Cobs and Heavy Horses: Traditionals

Cob of your dreams.


Ref #: 378669
  • Suitable for the whole family
  • Will swim with your children on his back!
  • Safe in every-way!
£20,000
  • Cob
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 9 years
  • 15.2 hands
  • Suitable for the whole family
  • Will swim with your children on his back!
  • Safe in every-way!

Out standing 15.2hh cob gelding with the best feather I have ever seen on a cob in my life. Apart from being, noble, reliable, kind hearted, & genuine he loves kids! He lets them slide off the back of him, hang all over him, climb up him to get on. They can lead, ride, brush and handle him. He is a complete freak and will go into water for a swim with his jockeys also! Zeus doesn’t care about traffic, yard moves, environment. He will literally just do the best he can.

He will hack up the A14 or walk trot and canter round a school. He’s very comfortable to ride. More slow than go but not dead to the leg. Just so obedient. Good to stable or turn out. Welcome to try in any environment.

Genuinely kind cobs like this are so very rare to find and one that can carry men and women and also adapt to children is unheard of. He is solid and road stopping whenever people see him. He reminds me of something off a movie!

He could even do that! Cars can fly past beep at him and he will not flinch. He would carry your granny round the block or canter in open space with your children. He’s good in all ways. Open to any vettings, bloods. 5* homes priority and in absolutely no rush to sell.

He’s the best on the market. You will not find another cob like this boy in the country. There is no quirks. Only worry I have with him is when the children all handle him & lead him from the wrong side, in front and basically completely wrong is if they get their toes stood on! Please no time wasters.

He won’t go anywhere I don’t think will look after him the way he deserves as he has the kindest heart! Has driven before but we don’t have a carriage for him! Same home for years.


Stunning Blue Roan gelding

£3,500 ONO
  • Cob

  • Gelding
  • 4 years
  • 14 hands
  • Loves hacking
  • Quick learner
  • Recently broken

13.3/14hh 4 year old blue roan gelding.
Recently broken and taken to his new ridden life extremely well.

He has been hacking out in company, front or behind and proven to be a very brave boy. He is good in traffic but does need more work with motorcycles and cyclists but is getting better.

He's been ridden a handful of times in the school, just simple walk trot and canter.

He has been out to a pole work clinic in company of other horses and a very busy showing show, both times he behaved impeccably.

He's good to load, travel, bath, groom, tack up, mount and dismount, catch.

Please don't message me asking if he's currently suitable for kids or novices, he has only been broken a few weeks and there's no way joy riders are coming to ruin my pony, serious interest only, and experienced people only please. He has been started correctly and with more education and time he will make a wonderful kids pony.

Videos available.

Clydesdale Cross, Unbelievably Safe, Impeccable Manners

Clydesdale Cross
16.2hh Bay Gelding
Sure Footed, Sturdy,Weight Carrier
4 years…. Going on 40
Please don’t let his age put you off, he most definitely is wise and judicious beyond his years.

If your looking for a horse that has impeccable manners on the ground and when riding, something that is super safe, calm and not phased by anything, that is extremely low maintenance and can be looked after by a child, a horse with more whoa than go, dare I say it…… a bit of a plod, then Felix is your man.
This 4 year old is more like a 40 year old when it comes to safety, sensible, calm and straightforward, he is the most loveable gentle giant you could ever wish to meet.

Felix is currently working on my Riding School where he is being ridden by all level riders from complete beginners through to advanced. He has definitely got more whoa than go, so if you lose your stirrups / balance he come straight back to a walk without even being asked, he is extremely forgiving if you make a mistake.
If you have got a bit more experienced he will work into a nice outline with balance, flexibility and responsiveness to your aids, incorporating lateral work, he responded nicely to the leg throughout all paces, and he’s more than happy to jump a pole or log.
If you’re more of a novice, he will happily plod round on a long rein regardless of the terrain.

He most definitely doesn’t fizz up, spook, shy, rush, pull or behave silly.
Felix has the same chilled out temperament and attitude, regardless of where he is, absolutely nothing phases him.

Would suit a nervous or novice beginner / mature person or someone who wants to take life in the slow lane.

He can be ridden every now and again and have the same chilled out attitude as when ridden daily.

