Livery at Bishop’s Court Farm

Located within easy reach of Reading, Oxford and Didcot and set on a 300-acre site in the historic village of Dorchester-on-Thames in the heart of the idyllic Oxfordshire countryside, 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.
Come and visit us and take a look around in the company of our Livery Manager, Catherine Pope, who has been working with horses for 30 years.
