We are the only riding company to have an office based in Ireland and we know the Irish Hunting Community well. We are delighted to discuss your hunting requirements, experience etc and advise you on each hunt, the type of territory, match you up with a suitable hireling and co-ordinate all the ground arrangements.
There is something very unique about hunting in Ireland, Eve Jones of Tatler sums it up perfectly;
“They turn up to hunt, not to be seen to be hunting. There is humour and honesty in it. There are no fakers. Fakers don’t wear one welly and one riding boot, tie their hat on their heads and leap into the unknown.”

Generally, fox hunting kicks off around 11.30am and will finish at sunset. You’ll definitely experience some long gallops and jump lots of ditches or fences depending on which hunt you join. Mock and drag hunts are shorter (generally two hours) but fast, furious and full-on, often covering many dozens of fences/jumps in the two hours. This is sport riding at its best.
