"Moo" is the kindest soul with people and other equines.

Purchased as an unbroken 3 year old for beach hacking and fun, but I believe she is much more than that!

Ridden only twice a week due to my energy levels keeping my homebred Sports horse in work.

Moo is ridden by myself (aged over 60) and a 14 year old girl (see video). She will happily jump around a course of 70cm with scope for more.

Good conformation and her colour is hard to find with potential to do Light Weight Cob at county level and Working Cob.

Good to box, catch, clip and in traffic.

Full wardrobe available including well fitting good quality tack and rugs by separate negotiation

Heartbreaking sale so please no time wasters, nervous or novices.

Moo has a good brain and would not be describe as spooky. However she isn't a brain dead plod and is still slightly green.

14.3hh 9yrs old WPB Black gelding. Charlie is a very smart horse, he has 3 balanced flashy paces and works into a contact. Competed at pony club, dressage, XC and SJ events.

Charlie has a lovely jump happily popping course of 80 with scope for higher. Has done unaffiliated dressage with ability to progress.Hacks alone and in company. Good to clip/ shoe/ box/ catch.

Charlie has been our much-loved happy hacker and leisure horse. He’s mostly been used at pony club, hacking and schooling by our teenage daughter, but unfortunately, due to a change in circumstances our daughter is no longer able to give him what he needs.

He’s a fun, forward-going ride with that classic Welsh spark. He’s never nasty, but he does have that cheeky, intelligent Welsh nature, so he’s best suited to a confident and experienced rider who can enjoy and channel his personality.

In the right hands, he’ll make someone an absolutely brilliant partner and go a long way – whether it’s for hacking, fun rides, or even bringing on further if you want to do more.

5* home only where he’ll be loved as much as he is here.

Up to date with dentist and vaccinations.

Feel free to get in touch with any questions or to arrange a viewing/ride.

Ginger is exactly what everyone’s looking for – a total armchair ride with a leg in each corner! This lovely mare is built for comfort and truly knows her job.

She’s been regularly cross-country schooling and has hunted with the drag and trail. Ginger stands politely at the meet, is excellent with hounds, and will happily go first or last over a fence. She’s sensible enough for a child or novice out hunting, yet has plenty of scope and enthusiasm to suit a more capable rider who enjoys a good day’s hedge-hopping.

She’s a lovely, unflappable hack – never spooky or silly – and she absolutely loves a pub ride (especially if there’s a packet of crisps involved!).

At home, she’s as easy-going as they come. Nothing fazes her. She’s a pleasure to hack out, take on fun rides, or jump around a course. She’ll pop over anything you point her at – even the big, scary ditches – and has a fantastic shoulder to sit behind.

Out hunting, she’s a very comfortable, snaffle-mouthed ride – never strong or silly. She knows her job and gets on with it with confidence and style.

There really aren’t many like her about.

She is not going to suit a home with someone that wants to learn how to ride. She is by no means a school mistress but a good solid hunter.

Absolutely no stable vices. Loads easily, good to clip, and excellent with the farrier.

Any questions, please don’t hesitate to call.

A truly versatile and fun mare, who is ready to find her new home.

Victoria stands at 15hh and is a real "leg in each corner" type, being able to be ridden by children and adults alike.

She has completed all pony club activities, as well as hunting, beach rides - the lot! She hacks perfectly alone and in company and is the type that doesn't need riding every day.

She happily lives in or out, and has perfect manners to handle. She is very cheap and easy to keep and displays no typical mareish characteristics - she will turnout with geldings too.

Victoria would make the perfect horse for someone who wants to go out and win at showjumping every week, or equally who just wants to hack a couple of times a week - she really does it all! She is always willing, never silly and a true pleasure to have on the yard. Victoria knows her job and loves it, she fills all of her riders with confidence and puts a smile on their face.

Victoria is very sound and recently passed a 5 stage vetting, she has no vices or blemishes. She is open to any trial or inspection.

