Horse Hire
If you do not have a horse to bring, then Lydford House can arrange for you to make use of the local riding stables for daily riding, treks and instruction. For those who are requiring extra horses or unable to bring their own, we are able to arrange, for experienced riders, horses which are hired by the hour. Please contact us for prices.

Cycle Hire: If you'd like to explore on a bike, then hire one of Lydford's cycles and make use of the private access onto the splendid Granite Way off road Cycle Path, part of the Devon coast to coast rout 27 trail. Full facilities are available for those who wish to bring their own bikes.

Walking : There are many walks which range from just a couple of hours to all day. Dartmoor is the largest area of wild country in Southern England. It is made for adventure, with plenty of scope for long hikes across wonderful countryside, full of archaeological remains. One of the best ways to explore is on foot. The area around Lydford introduces the walker to a wide range of scenery, ranging from gentle strolls through the village and surrounding woodland, to the fascinating walks through Lydford Gorge (National Trust). The river Lyd crashes through a series of waterfalls and whirlpools, the highest fall is White Lady - 98 feet. If you are seeking a greater challenge, just five minutes from house, at the top of the lane - the rugged landscapes of the open moor await you. Miles upon miles of granite tors, wooded river valleys, bogs and wide open spaces.

Fishing: Brown trout and salmon await on many of the reservoirs, lakes and nearby rivers, day tokens are available from the Hotel.
