaire, Dartmoor Pony Society Breed Champion 2007.
The Swincombe Valley, where the ponies generally live, is open access land but if you want to check where the ponies are please call before visiting (details below).
