Livery at Bishop’s Court Farm

Bishop’s Court Farm Livery was established in 2020. We pride ourselves on providing a professional range of bespoke livery services which are specifically tailored to the personal requirements of our clients and their horses.

 

Our livery is a friendly, happy environment where you can fully enjoy your precious time with your horse. The health and happiness of our animals is at the core of everything we do because we really are as dedicated to the horses as their owners. With 19 stables and a wide range of state-of-the-art facilities designed to suit the needs of every horse, we give each one the care and attention they need to make their life a happy one – a well-cared for horse means a happy owner.

Whether you ride around our unspoilt fields, go for a paddle in the lake, take a trip around Dorchester-on-Thames or venture up to the iconic Wittenham Clumps, our livery clients enjoy an array of relaxing hacks with direct access to a huge expanse of picturesque countryside.

 

PLEASE NOTE:

Horsebox access via Abingdon Road entrance ONLY. Please arrive from the Burcot side NOT through Dorchester village which is too narrow for horseboxes and trailers.
