I handle mary with my year old baby strapped to me! I wouldn’t do that with any others!


15.2hh cob cross 7 year old weight carrier, solid, fantastic bone mare. Where do I start with this tremendous mare.

Mary has done abit of everything, she will hack alone or in company, pop a log in the woods, will ride on open grass and school in an arena.

She is a laid back kind eyed type. She travels on a lorry or a trailer. Can lead her through a field of others she’s not turned out with and they can blast towards her and she remains level headed.

She’s fantastic in traffic and would hack to the moon for you. She does prefer company but very willing to go on her own.

She’s currently living out, although will live in also! - it’s a big deal a mare leaving a field full of horses neighing to her with dignity & straight onto a main busy road. She’s extremely quiet to clip! Will literally stand there without being tied up.

Any vettings or bloods are welcome. A kind loving forever home is wanted for this mare.

She’s very low maintenance to keep and no dramas, will turn out with another or on her own. Not a busy stressy type. I’d like her to go to an experienced home who is going to enjoy her. Welcome to try on grass, in a arena or on the roads.

No time wasters please.

16hh | 2020 Irish Cob Gelding

Tom is looking for a new home through absolutely no fault of his own. He was bought in June (with a clean 5 stage vetting). Unfortunately nerves have got the best of current owner.

He’s a sweet, genuine boy who naturally takes his confidence from his rider. He needs someone who is carefree and happy to kick on, give him guidance.

Tom originally came over from Ireland and has been well handled. On the ground he is a joy — friendly, polite, loves attention, and will stand all day to be groomed or fussed. Good to load, catch and bath.

Under saddle, Tom shows all the promises to be a fantastic all rounder, whether you want a dressage or show partner or a horse to go have fun on and go hunting! He has correct flashy paces. He has lovely movement and is keen to learn.

He’s ridden in a snaffle and has a naturally willing attitude, he has it all there just now needs to go out and show off!

He hacks alone and in company, has seen all sorts of traffic, and is sensible in open spaces.

He hasn’t jumped since being purchased, but previously enjoyed it and was bold and honest when he went XC schooling before his sale.

Tom will make someone a really rewarding partner — he’s safe, sweet, and tries his best, but he’s young and needs a confident rider who can support him and help him continue developing.

Not suitable for complete novices owing to age.
Lots of videos available on request.

  • Impeccably bred rising 9yo Irish draught
Harri is a high-quality horse with correct bone and limb, offering an excellent model for a successful career across a variety of disciplines. He is a horse of substance with outstanding breeding that needs no introduction.

Sire: Bannvalley Pride of Midnight
Dam: Dame de Flandres
Both sire and dam are both Class 1 Irish draughts. Both with extensive and proven competition records within their respective disciplines for themselves and their progeny.

Harri is a pleasure to manage and handle. He is easy in and out of the stable, straightforward to load and travel, uncomplicated to clip, and good for the farrier.

He has completed a small number of in-hand shows, where he has consistently demonstrated an excellent attitude and correct behaviour in the ring.

Under saddle, Harri has enjoyed a varied and correct education. He has spent time hacking and attending arena hires and is now schooling well on the flat and has started jumping. As a larger horse, he can be green at times, but he remains honest, willing, and eager to learn.

With his temperament, conformation, and trainability, Harri is a horse with the potential to excel in whichever discipline he is produced for.

This sale is not a decision made lightly. Same owner since a weanling.
Serious enquiries only.
Open to vet.

Please note: Harri has a small sarcoid on his sheath, which is superficial in appearance and has caused no issues.

Currently on sales livery with excellent trial facilities.

Price reduced due to no fault of his own, just reflecting the time of year

(Passport name: Jukebox Jenny)

Duke is a 7-year-old, 14hh Welsh Cob gelding looking for a new home. He is great to groom, tack up although would need a confident person on ground as can test boundaries, not dangerous but can be a bit bolshy.

He would be ideal for a confident child, or could equally suit a mum and daughter share, as he is sensible and enjoyable to ride.

Duke can be difficult to load and will need a confident handler or someone willing to continue his training in this area. Once loaded, he travels well.

This pony has been a much- loved part of our family and has taught a young rider all she needs to know, giving the confidence and enjoyment. Only for sale due to being outgrown.

Duke has been out to showjumping, hunting, the beach and horse-ball competitions.

Duchess is a serious stamp, that would excel as a show hunter, hunter or dressage horse.

Duchess is nicely bred, she is an Irish sports horse by ID stallion Western Blues out of an irish sports horse mare by Dock Leaf, she only has a small amount of TB blood, and to look at she looks like a full ID with good conformation and bone.

Duchess has previously been hunting in Ireland, once imported to the UK she has been in an amateur home enjoying hacking schoolwork, and riding club activities.

On the flat Duchess works in a beautiful outline showing off her stamp and presence. She is currently working at prelim/novice level with all the ability and attitude to go up the levels. She has competed at a training show with us, she was well behaved and judges commented on her correct way of going and ability.

Duchess hasn’t done an excessive amount of jumping due to her previous home not being jumpers. She has been around courses here of 70/80cm always progressing well and eager to please. She would be a super allrounder for someone wanting to have fun.

Duchess is good to hack alone and in company, and would certainly enjoy being back out on the hunt field, and recently did some fun rides. She is mannerly and does not get hot up in open spaces. Good in traffic, and is a reliable sort out hacking.

Duchess is not marish, she is good in the stable. She is good to catch, load, shoe, clip etc. She is a very easy horse to deal with and a pleasure to have on the yard.

For sale on behalf of a client, a sad sale with a genuine reason. Good home is priority.

No vices