Victoria certainly doesn't look or feel her age, and is ready to fill her new rider with confidence and have fun!

We are looking for a loving home for a mare who genuinely deserves it, she really is the perfect horse and has offered us so much fun.

Just wow! This mare brings the sheer WOW factor to the market …

Ottie is a truly smashing Clydesdale x cob mare
7yo , 16hh - dun and white
Not a lump / bump / or blemish in sight - such a model!

She’s as kind as can be!! So loving and affectionate in the stable. A real joy to be around. Easy to turn out alone or in a mixed herd , equally happy to be in. Good with the farrier , good to clip, loads and travels well and is genuinely very easy to own in all ways

Ottie has been well hunted and seems to really love this job ! Certainly a looker on the hunt field!

For a heavier mare , she rides very light and athletic. She makes a beautiful shape , self sufficient in her carriage and is undoubtedly very smart!! She would go out tomorrow and do the most beautiful dressage test. Would also be rather flashy in the show ring! Snaffle mouthed and a nice leg on type. Established up and down the transitions and enjoys working in the arena. Has recently been professionally schooled

Ottie is super to hack. Regularly going out alone or in company. Currently hacking along 60 mile per hour roads without a second look. Stands to be mounted and opens and closes gates etc. she is very mannerly in open spaces and one I’d consider to be my yards reliable

Also loves to pop small fences. She’s been to arena hires recently and loved a good pop around! Wasn’t worried about fillers etc and would definitely go and do a lovely job at a riding club for someone

This mare does a bit of everything and has the upmost willingness to please you!

Ottie can sometimes put her back up slightly when you get on. This has never escalated to anything else. All she is looking for is your confidence and reassurance. She has only actually ever done this to me once and that was the first day I had her. It isn’t something that should put people off but if you’re a nervous rider then this may not be for you. There is certainly no malice nor intent there. She is a very kind and genuine little mare

Open to any inspection
Delivery available
Open to an offer for the perfect home to love her as she deserves

What a super sort ! Meet ‘Robbie’ - beautiful full up 15.2HH, 5yo , registered ID gelding with recorded breeding
Not a lump / bump / blemish / or vice to be seen
Open to any inspection

Robbie is what I like to call a ‘golden child ‘ of the yard. His nature and personality are just infectious. He is super kind , easy for any member of the family to see to , playful and mischievous as a baby should be and a dam right time waster!! You could easily spend hours on end with him. He is so affectionate.

Very easy to catch , load , trim etc ! Love in or out and- very low maintenance

Clipped this week without so much as a head collar on. He really does have the most amazing temperament

My client purchased Robbie from Ireland earlier this year where he had done lots of hunting and hacking and loves both of these jobs

He has began being educated in the arena on the flat and over coloured fences and shows potential all round to be capable of doing whatever you’d like him to do
Very straight mover with beautiful paces and a very comfortable canter
Always snaffle mounted and a leg on type

Robbie likes to jump and could be a nice little PC / RC type - a very capable and straightforward allrounder

As well as hunting , Robbie is also great out hacking. Alone or in company , so sane and behaves in a much more mature manner than expected. He’s actually been nannying my 16 year old show jumper out this week!

Stands perfectly to mount and is very good in open spaces

Robbie can be a bit cheeky sometimes in canter in the arena , nothing to shout about, just a baby!

Client is reluctantly selling as doesn’t feel her is quite her type and is perhaps a little on the quieter side for her.

Open to any viewing or inspection
This horse is going to be an absolute star!

Would make a perfect family horse, all-rounder, or safe hack. Ideal for a rider looking for something sane, sensible, and easy to enjoy — you could genuinely put your granny or granda on him!

A real yard favourite and a pleasure to have around.

Appaloosa x Connemara . He has been a good companion for a year to my older TB, but is so wasted here as has a lot of potential.

