Exmoor Pony Centre

Exmoor Ponies are an animal to cherish: the worldwide population is now around 1,400, making the Exmoor Pony rarer than the giant panda. The Moorland Mousie Trust is helping numbers to grow by taking surplus foals and eventually finding permanent or foster homes for them, or sending them to environmental grazing schemes until they are old enough to be ridden.

Exmoor Pony Centre offers a half day Exmoor Exmoor Experience which includes a two hour ride on nearby Winsford Hill and costs £35 per person and Taster Sessions for the less adventurous costing £20 for two people, £30 for three and £40 for four people.

Visitors to the Centre can learn about the ponies history and those not wanting to ride can just go along and see our rarest native breed.

Road Directions

From the M5 exit at junction 27 join the A361 to Tiverton. Turn North onto the A369 then take the B222 to Dulverton. In Dulverton take the B3223 towards Lynton and Exford. Follow this road for approximately four miles, climbing up onto Exmoor. Once on the moor, turn left at the brown and white sign for the Centre, immediately after crossing the second cattle grid. Take the first right off the lane and the Exmoor Pony Centre is on your right opposite the entrance to the Ashwick House Hotel. Parking facilities are limited.
