16 hand, stocky, solid 14 years old skewbald gelding,

Currently enjoyed as a happy hacker, but likes to pop a small jump, has done intro dressage and organised pleasure rides.

He likes to hack out with another horse ( or a willing husband on a bike!) Shilo is willing and patient but not a plod, he likes routine and is opinionated.

He is very strong on the ground and will nip given the opportunity. He needs to be in work and needs work, with coming out of winter.

Therefore he is not a novice or a child's ride.

Good to shoe, box and catch. Good with animals (except pigs!) and with traffic, cyclists, motorbikes, and tractors.

A good doer who needs restricted grazing and the sight of another horse when turned out.

He is happy turned out with either mares or geldings.

He is up to date with vaccinations, teeth and worm count. A very much loved horse who has been in the same home for 8 year's.

Caring home essential.

Will come with wardrobe.

Elsa – 13-year-old, 15.2hh Sport Horse Mare

  • Beautifully marked
  • All rounder
  • Amazing temperament
Elsa is a beautiful 13-year-old, 15.2hh sport horse mare with a kind heart and a genuine love for her work.

She previously competed in endurance and has more recently focused on dressage and general leisure riding, proving herself to be a versatile and willing partner.

She is forward going, fun, and thrives on having a job to do. Professionally schooled, Elsa is an honest and genuine mare who never says no to what is being asked of her. 

She would happily turn her hoof to a variety of disciplines or equally enjoy a knowledgeable leisure home with someone who loves getting out and about.

Elsa hacks confidently both alone and in company and is unfazed by traffic or new surroundings. She is incredibly well-mannered and easy to handle in all ways. A loving and affectionate mare, she enjoys a fuss and forms a strong bond with her person.

She is very sociable and would suit a home with other horses, as living alone would not be ideal for her.

This is a truly heartbreaking sale due to her owner’s health, and finding the right home is of the utmost importance for this much loved mare.

Recent 5-stage vetting (24/02/2026)

Open to any further vetting or inspections.

A genuine, honest mare ready to give someone a huge amount of enjoyment.

Fudge has been professionally backed for the last 8 weeks - with a sympathetic trainer (can forward videos).

Fudge now hacks out alone and in company, and is walk, trot and canter in the arena.

Now that the basics are in place, Fudge is now ready for someone to put their own stamp on, in any sphere.

Fudge is a beautifully marked buckskin and white and would do well in the show ring, he is a Cob X.

Fudge can be viewed at the professional yard where he has been backed / ridden away - sale due to lack of time and finances.

15hh 7 yrs piebald cob x Welsh mare

Fun all rounder and super hack. Would enjoy doing some PC or RC and has done unaff dressage previously.

Rosie is a sweet mare who is quiet to ride, and more woah than go, she’s not sharp or silly but can have an opinion on things and as such needs a rider / handler who’s not totally novice as we feel she would quickly learn to take advantage if she thought she could. She enjoys her work in and out the school and is keen to please.

With us she hasn’t put a foot out of line but does need reminding of her manners occasionally as can be a bit rude! Nothing someone half competent can’t handle though. She has been with older novice ladies doing some dressage but quickly realised they were a bit wet and she could walk all over them.

She’s a mare who likes a firm leader and then is an absolute doddle.

Please don’t expect a cuddly mare! She has a great resting bitch face, I feel this will improve but she very much needs one to one and to find “her person “, she’s not a biter or a kicker but just not in your face and pockets and rather be left to be a horse when she can. Rosie is very much a girl who likes clear direction, she appreciates an assertive human who just tells her to get on with things.

She hacks out very well alone and in company, will go first or last. Happy to go for a gallop then go back to a steady plod. Very good in traffic. Been hacking here with everyone from novice teens upwards. She’s still a little green in the school and her canter needs a bit of work, she’s been ridden badly and very backwards previously but improves every day, She wants to work in a shape and tries hard to please just hasn’t really been taught where the go button is so can be a bit slow with her transitions currently and falls out of canter.

She’s a nice mover with flashy paces and definitely has a lot of potential to be out and about willing rosettes but needs a bit of flat boot camp first. She loves her jumping and although green as grass never says no and jumps anything you ask of her. She has taken part in jumping clinics since being with us again ridden by keen teenager. With further work she will do all PC and RC activities, unaff SJ, XC etc. she would be a nice type to take hunting as she’s steady but capable.

Perfect to catch, box, clip, shoe etc. she’s very sweet with other horses, happy to live in or out. She’s a lovely mare that just needs polishing off in to being the perfect rounder.

