When Brooke, Keith and Scott booked their flights to work at Badminton Horse Trials in May – back after two long years of absence – they decided to find a luxury riding holiday to tackle before Badminton so that they could enjoy some brilliant time in the saddle themselves before observing top international riders having all the fun. Enter Liberty Trails with the ideal solution! Creating bespoke luxury riding breaks is our absolute speciality and we loved crafting an itinerary that worked for them, and that included concierge airport pick up, a ride in beautiful Windsor Great Park, two full days of guided riding on the moors, plus some private falconry.
Their smiles in these photos tell you how much they have enjoyed themselves on this luxury riding holiday, and these are seasoned travellers who have ridden in Mongolia, the Andes and through Patagonia.. They agreed with our assertion that Dartmoor matches anywhere in the world for beauty and it was our pleasure to show them this superb National Park at the start of their UK visit. Brooke, Keith and Scott have now booked to return in the autumn and we’re creating an altogether different itinerary for them this time – we can’t wait to see you all again!

Octavia Pollack from Country Life Magazine explains that to ride across Dartmoor with one of Britain’s top riders is an unimagined delight, especially when they are as friendly as Mary King MBE. She recalls having a poster of Mary riding King William in the first of her two Badminton wins and had adored her as a child. Yet, within moments of meeting her, she felt as if she had known her personally for years, such is Mary’s warmth.
