  • Gus – Stunning 14.2hh 4yo with a great attitude to life
Gus is a seriously special young gelding who’s turning heads for all the right reasons.

4 years old and standing at 14.2hh, he’s showing all the quality, attitude, and temperament you'd desire.

He’s taken to his schooling brilliantly—willing, responsive, and a real trier.

Gus recently attended his first show where he behaved impeccably and came home with a 1st place. He took the whole experience in his stride without putting a foot wrong.

He’s also proven incredibly brave and sensible. He adored his first beach trip—straight in the sea and loving life like a seasoned pro.

Hacks out alone or in company and is unfazed by traffic. We’ve taken him up the gallops, and he’s happy to lead, follow, or ride independently—never spooky or silly.

Gus is level-headed, straightforward, and a real joy to work with. He has the kind of temperament that’s hard to find and is ready to continue his education in a knowledgeable home where he can thrive and reach his full potential.

Clean-limbed

No vices

Open to full vetting

At home Cici is jumping around courses of 90cm with more to give. She’s been to a handful of area hires and xc schooling with water etc and showing aswell as been on fun rides and pleasure rides and hacking all round the farm alone and in company.

She’s been hunting and this is where she comes in to her own, the type to stand and watch the hounds with good manners and temperament. She’s Jumped gates, tiger-traps, rails, ditches and streams. Happy to stay with the field or go away and be alone, Cici is snaffle mouthed and doesn’t get silly up front either with the hounds either.

She’s been slowly produced by an older lady and never been rushed, but sadly due to owners personal circumstances she is looking for a new home. a great type for Someone to crack on with and hunt with season to a type to be produced further in other disciplines

Sadly the reality of juggling 2 young children and dedicating time to an amazing young horse is tricky, either neglect my children or neglect her.

Superb temperament, super kind, lovely to do. Happy around dairy cows, sheep, heavy machinery, dogs and kids.

Shown Inhand twice as a 3 year old and came 1st and 3rd at county level (2nd show).

Has been sent away to be professionally started and has the basics. Been on a couple of hacks. Now turned away.

Would make a brilliant hunt/event/family allrounder. Would love to see her go on to fulfill her potential.

  • Cindy is a stunning 155cm 16yr old Registered Irish Draught Mare by Huntingfield Rebel
  • Taken part in dressage, sj, xc, eventing, working hunter, showing, beach rides etc

Cindy has been with me for 8 years and this is a very sad sale but she is wasted with me as I don’t have the time she deserves.

She is an amazing all rounder that has taken part in dressage, sj, xc, eventing, working hunter, showing, beach rides etc.

Cindy always scores high in dressage and receives amazing compliments from every dressage judge. She loves xc and will never stop at any jump, competing at eventing Ireland courses many times.

She is currently jumping 80/90cm courses due to me not having the confidence for higher.

She can be left off work for weeks or even months and rides like she has been rode every day, she is a very hard type to find.

Easy to shoe, clip, load and quiet to hack round the roads. She loads herself onto the box as I usually go to shows on my own with her. No vices

Anyone who buys her will be very lucky.

This wonderful homebred is only for sale as owner hanging her boots up. She’d very much have been her next hunter. Impeccable to back and spent the summer hacking away.

Is snaffle mouth, brave and good on her feet.

Has now been let down to grow and mature. I have no doubt you could pick her up and get straight back on.

She’s loose jumped and has shown to be brave and clever.

A change in circumstances forces sale of this lovely mare. Her owner due to health issues is having to stop riding and doesn't feel it fair to not allow Rath to go and be loved and have fun with someone new.

Having been in the same home for the past 8 years she has been greatly enjoyed and has done a bit of everything. Her full history is known before her current owner bought her as she was bought locally. Before this she was hunted in Ireland before coming over to the UK.

From sponsored rides, beach trips, cross country and arena hires; she's truly done a little bit of everything. Absolute dream to hack and loves a long Sunday hack to the pub! Goes in front or behind, very good in traffic, goes past anything or will wait and let things pass.

Although she has only done fun stuff (not much competing) she very much has the presence to do very well in Showing/WH classes. She has real presence and could be winner in the showring.

Rath happily pops anything, and her current owner has jumped her up to 90cm/1m.

She has been with me for 8 weeks now to be got ready to be sold, and has been brought back into work slowly (she was a little rotund after having a long holiday before the difficult decision to sell her has been made). We have made much progress and she is now out hacking at weekends and schooling 2 - 3 days a week, she's lovely to have on the yard and enjoys her work.

She has started schooling really nicely and more is being asked of her everyday. We can even manage a beautiful half pass both ways, so dressage might well be another string to her bow.. She has good movement and 3 nice paces, works beautifully in an outline and is soft in the hand so may well excel at BD.

Rath could suit a multitude of disciplines, she truly loves being around people and is the first to neigh at me when i come up to the yard. A really lovely pony that is also quite a good weight carrier.

