Beautiful buckskin mare, amazing temperament, safe, easy going

£9,250
  • Cob
  • Buckskin
  • Mare

  • 15 hands
  • Excellent to hack alone or in company
  • Easy to do on the ground
  • Old head on young shoulders

Beautiful 15hh 5 year old buckskin Irish cob mare, still bum high with lots of growing left to do. Don’t be put off by her age, she has the most amazing temperament and has so much to offer!

Misty hasn’t been rushed and has been left to mature slowly, she was recently professionally broken in and has proven to be the easiest of horses. She has a very willing attitude to work and is a very fast learner.

Although still green in the school, she will try her hardest for you and will give anything a go with no questions asked. She has seen coloured poles and popped logs.
Misty has mainly been doing lots of hacking, which she loves! She will happily hack out on her own and with others, she will leave horses mid hack with no fuss too. She is excellent in traffic, has seen heavy farm machinery, cyclists, motorbikes, cars and is totally un phased. The farm runs a shoot through the winter, the noise from the guns does not bother her. She has never bucked, reared, spun or bolted, doesn’t rev up in open spaces and is the same if you take her out anywhere in the trailer.

We believe she will make an excellent all rounder, she has a lovely active walk and is nicely off your leg. Even though she is only five, she fills you with confidence and will certainly give you many hours of happy hacking.

This is a very genuine sale due to pregnancy and not having the time to give her, we would love to see her go on to make someone equally very happy. Misty has so much potential to go onto enjoy many disciplines be it, low level jumping, hunting, pleasure rides, showing, dressage etc, she will make the perfect family horse for everyone to enjoy.

Misty is very good to clip, bath, good for farrier, vet and dentist, she will stand all day to be groomed, loads and travels like a dream. Misty can be turned out with others or on her own, she can be left out in the field alone and will happily graze if you take her friend away. She will live in or out and can be left in the field for a week and still be the same horse to ride.

We have lots of videos of her being ridden which can be sent upon request.

  • Ideal Happy Hacker
  • Reason for sale - retirement of owner/rider
  • Same private home since she was 3 - dearly loved
Striking, unspooky and very easy, friendly 15.1hh black cob mare (born October 2020) with significant presence who has been out and about locally and on fun rides - ridden by all ages (64-12).

She has the potential to do a lot more in the right hands. She has been gently hacked out over the last 2 years and is reliable, sensible and safe. Owner is now looking to retire from riding and wants to see her fully optimised as the SWEET horse she IS and the OUTSTANDING family horse she can become.


This little horse moves nicely and is happy to pop a log and is happy with trotting poles and cross poles but has had no formal programme of schooling. She is responsive and quick to learn. She can be hacked on the buckle end, is totally chilled in open spaces, never takes hold and is more whoa than go-go-go. She would be brilliant as a loving family horse and happy hacker with the potential to do low level dressage/ showing/xc .

We live on country lanes and she is good with the local traffic and farm machinery. Her field is in the heart of a pheasant shoot & the guns do not worry her at all. I have never even noticed when she is in season - totally unmareish.


She is ready for a loving owner who will be consistent and who wants to teach her and/or learn with her. (Please note however that due solely to her age and size and my desire to see her progress she will NOT be sold to a total novice or unconfident rider/handler). She is bright and highly teachable - as such she will quickly become “that horse” that many riders want. I have not given her the consistency or next step of schooling and life experience she now is ready for. I would like to see her being brought on and taken out and about intelligently and kindly with a view to being her owner’s “life horse”. She has had a great and happy start here with groundwork, hacking and slow, steady and kind life experience. She is snaffle mouthed.


She has been clipped the last two winters. Barefoot with good hard feet although she was shod when I got her two years ago. She is good to load and easy to handle. She lives in or out – solo or company & is a good doer. (She has been predominantly with mares although her first summer here she shared a field with a gelding and was fine.) She respects electric fencing and does not eat the wood on post and rail fencing. She is unfazed being left on her own in the stable or when her friends leave her from the field and is always pleased to see you when you come to the gate either to say hello or take her in for a groom/ride. Never been sick or sorry.


No timewasters , purchase agreements or loans . 5* home only and, please, only people ready to commit as a swift sale is necessary owing to travel commitments. Please text for a chat and further information, pictures and videos.

