Saddle, Spa and Castle Stay

Escape the chaos of everyday life and immerse yourself in a unique weekend crafted for confident riders seeking a luxurious yet adventurous getaway.

This exclusive experience pairs two full days of fast-paced, expertly guided riding across Dartmoor’s untamed moorland with the refined comfort of a five-star stay at the award-winning Bovey Castle Hotel.

Think open landscapes, purposeful riding, and elegant moments of rest.

After a day in the saddle, indulge in the soothing sanctuary of Elan Spa—from massages to sunset cocktails, steam rooms to deep baths, every detail is designed to help you reset.