Straight moving, very well balanced and trainable, with a lot of character. He is inquisitive, intelligent and loves attention. I have no help, no facilities and am too old to start him, so he needs to find a kind and very experienced home. My tiny private set up is very quiet, so he needs to go out into the world and have a job.

Good to catch, lead, rug, handle, regularly trimmed, wormed. passport and vaccinations are all up to date. I will ONLY sell him to a good private home or a VERY reputable dealer.

He had some long reining/tack on etc before I bought him, and I have walked him out near a main road a couple of times but never have help to do more.

He enjoys time in the stable and can be left alone for a few hours, but would not be happy in the field all on his own. His rugs will be included

15.1 4yo Irish cob gelding

Larry is an absolute dream. He was recently imported from Ireland unbroken, he's taken to ridden work like a duck to water.

Larry hacks alone and in company - he's fab in traffic and open spaces and will go in front or behind.
Having only been under saddle for a couple of months he has only just started his education in the school after spending his first few weeks learning about the world hacking, however he's balanced, starting to work in a sweet but green outline with a soft mouth and he's super willing and a real pleasure to work with.

Larry has popped his first few fences and he's genuine , straight and easy. He seems to really enjoy it and always has his ears pricked to a fence.

Stands as solid as a rock to mount , unbelievably easy to handle , good with the clippers and to bath. Moves straight and correctly - big walk and canter , snaffle mouth. Forward going and responsive off the leg.

Potential to make a good show cob or he would be just as happy being a family , all round fun horse. Whichever path he goes down he will be someone's loyal best friend.
Has recently been to his first competition, he loaded and travelled like a dream, stood quietly on the trailer and scored 74.8% to come second out of a class of 17.

He has got some sarcoids , none of which are in a place which affect his tack so I am treating them homoeopathically at the moment - this has been taken into account and he's been priced accordingly. Please don't enquire if this puts you off.

An advert I never wanted to write but sadly my beautiful Highbury Phoenix is looking for a new home.

Phoenix is a star and is so easy to do in all ways. He is anyone’s ride and will step up or down depending on his rider. All the family have ridden him and my 3yr old wants to steal him daily.

I bought him following a 3-year break from riding and our first show was London international horse show where we were placed. We have competed in some strong HOYS qualifiers, being 6th in Three counties and the highest placed Amateur. He always tries his best and behaves.
He is the same if ridden every day, once a month, in a field, arena or hacking. He is not spooky and is regularly ridden passed pigs and trains.
He has a fabulous character and adores giving big kisses and loves a pamper.

He is excellent to box (lorry or trailer), clip, bath (stands like a rock when I can’t reach to put his hood on) ,shoe, physio , dentist etc…..

Phoenix is a lovely responsive ride; he is not a plod but has breaks and gives a wonderful feeling in his gallop. He has hunted with his previous owners, my husband has jumped him a little (not my thing) but I think he could excel at working hunter/working show horse classes. We have done some dressage, and he attends riding club.

I can take him anywhere by myself as he is polite and mannerly and just such a good boy (I’m only 5ft). He is happy to stay away at any show or just as happy to stand by/on the box waiting for his class.

Phoenix is currently out in the field in the day with his girls (Shetland and sec A) and stabled at night, he keeps himself to himself and doesn’t get involved in any drama.

He is ready to contend Any classes you want to do next season or equally just have fun doing a bit of everything. He still holds amateur status and would be fabulous for Search for a star. Qualified Amateur of the year show 2025 and will be sold with the ride.

This is a very sad sale and he will only go to the very best of homes.

Billy is a super sweet 10yo Irish Cob Type gelding standing at approx 15.1hh.

He is well put together with a good step, natural self carriage and a genuine willingness to please. He is green in the school for his age, due to spending the majority of his career out hunting, jumping hedges, walls and logs, before he ventured over to Wales from Ireland at the beginning of the year.

He’s good to catch, clip, shoe, load and travel etc, good in traffic and is a pretty uncomplicated little horse to have around.

