Equestrian dating is hot to trot across the UK.

A quick look at Google trends confirms it; equestrian dating and dating horse people is a hot to trot trend in the UK online dating sector right now.

Much like profiles photos with tigers, fish, motorbikes or in front of gym mirrors was a thing when it comes to online dating profiles, a love of horses is now officially up there.

A lot of it is thanks to three day event rider Gemma Owen’s success on Love Island, but the interest in dating horse lovers has extended well past the summer, and shows no sign of slowing through Autumn.

At Muddy Matches, we have welcomed flocks of genuine equestrian singles keen to start country life dating with us. They come of all ages, and background; from all corners of the UK.

Take Nikki for example; Event rider, and self confessed ‘hopeless romantic’.

She’s joined Muddy Matches looking to connect with a likeminded rural single man who “doesn’t mind a bit of mud, hay or straw in their life.”

And rightly so; they are the main stay of lifestyle spent in muddy boots.

Nikki also wants a man “who doesn’t mind if she spends too much time at the yard.” It’s likely to be a negotiation point between any country couple.

Hmm, the attraction of someone who daily shows loyalty, dedication and a nurturing side, versus someone always knee deep in it, spade in hand.

Ladies and gentlemen, there in a nutshell is the harsh realities of rural romance.

As for equestrian love, who will you jump through hoops for?
