A recent spell of snow and icy conditions has prompted the question of whether park owners are expected to grit their park roads and footpaths.

As grateful holiday park owners and caravan manufacturers and distributors know, as a result of concerted efforts by certain MPs and trade bodies such as the BH&HPA, the government was persuaded to change their mind on the VAT treatment of holiday caravans. 

My recent blog on Dartmoor rights of way and my article in Exmoor Magazine have attracted questions about other frequent users of these bridleways – dogs.  Thankfully, most dogs are not aggressive towards horses but there have been some very frightening incidents which appear to be on the increase.  There are laws to encourage people to keep their dogs safely under control and provide a remedy for anyone injured by a dog.  What happens if a horse is injured?

Getting a horse for Christmas? Lucky you. Now all you need is a stable – but do you need planning permission?