Searching For A Family Friend / Allrounder To Enjoy Hacking, Pleasure Rides, & Low Level Adventures

  • Full Up 14.2 - 15hh. Age 6 -14 yrs
  • Must Be Confident Hacking Out & Passing Farm Vehicles
  • Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar Type
I am searching for a trustworthy, best friend type to welcome to our kind, knowledgeable, family home. Our horses are treated as part of our family & they receive the absolute best of care. I would be happy to provide references & to keep in touch.

I have ridden for several years & consider myself a knowledgeable & capable rider. However, due to ongoing health issues with my horse, who is now retired, I haven’t ridden as consistently in more recent years & so I am no longer as confident as I once was. Therefore, I am seeking a laid back, best friend type, who does not need riding most days to remain safe & sane (realistically, I will generally ride 3-4 times a week).

We will be enjoying fun hacks from home, attending organised pleasure rides, forest trips, XC schooling & some clinics. I will at times want to hack alone but will also hack alongside my young daughter on her (sometimes quirky!) horse, so it is especially important that I find a level-headed, trustworthy type who I can depend on. Due to us going out in our horsebox regularly, I would like to find a horse who is good to load / travel &, most importantly, who remains calm & polite to handle & ride in different environments.

Our horses are kept at home with us & have all year turnout (stabled overnight during winter). I would love to find a gentle natured, polite character & a true best friend type.

We live in a rural area & although we generally meet very little traffic, when we do, it is often likely to be a tractor/farm vehicle. Therefore, it is hugely important that my new horse is confident around this type of traffic.

* I do appreciate that no horse is ‘perfect’ & that ‘bombproof’ does not exist & I am open to compromise, but please do just be honest about any possible known ‘issues’ as I will not buy unseen & would want to have any potential horse vetted *

We are based in Norfolk so ideally looking for something in or around East Anglia but would travel further if plenty of info, videos/photos could be provided beforehand. I have a sensible budget & very relaxed & loving forever home for the right horse.

Quality 14.1hh 5-Year-Old Irish Cob Gelding

A fantastic opportunity to purchase a genuine, kind-natured Irish Cob with all the attributes to make a superb family pony and all-rounder.

This handsome 5 year-old gelding has a wonderful temperament and is a pleasure to have around. He is easy to handle, stands patiently to be groomed, and is straightforward to mount. He has a willing attitude and always tries his best.

He is riding nicely in the school and, while still green due to his age, is proving to be sensible, trainable, and eager to learn. He hacks out confidently, enjoys fun rides, and has experience hunting in Ireland. He will happily pop a small log and takes new experiences in his stride.

Excellent temperament
Easy to handle and manage
Stands quietly for grooming and tacking up
Easy to mount
Hacks out well alone and in company
Attended fun rides
Hunted in Ireland
Pops small obstacles
Genuine family pony potential

With his kind nature, sensible attitude, and versatile experience, he would suit a family home, riding club activities, fun rides, hacking, or someone looking for a quality young cob to continue producing.

A lovely, honest pony with a bright future ahead of him. Homes where he will be loved and enjoyed are sought for this special boy.

What can I tell you about my boy. He has given me 6 years of absolute pleasure. Given me so much confidence to get out and enjoy horse riding again.

Norman will hack anywhere and carry anyone, from a complete novice to stepping up for the confident. He will go in any traffic, from main roads to country lanes. Will squeeze on the grass verge for tractors to pass. He will look after you and ensure you come home smiling.

He has been professionally schooled although he prefers getting out rather than going round a school.

Will travel in a trailer or lorry, in company or alone. Will stand happily tied for hours. Loves a good pressure wash. Live in or out. Stays in the field alone. In fact he is just brilliant to do anything and everything with.

Taken me on many fun rides. Pops a log, not a show jumper though. I adore him. Barefoot with really strong feet, up to date with teeth, vacs and worming.

Now if you want to school him every day then I won’t sell him to you. I can’t say he will jump 80cm as he probably won’t, and we don’t have a ménage to trial him.

If you want something to be part of your family, to put a smile on his riders face, and know that you will always come home safe then get in touch.

Never been sick or sorry whilst with us. Only looking for new home as I have another horse and no time.

I genuinely will only sell to the right home

Here he is! Stunning dun cob gelding! Dun. Irish cob . Gelding . 8yo. 16.2hh

Stable name - Buddy

-Kind nature
-Great temperament
-Becomes part of the family

Buddy has got one of the nicest temperaments you will ever find in a horse. He loves having fuss and attention and will stand to be groomed and pampered for hours.

He is a great allrounder. He schools lovely on the flat and has three balanced paces.

