The MacRobert Trust has two private horse grazing fields available to rent on the edge of Tarland, ideally suited to owners seeking quiet, well managed grass pasture in a rural setting with excellent hacking opportunities.
These horse grazing fields in Tarland provide secure and manageable paddocks for up to two horses per field, allowing for responsible grazing and reduced overstocking.

Located just off the B9119, the grazing land benefits from direct access and is within easy reach of Tarland, Aboyne and Alford. This makes it particularly convenient for horse owners across Royal Deeside and wider Aberdeenshire who are looking for DIY grass livery with straightforward daily access.
Hacking and Riding Access
One of the key advantages of this horse grazing in Royal Deeside is the improving access to off road hacking. A new direct route is currently being created from the fields into nearby woodland trails. This will allow riders to access forestry tracks and countryside routes without needing to ride along the B9119, improving safety and convenience for both horse and rider.
The surrounding area offers a mixture of quiet minor roads and established woodland paths, making it suitable for regular hacking and varied exercise. The location provides a balance between rural privacy and practical accessibility.