Billy would make a lovely lightweight show cob or equally a fabulous low level all rounder for someone willing to put a bit of time into the schooling side of his education. He would also happily carry on as a hunter and I think he would probably enjoy a bit of team chasing too if you wish.

Please note he is a forward going ride and is responsive to the leg. For this reason please no nervous riders

Honey is a beautiful 15h dun & white 9 year old cob mare.

We have owned Honey for nearly 3 years and this is a very sad sale, one we'd hoped wouldn't have been quite so soon but due to my very tall daughter needing a 16h+ Honey is now looking for her next people to love.

Honey has competed in all disciplines and loves to jump. She has brought my daughter on from a 13h and given her confidence to compete at hunter trials, sj , unaff dressage, arena eventing and xc. She has jumped all types of fillers, water trays, coloured and rustic fences, hedges, xc fences and loves water, she isn't fazed by anything! She regularly goes to farm rides, arena hires, beach trips, gallops and out competing.

Honey rides a lovely dressage test and always receives complimentary comments and good scores. She is responsive off the leg without being sharp, works in a nice outline without being overbent and is straightforward and easy to ride with beautiful paces. She hacks alone and in company, never spooky, good in traffic (we don't have heavy traffic where we ride so can't comment on that but doubt there'd be an issue). She would happily hunt all day long.

Honey is easy to handle in all ways and is always handled and ridden by our 13 year old. She is never mareish and when in season doesn't change. She is good to clip (doesn't need tying up), load, travel (trailer or box), farrier (barefoot), catch, and bath. She lives out all summer and in at night over winter. Good with other horses, dogs, sheep, alpacas and people. She is a super sweet girl who loves to be pampered and cuddled. Her kind nature, fabulous temperament, lovely looks and great attitude make her a very smart allrounder who will try her heart out whilst also being your best friend. She is up to date with worming and vaccs.

Honey has been our daughter's world and this will be a very sad sale so only the best of homes need enquire. Please no timewasters or photo/video collectors.

She is for sale only, no loans/lwvb/payment plans.

Open to vet.

  • Looking for a cob / super safe type 14.2+ for showing, dressage, hacking and more!

I feel I am looking for the impossible. Someone who will give me the chance to get to know a horse before I buy. Maybe initially a share or loan if appropriate.

I've viewed horses who have either not been as described or owners/dealers who expect a decision straight away.

I'm trying to find a horse who will be with me forever, and I need time to ride several times to ensure we are a match.

I live in Suffolk and therefore want something local. I'm happy to pay livery and upkeep and can provide references too. Vetting will be essential.

Looking for a Cob / Dales / super safe allrounder type for showing, dressage, hacking, clinics, etc.

Healthy budget and stable waiting for 51-year-old lady who has been riding 9 years.

Would ideally want something older than 8 who hacks alone and in company and is established in walk, trot and canter. Jumping unimportant.

Offered for sale due to downsizing this winter, this exceptional 16.3hh Irish Sports Horse gelding is the ultimate “Rolls-Royce” of a hunter — safe, sane, and sensible, with a leg in each corner.

He has been an outstanding and much-loved hunter hireling with us this past season, taking a variety of clients out hunting and always looking after them. A true gentleman: mannerly, straightforward, and consistent — the same reliable ride every day.

A proper weight carrier and confidence giver, he will cross any country with ease and take care of his rider while doing it. Bold yet genuine, brave yet sensible — he offers the kind of safety and reliability that’s priceless.

He’s also enjoyed fun rides, beach outings, and riding holidays, and has several seasons’ hunting experience in previous homes.

Good to do in every way — clips, shoes, boxes, catches, and handles well — with excellent manners both in and out of the stable. No vices, clean-limbed, and a pleasure to have around.

In his previous home, he also competed in unaffiliated dressage, show jumping, and one-day events, demonstrating a lovely way of going and a willing attitude.

Only for sale as we’re cutting down the number of horses this season. Priced to sell to the right home.
