Hi, we are new on here. We are a family from UK who are moving all the way from Doncaster to Tasmania, we have three kids 7,4.3
We cant wait. just waiting for visa. Fingers crossed. We are a horse mad family. We are hoping to buy a pony as soon as we get there. Anyone got any info about places to keep one around Hobart? I bet riding is great in Tas? Do you ride on the beach?
Any other Brits who are going or have gone?

Hmm, not sure about riding on the beach.. Though I can imagine there are a few around where it is allowed.

Not too sure about stables / paddocks for hire, But there are a lot of people down here who have horses and the like, so it probably wouldn't be too hard to find something. You can be in a semi-rural setting within 15-20 minutes drive from the main city, and it only takes around 2 and a half hours to travel to the top end of the state.

You couldn't have picked a better place to live !!

Beach riding, there are a few - on the eastern shore I know you can ride at the far end of 7 Mile beach (the bit where the gates close about ?7?)
Most of the areas where one could keep their horses on their property are a bit of a drive from the city, 15-30 min depending on which side of the city you end up with.
The eastern shore would probably be the closest and able to service most of your needs w/o a trip into town.
