We have just got back from a trip to Menorca which was and always is an 'equine treat'.

Menorca has one if not the highest equine densities in Europe with over 3,000 indigenous pure breed .Menorcan horses in just over 700 km of land surface.

The presence of so many of these horses is due to the enormous love and admiration the Menorcan people have for these magnificent creatures..

This beautiful and unique species of horse play a leading role in the local fiestas of the different towns around the island.

These horses are predominantly jet black with strong manes and a lively look. They are noble, strong and swift.


I have been visiting the island and enjoying the many and varied equine activities, such as the fiestas, the dressage shows and the trotting racing for over 25 years.

We are currently investigating the possibility of buying and bringing back a Menorcan horse to join our stable team.

If you would like to know more about these horses and the fiestas please do get in touch with me and I will happily share my knowledge of Menorca's equine delights.
