Limousin Equestrian ZoneWelcome to the Limousin Equestrian zone. We are Glen and Trudy Hasker. Our aim is to provide a comprehensive source of information on everything equestrian in the Limousin.The site is designed to offer advice to Limousin residents who have horses here in France and also to those who are thinking of buying a house in the Limousin and moving here with their horses. There will be articles on equestrian property, horse care, riding schools, horse racing and competing. We’ll feature information on the big events such as racing at Pompadour and Le Dorat and any smaller events that are going on all year round in the Limousin. We plan to bring you true life stories as well as practical advice, such as how to register a horse in France. If your interest is in horses and the Limousin, then you should find something of interest here! Take a look around and if you have any comments, questions or an experience you’d like to share then e-mail us and we’ll be in touch.  Gallery