Felix hacks out in the heaviest of traffic without batting an eye lid, he will wait at traffic lights / roundabouts for as long as required without moving, he doesn’t flinch when articulated lorries, double-decker buses, motorbikes, tractors and trailers fly pass him as some speed.
He is absolutely not fazed by large plant farm machinery.

He has impeccable manners when ridden across open fields, cantered / galloped on grass verges at the side of busy roads, within a group he is happy to be lead file, in the middle or at the back, he doesn’t pull, rush or try and overtake, If anything you have to remind him sometimes to keep up.
Felix hacks out across open fields and through the busiest of traffic on his own with confidence and consideration, he is a sturdy sure footed gentleman.

He is excellent catch, load, travel, bath, clip, groom, farrier, dentist, vet.

He is currently barefoot, but was shoed with his previous owner in Ireland ,he has impeccable manners with the Farrier.

He absolutely loves to be pampered, he will stand all day without a head collar and lead rope whilst being groomed, bathed, cuddled and fussed over.
He stands quite happily in his stable eating his hay with the door open, never attempting to walk out unless asked.

He gets lead, caught and handled by the smallest of children, he is quite happy being dragged around the yard on the end of a lead rope.

He will stand at a mounting block without moving until mounted, regardless of how long it takes.

If being 100% safe is your priority and you want to come back from a hack or ride relaxed, fulfilled and confident then look no further.

Snaffle mouth with absolutely no gadgets.

He is stabled during the day and out at night within a mixed herd, he equally happy to be stabled or turned out full time, he keeps himself to himself and never causes any trouble despite being out with 30 other horses.
He isn’t clingy in any way and is happy being stable and or turned out solo.

Felix will give confidence to any rider/ handler and could easily compete at riding club level, fun/beach rides.

He can go for months without work then be tacked up and ridden without any fuss, he is extremely low maintenance, he maintains his weight all year round on grass and hay and Haylage during the winter months.
He has never been lame had laminitis, sweet-itch or sarcoids.

In the whole time I have had him I can honestly say he has never been lame, sick or sorry, my vet can verify this, he has passed the riding school annual inspections with flying colours, this is equivalent to a stage 2 vetting.

Looking for a five star private home to give someone the opportunity to purchase a safe and very sensible horse, with so much to offer.

Felix is Truly one in a million and really can’t be missed.

Absolute heartbreaking sale but we like to change our stock around about every few years to give our fantastic horses and ponies the opportunity to experience a one to one home again.

We have other horses and ponies available for viewings.

Photos and videos available upon request.

Lovley Cob non-mareish mare Ride and drive

£3,500 OVNO

  • Riding school type
  • Ride and drive

Darcey is a very friendly cob mare, once she gets to know you she’ll be your best friend, she loves a good fuss and is always coming up to me in the field and when being caught, good for farrier, and loading.

said to have been driven in the past but we have not tried this ourselves otherwise she is a good little riding pony.

She is a project for someone to bring on a bit more with her jumping and fitness but this little mare has the right brain and attitude to continue her education. She would be suitable for a confident adult or child as she can be bolshy in new places on the ground, more of this can be discussed with potential interests, since being with me she’s come on a long way with her manners.

We’ve found out from a previous delear she was with, she was a great pony. We found her to be good in mixed herd or separate turnout.

Shes had no health issues whilst with me, apart from a reaction to fly bites, where she came out in a few hives, went away after we had a fly rug put on her and hasn’t returned since.

She’s your typical cob always on the lookout for a snack or some attention.

She has been to cross country and jumped everything with no problems. She can come on a long way to be a good pony club or mother daughter share with the right people.

Priced too sell, tack can be discussed.


 

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE

Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

  • 15hh | 3 Year Old Bright Bay Cob Gelding
  • Full of potential

Benny Bob is a super stamp of a cob with a bright future ahead of him! This lovely 3 year old, standing at 15hh, is everything you’d want in a young horse kind, willing, and full of potential.

He is slightly bum high so he has a little bit of growing left to do.

He takes everything in his stride and always tries his heart out. Benny is the type who genuinely wants to please and is never sharp or silly. A brilliant blank canvas for someone wanting to bring on a genuine, straight forward cob with loads to offer.

