A really rural refresh of dating profile interests and hobbies

We’ve refreshed the list of over 160 really rural hobbies and interests that mud lovers can add to their dating profile.

The Muddy Matches team have been inspiring rural romance and love in the countryside now for well over 16 years. The reason we are so well trusted, and what stands us apart from other country dating websites and apps out there, is that we actually live and breathe the rural life ourselves.

We know what makes country singles tick. That’s why we constantly check to ensure our way of online dating works best for rural and remote singles, and that dating profiles really celebrate the real realities of country life.

Flicking through other dating sites, we find them all a bit samey and template – yes, even other countryside dating websites – and don’t really recognise that the habits, hobbies and lifestyle of outdoorsy singles are a different breed.

We want to continue to offer a dating service that lets people show off their life in wellies – warts and all – as we know others will find it incredibly appealing.

With this in mind, we have refreshed up the list of over 160 really rural hobbies and interests that mud lovers can add to their profile. We know singles well use the advanced search to hunt out shared interests and common ground on which to connect – and are looking for ever obscure hobbies too.

So, after taking feedback from singles, the types of things we have now added added – and know singles are bonding over – include:

Axe throwing | Beagling | Buy British | Coastal/Beach | Conservation | Country fashion | Dog Obedience/Shows | Farmers Markets | Ferreting | Festivals | Foraging | Forestry | Geocaching | Gourmet Food  |  Heritage crafts | Horticulture | Lambing Season | Laser Clay | Metal Detecting | Open Water Swimming | Real Ale | Restoration | Smallholding | Staycations | Upcycling | Vegan/Plant-based lifestyle | Village life | Woodwork

We’ve cleaned up the list too to remove some of the mainstream stuff, but all the old favourites remain such as the top 5 picks; log fires, horses, tractors, agricultural shows and National Trust!
