Welcome to the home of Scarteen on the Internet!
Scarteen House
Scarteen House has been home to the Ryan Family since 1798.
Today the name is renowned in equestrian circles as a first class competition and training venue.
Scarteen Hunt
Scarteen has long been synonymous with Hounds, Hunting and hospitality.
When Thady and Anne Ryan retired to New Zealand in 1987, Chris and Sue took the reins and have maintained this tradition. The Scarteen (Black and Tan) Hounds have been in the Ryan family for over 350 years and attract visitors from all over the world.
The hunt has featured in many publications (magazines, books, films etc.) over the years and more recently, Michael MacEwan dedicated a book to the Scarteen history. Thady’s autobiography “My Privileged Life” was published in 2002.

Equi-
When Gwen Pearson passed away in December 2008, we were left with thousands of family records and photographs that few of us had ever seen! It had always been Gwen’s intention to share her archived collection with anyone who wanted to see it. We are gradually digitising this content and adding it to our archives. A new image will appear here every week.
Eventing
Sue and Chris have been producing young event horses since 1990. Scarteen graduates are now competing successfully worldwide. A facility has been developed whereby carefully selected horses can enjoy a tremendous introduction to a serious eventing career.
In 2001, a Derby Track was designed and built and since then this has been home to an annual Future Event Horse League Qualifier as well as numerous other competitions and clinics.