He absolutely loves a good hack, happy to ride out alone or in company. He’s seen light traffic with no fuss, and the longer we have him, the more he’ll be doing including heavier traffic and a couple of fun rides allowing him to come along at his own happy pace.

Benny has fantastic manners in and out of the stable. He’s good to catch, shoe, load, and handle a real yard favourite and everyone’s best mate. Wormed and up to date, and ready to find his forever person.

We’ve no doubt Benny Bob would excel in the show ring with his presence, movement, and attitude. He moves straight and correct, with a lovely natural rhythm that will only improve with time and work. Whether you’re after a leisure cob, a future allrounder, or a smart show prospect, Benny is ready to be someone’s pride and joy.
Open to any vetting or inspections

16.1hh | 6 years old | Genuine & Versatile

A beautiful, traditional Irish Cob mare with substance and style – approx. 16.1hh and 6 years old. She’s been a reliable hireling this summer, taking everything in her stride from fun rides and beach hacks to cross-country schooling.

A lovely forward-thinking ride with a snaffle mouth, she enjoys her work and gives a confident, responsive feel under saddle. Still slightly green in the school, so would benefit from continued education if this is your focus – but she’s willing and learns quickly.

Brilliant to hack alone or in company, and completely unfazed by heavy traffic. A real sweetheart to handle with an excellent temperament – stands quietly for grooming, bathing, and general fuss.

Good with farrier, dentist, clipping & loading
No vices, lumps, bumps, or sarcoids
Ready for a variety of homes – leisure, riding club, or family fun

Don’t miss this genuine and loving mare – she’s ready to find her forever person!

12 year old stallion , approx 16,1hh. CHAPS graded.

Gov is looking for a home as an allrounder/happy hacker or at a stud.

Gov has a lovely temperament. He has done a bit of everything, ridden & inhand showing, dressage (elementary level), pleasure rides and a little bit jumping for fun.

He absolutely loves to hack and will go alone or in company. He is great to shoe, bath, clip, catch, load etc. he has no vices. He is very affectionate and loves a cuddle. Can have a loving nibble every now and then but that’s as far as it goes.

We have mainly done ridden showing with him, Qualifying for HOYS in 2021 & 2023. However, he is now retired from showing and finds it boring. Gov would prefer to have fun, go on pleasure rides, hacking and beach rides.

He loves in-hand showing and although he has never covered with his temperament I think he would be an asset to a stud. He is PSSM1 negative.

He is a gentleman to ride and has been ridden by most of the family.

Gov deserves the best home and this of upmost importance.

Only for sale due to personal circumstances. 12 year old stallion , approx 16,1hh. CHAPS graded.

  • 4 years
  • 151 cm
  • Totally correct conformation.
  • Going to be an absolute star in the showing world.

This beautiful cob gelding is a true 1 in a million of any cob you could possibly meet

He is going to be an absolute star in the showing world as he is as unique as he is  beautiful and he is a very good moving cob he moves 100% straight and is good and light on his feet and has very good hooves.

He has totally correct conformation

Admittedly he is a bit to fat at the moment due to me leaving him out too long in extremely good grass to babysit others  

He was measured today 30th june 25 and stands at 151 to 152 on his withers and he is 155 on his hind quarters and he is only a 4yr old so should easily grow more 

He is 4yr old and has been fully dna tested as i was going to keep him entire but i had him cut 12 months ago 

Murphy as he is very affectionly known has ben with me for 2.5years and was bought directly of the breeder he is the sweetest cob i have ever owned and ive had a few he loves people more than horses and you can do absolutely anything with him he has not ben backed as i dont ride but it will be a very very easy job to do with him 

He is completely clean limbed with no vices 

I would seriously love to see this boy in the show ring next year and not just being my farm pet please no timewasters as a very very good home is foremost

If he doesnt sell i will have him produced next year as he is undoubtedly a real top contender in the ring 

Open to a full veting

Same home since he was 8 months old. I have done everything with him and slowly produced him.

He’s done local shows always in the high placings and won reserve champion.

I have done one dressage test on him with 66%

Hacking he’s good in company but needs a confident rider on his own. He’s not suitable for a novice and please consider he is tall !

Good to catch, lead, stable, load, bath, clip, farrier, vet and dentist.

Vaccinations all up to date.

Lots of rugs and tack included in price.