He definitely one to make it to hoys or county level. He is a great versatile cob he also has a lovely jump and has proven to be very willing and honest to a fence. Also recently been xc schooling which he has proven to be very brave and honest.

He is good to hack alone or in company. Not phased by farm machinery or the heaviest of traffic. In my opinion I truly believe you would be a life time trying to find his double.

This gelding is top quality and one that will go far! I believe he would be a great hoys contender for a maxi cob or show hunter.

He is good to load and travel.
Upto date to all vacs, teeth, back etc

Been to a local show this weekend ridden by an 18yo and he was foot perfect all day!

Not suitable for novices as he is a cob with a job!

Dallas - 15hh, 4 year old cob gelding.
Super genuine and kind cob that will go on to make his new owners VERY happy!
Riding sweetly for his age, super out hacking and in traffic. Goes alone or in company and loves to box up and go out and about for a hack and pop a log in the woods.
Working in all 3 paces in arena and starting to learn what it’s all about, he’d definitely pull off a sweet little test in time.
Been XC schooling and was really honest and tried hard, pops away happily. He’s not going to be the next Milton but he’ll give it a go!
He is an absolute pet on the ground and not a bargy type of cob. He absolutely lives for a groom and a fuss and would stand and be pampered all day long.
Super type that will go off and do a variety of things but equally would happily hack for the rest of his life.
Very easy chap to have around, not a stressy type he goes with the flow and takes everything in his stride.

Ultimate weight carrying, happy hack

£5,950
  • Shire
  • Bay
  • Mare
  • 5 years
  • 17.2 hands
  • Weight-carrying type
  • Fantastic attitude

A lovely, registered Shire mare looking for her next home.

Standing at 17.2hh, she is a true weight-carrying type with a fantastic attitude out hacking. She happily hacks alone or in company and will go for hours through woodlands, country lanes and on the roads. Nothing seems to faze her, and she is good in traffic, making her a confidence-giving ride for those wanting a sensible hack.

She is ridden in a snaffle and has good brakes. She is not overly sensitive to either the leg or hand, making her forgiving and comfortable for a less-than-perfect rider.

Having mainly been used for hacking, she is still green in the school and would benefit from further education in the arena should you wish to go down that avenue. At just 5 years old, she has plenty of time and potential for someone wanting to put their own stamp on her.

Good to catch, turnout, and with the farrier. Barefoot with strong, healthy feet. Turns out happily with both mares and geldings.

She can occasionally be a typical mare in the stable and may pull a face from time to time, but this is easily managed and does not affect her ridden work.

She is currently building condition and has already improved significantly whilst in our care.

A lovely, reliable hacking partner would suit someone looking for a safe, sensible horse to enjoy miles of riding on.

Rose can live with both mares and geldings, and could adapt to part stabling with a steady routine.

Rose can be a little unsure at times, especially when settling in, but with a quiet home and a calm, confident handler she will truly flourish. She absolutely loves a good groom and will soak up every bit of fuss and affection.

Registered name is Scrapmans Adonis 16.2hh 6 yrs full ID by Scrapman X Mountain Diamond

Big solid chap who will make someone a super hunter / pleasure rides/ all rounder type. Donny has been in the same home with small lady owner since unbroken 4 year old. He’s been started very slowly and allowed plenty of time to mature. He’s takes up the leg very well and although on the larger side is a light ride and has potential in the school, it’s not really his favourite thing though so he’s probably more suited to a home who will do more fun things with him.

Donny loves his jumping and is very brave and genuine, he’s never said no he will be a real weapon once tuned up and a bit fitter. He’s good round a full set of show jumps and loves XC schooling.

Hunted 3 times last season with the Surrey Union and was good, jumped everything asked of him with novice rider on board. He’s made for hunting, and although not a made hunter yet, shows all the attributes required to not only look smart but also be good across the country.

Donny hacks alone and in company , his preference is company but with an assertive rider is quite happy to go on his own. We feel this is just greenness and he continues to get better and braver! He’s been good in all traffic met to date, farm machinery, livestock, riding to the pub … none of this has bothered him and he’s always happy hacking with his ears pricked.

He’s a low maintenance chap and enjoys field life with his friends. He’s quite happy living out all year but will come in if he must. Currently out nights with us and super friendly with the other horses in the field. Donny is good to catch, box, shoe, clip but he’s not a cuddly fellow around people and prefers his own space, pulls faces over the door and silently swears at you. Horse savvy experienced owner would definitely suit him better.