16.1hh to mature to 16.2hh blue and white part bred ID gelding rising 4 yrs

Super young horse who will go on to make a wonderful hunter, RC all rounder, hack, a real jack of all trades type. He would suit most riders but is obviously green and still learning.

Guss has got the loveliest attitude to his work, exceptionally kind and willing to please, he has recently been broken and is riding very well for his age with a lovely mouth and natural way of going and you couldn’t ask for any more from him at this point. He has three good very balanced paces. He has had very little formal education in the school and has done a couple of half days hunting ( hence the hog as no one likes plaiting! He’s not itchey!) and been out hacking both alone and in company and has proved himself as genuine and sensible. He is working naturally on the bridle and popping a few small fences in the school.

Guss is a steady and sensible sort, he is hacking out well alone and in company and has been good in all traffic met to date. He’s a really simple type of horse, adores people and fuss, excellent to clip, catch, shoe etc and wants to be your friend. He’s not sharp or silly and although young is very much one that can be picked up and put down again with no fear of the ejection button being hit!

He has a huge frame to fill and will turn in to a substantial hunter/ maxi cob type once mature. Although he is obviously green as grass he’s very willing and would suit someone as a first young horse to bring on, he’s the sort that once he finds his person he won’t ever be sold on as types like him are impossible to find as older horses. He really will go and become someone’s best mate.

Guss is an old fashioned Irish type hard to find.

Storm is a beautiful 4-year-old skewbald mare standing at 15.3hh, currently with us on behalf of her owner to find her forever home.

She has a fantastic temperament and three correct, naturally uphill paces. She works willingly in the school with a forward, balanced way of going and shows a great attitude towards everything she is asked to do.

Storm has proven to be safe, sensible, and straightforward. She hacks confidently both alone and in company without any issues and takes everything in her stride.

She has recently started her basic pole work and is happily trotting poles and popping a small fence, showing a willing and uncomplicated approach.

Storm would suit someone looking for a fun and genuine all-rounder, whether that’s enjoying hacking and pleasure rides or progressing into the competition scene. She has the quality and movement to excel in pure dressage or showing.

A lovely young mare with plenty of potential and a very bright future ahead of her.

Good to Shoe, Clip, catch load and travel.

Lovely event PC/RC prospect

SOLD!
  • Irish
  • Piebald
  • Mare
  • 5 years
  • 15.2 hands
  • Good mover and jumper
  • Very uncomplicated
  • Kind and willing

Quality youngster who is a really lovely willing girl who only ever wants to please. To make an outstanding top end PC/ RC competition horse, enough scope to go BE/ BS, good enough paces / natural way of going for BD, well marked and a good enough mover for some showing, and just an all round good egg! She will go and turn heads and win hearts in whatever she does!

Lorri was homebred by a friend in Ireland, this girl has had the best start and been slowly and correctly produced with a long term future in mind, she will make a super competition type but is not sharp or sensitive and is forgiving girl and therefore suitable for someone to have as a first youngster to home produce, kid coming off ponies etc. Lorri isn’t at all mareish and super easy to do everything with.

Lorri is a beautiful model, very well marked and pretty. She has the temperament and brain to match this so is a real type hard to find. She is working exceptionally well on the flat for her age, she has a lovely mouth, 3 very expressive but balanced paces with the nicest canter. She is very willing and trainable and will do the most beautiful test with a little more fine tuning. She isn’t a sensitive or silly type and very rideable, always willing to please and absorbs everything asked of her and is a delight to ride each day. To jump Lorri is brave and scopey. She is jumping round a full course of show jumps including fillers and water tray at 80 cm and looks at nothing. She has attended a couple of training shows with us and jumped straight round. She had been taking part in group clinics with us and is always well behaved and much admired. She has loads of scope to go on and is naturally careful and clever to jump. She has been XC schooling and jumps ditches, water, drops etc with no bother, her brain is very willing and she loves to have a job to do. She would suit most riders and be the most wonderful first young horse for someone to produce.

Lorri also loves her hacking and is good both alone and in company, she’s met quite a bit of traffic and hasn’t been bothered by any of it. She’s got a lovely sensible attitude to life without being dull and will make someone the nicest little horse. Everyone here loves her!

Lorri is good to catch, box, shoe, clip etc. just the nicest little horse who will get snapped up!

Olive is a great young mare, very recently broken to ride proving to have a great temperament that could turn her hoof to any job.

She’s a fabulous mover so would look great in the dressage / showing ring but very athletic so I’m sure she’d have a great jump also.

Bred by the Tambrook stud home of many successful coloured horses.