No vices,
Loads and travels well.
Good for the farrier, good to catch, good to groom/tack up etc. Very easy all round.
All up to date with vaccines/worming/teeth.
Can be dominant over food with other horses (is not with people at all) but only typical ears back 'mare', nothing truly nasty and i've not had a worry about her being on my yard and out with others around food etc.

Beautiful dun mare, 6yrs old, 14.3HH.
Currently working in a riding school in flat, pole and jump lessons, but really loves being out hacking and hunting.
Maisie arrived with us as a lightly backed 4yr old, and has been produced by us to work in our riding school.
She has done a season of hunting last winter and has been out to many sponsored rides and hound exercises over the summer which she has loved. She is very sensible and reliable when she is out, she is snaffle mouthed and is never silly or strong.

A super allrounder type, comfy ride, has been ridden by lots of children and adults of all abilities and has proven safe and reliable, easy for the vet, farrier, saddler, clipping and good to lunge and load. Currently living out in a heard of mares, and also enjoys groundwork sessions.

Still green and finding her balance in her schooling work. She would make a perfect hunting/showing/hacking /all rounder horse.

We are selling her due to her preferring to be out and about hacking and hunting and we feel she would not enjoy working long term in the riding school doing multiple hours a day in the school, therefore we have decided to sell her now while she still enjoys her schooling work.

Please contact Sofia if interested- 07468584953

Extremely sad sale of my 16 / 16.1hh 5 year old ID x Connemara unregistered mare.

Rosie has been with a professional rider for a few months as it came to light she had been backed prior to coming to me and there was some unpicking to do. Rosie is nervous and requires a quiet, confident and capable rider where she can thrive with consistent work. Rosie will be an incredible horse with the right person given the right opportunity.

Rosie is doing ground work still but has not been ridden for a few weeks due to rider injury. She is sold from the field for this reason. She really wants to please but is just extremely nervous. A 1:1 home would be best suited to her so she can establish trust a routine.

Rosie is barefoot, seeing an equine podiatrist regularly.
She is up to date with everything.
She lives out, she can be stabled happily but is a mucky mare which doesn't do her feet well.
Size 6'6 rugs, full bridle, takes a 17.5 saddle.

Rosie does have a tiny sarcoid on her ear and has had one that expelled on her leg. She is on radiance gold sarc secret which is what got rid of the one on her leg so no doubt the one on her ear will fall off too. Because of this she would not pass a vetting. She is sound and has no other issues. Have had her back x-rayed and this is clear and showing she is still growing so will likely make 16.1 / 16.2.

On the ground Rosie is like a giant puppy, she will follow you around the field poo picking and will stand to be groomed happily. She can be snatchy with the podiatrist at first but soon settles, she's great to bath, is getting much better with clippers and will happily have her bridle path and beard done now, just needs a minute to know what it is sometimes. Rosie is not mareish atall and if I didn't feel like she'd be wasted staying with me she wouldn't be going anywhere. She's an absolute delight to have around and is very well loved. 10* home for life is very important.

  • 7 years
  • 16 hands
  • Adorable
  • Great temperament
Flicker, affectionally still known as little man as he came to us at 2 months old along with his mother.

This is a very hard decision to sell but my health as finally beaten me, he ideally will go to a home for life and be loved as much as he is here.

He is passported/chipped, fully vaccinated and wormed up to date, he has never had shoes.

He was sent away at 4 years to be professionally broken in.

He is very easy to do, easy to catch in field always the first down when he see’s you, follows like a little sheep when your poo picking, he loves human interaction.

He will be a blank canvas for someone with all the basic foundations firmly in place, he will school, he has jumped small jumps, he will hack out alone or in company, unfortunately as stated above my physical health wont allow me to make him the finished article.

To summarise he is an adorable little man with a great temperament, his potential is sadly wasted here and he is in danger of becoming a field ornament if I don't make the right decision for both him and me and let someone else takeover and release his full potential.

  • Established movements

Sally’ is an eye catching mare with a very trainable attitude and lovely personality. She started age 5 in a riding school and had been produced slowly and correctly in a dressage home from BD Prelim to BD Medium.

For the past year, Sally had predominantly been schooled for and competed in British Dressage. She had gone from being quite nervous at her first competitions to confidently and competitively competing at BD medium. She is established in half passes, walk pirouettes, simples changes, counter canter, rein backs, leg yields and all other medium movements. Sally would make the perfect Petplan horse, having gained scores previously of up to 70% at elementary.

Sally is happy to school in either a snaffle or double bridle. She is currently learning her changes and could either continue to move up the levels in dressage or take her career in a new direction.

Sally takes everything in her stride and would be suited to any kind of home, she has been to showjumping shows up to 80cm, cross country schooled over 90cm fences, confident in water and over ditches, hacks happily alone or in company and even enjoys a trip to the gallops and beach.

Sally is great with kids and often has a young inexperienced rider on her on lead rein and behaves perfectly. She is great to lead, groom, bath and load and travels well alone or in company.

Very kind, willing and uncomplicated mare who deserves the best of homes.
