BEAUTIFUL AND RELIABLE ALLROUNDER


Ref #: 399816
  • A lovely all round mare who will give someone years of fun
  • Amazing attitude and enjoys a variety of work
  • Snaffle mouthed at all times
£7,500 OVNO

  • A lovely all round mare who will give someone years of fun
  • Amazing attitude and enjoys a variety of work
  • Snaffle mouthed at all times
Scarlett is a much-loved, 15.1hh 2013 bay mare who has been with us for 10 years. Only for sale as I have two young children and I can no longer give her the time and dedication she deserves. She has been the most enjoyable horse to own and is now seeking a new home where someone can enjoy her as much as we have.

Currently shared between myself and my mum, Scarlett was bought as an unhandled/unbroken project horse in 2016, and has been slowly and carefully produced by us. She has been our family horse and has been used mostly for leisure, flatwork and hacking.

She is a smart, trainable, and honest mare with a genuine desire to please.

She’s well-schooled and works in a soft, consistent outline with 3 established and balanced paces. She would do a lovely test for someone who enjoys dressage.

Snaffle-mouthed, light in the hand, and forward-thinking without being strong.

Scarlett is not a novice ride and requires a quiet and confident rider. She is intelligent and responsive but can be sensitive, so can look to her rider for reassurance. She has real potential to progress further in her training with someone who wants to step her up a level, in a knowledgeable and experienced home.

She has all the ability and attitude to succeed in the right hands. She’s done limited jumping with us and is still green, but has taken to it enthusiastically. Always been sensible when jumped - in capable hands I think she would enjoy doing more of this.

Scarlett is good to lunge and long-rein.

She hacks alone or in company, and is used to moderate traffic including buses and trams.

She is stabled on a working farm with tractors, cows and sheep etc.

She has done farm rides and some clinics — always well-behaved. Safe and sensible to ride in open spaces with a calm, confident rider. Scarlett is happiest in a consistent routine and thrives with regular work. She is not suited to life as a field ornament and is best suited to someone who wants to ride regularly.

Good to shoe, clip, bath, and handle — she is polite in and out of the stable. Loads and travels well (only travelled in a lorry so far). Not suitable for turnout with or next to geldings. Can be turned out alone or with other mares. Currently turned out during the day in summer in a private paddock, and stabled over winter.

Up to date with vaccinations and teeth, and saddler and physio both kept on a regular 6-month checkup. She’s fit, sound, and in regular work, with no vices and her full history known. Ready to go and be enjoyed! She had a single sarcoid removed in September 2024 (inside of her nearside hind leg), which healed without complication. No other sarcoid history and never sick or sorry.

This is an incredibly sad and difficult decision. We are looking for a 5* home where she’ll be truly loved. Genuine enquiries only, please — I would love to stay in touch and follow her journey.

16.2hh
Shire Cross
Chunky Weight Carrier
Jet Black, 6yrs, mare

Astrid is a stunning Jet black Shire Cross with a big heart and a loving sole currently working in a riding school by intermediate level and above riders, although still green in the school, she is a genuine blank canvas with a lovely, willing and trainable nature. She is beginning to understand his flatwork, canters on the correct leg, and is learning to maintain balance and straightness. She is confident over poles and small obstacles and always tries her best; never sharp, spooky or silly, simply straightforward and eager to learn. With a more competent rider, she will work into a soft outline and is already showing promising development in suppleness, balance and responsiveness to the leg, including the early stages of lateral work.

She is wonderfully safe and sensible, naturally more whoa than go. If a rider loses balance or stirrups, she will quietly come back to walk without being asked, making him incredibly forgiving and confidence-building for riders with less knowledge.

She has a big, genuine heart and learns quickly. Despite not having done extensive arena work, she puts his heart and soul into everything asked of her. Her slow and steady outlook on life, paired with her calm, unflappable temperament, means nothing much phases her.

Her experience has been primarily trekking and hacking, and this is where she truly shines. She will happily plod along on a loose rein and look after his rider in any environment, making her a super kind, uncomplicated type for someone who wants to put their own stamp on a genuine, honest horse. She is most definitely a sturdy sure footed mare with a leg in each corner.

She does not fizz up, spook, shy, rush, pull or behave in a silly manner. Her chilled, steady temperament remains the same wherever she goes.

Astrid hacks in the heaviest of traffic without batting an eyelid, waiting politely at junctions without moving, staying rock-solid as lorries, buses, tractors, trailers, motorbikes and farm machinery pass closely by. Open fields are no problem either; she has impeccable manners in open spaces and has cantered and gently galloped on grass verges beside busy roads. In a group, she is happy leading, in the middle or at the back, never pulling or trying to overtake if anything, she sometimes needs reminding to keep up!

She also hacks out alone with complete confidence and a mature, ladylike attitude. Absolutely nothing seems to faze her, making her an ideal partner for someone wanting a reliable, safe and genuine horse who will give confidence and enjoy life at a steady pace.

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

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

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

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

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

Snaffle mouth with absolutely no gadgets.

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

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

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

In the whole time I have her I can honestly say she has never been lame, sick or sorry, my vet can verify this, she 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.

Astrid is being sold on behalf of my son as a private sale

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.

Ned is a compact little horse with a good amount of bone and lovely temperament. Ned is by Peters Brook a registered Irish Cob part bred out of a dam by Willie Joe, a unique mix of Irish blood that would make a nice show hunter/ working hunter pony type.

Ned has been an amateur’s horse for most of his life enjoying pleasure rides, hacks, beach rides and all the fun activities in between. He has also done a good few low level competions both showjumping and dressage.

In the school on the flat ned has started to progress nicely, due to the nature of his previous homes schooling has not been the top priority, now in a professional environment being schooled he has proven to pick things up quickly, works in an outline, has three nice paces. And would certainly excel as an event/working hunter horse.

Ned is happy to pop round a course of fences, he has a nice tidy jump and is not fazed by fillers etc. He is currently jumping 80/90cm with ability. He has also done a some cross country fences and loves the variety.

Ned hacks alone and in company, he has seen farm and village traffic and does not get hot up in open spaces. He would hunt as he is mannerly and very well behaved.

Ned is a lovely horse to be around, he is happy to live in or out, goes on the walker and is simply a very easy horse to deal with. He is good to load, clip, shoe, catch etc.

This is a sad sale with a genuine reason. We would love to see Ned in a home where he can continue having lots of fun and compete. For sale on behalf of a client.

15.1 Appaloosa mare 8yo. A kind, easy mare with genuine talent. She has three flashy, quality paces and a balanced, easy, natural jump, never phased by fillers. She is well educated and straightforward to ride.

Her owner has done a fantastic job giving her excellent manners, making her a pleasure to have around the yard and to handle. She is good to shoe, load and clip, and is easy in all aspects of daily management.

On the flat she works in a natural outline, moving in a rhythmical, correct way.

She has been hunting, where she was excellent – not strong or silly in any way.

Great to hack alone or in company. She is sensible in open spaces, does not get silly when cantering, and will happily pop ditches. Goes first, last, or sits quietly in the middle of the ride.

Seeking my next perfect pony! Must haves between - 14.1h and 15.2h, between - 6 and 15 , although would change for the perfect one.

Needs to be within 2 and a half hours of Derbyshire. would go further for the perfect one

MUST be safe around traffic , farm machinery , farm animals ( as I live on a farm ), happy hacking , schooling , fun rides , smaller jumps , local shows - showing , dressage etc

All year round turn out on private land , living with a connie gelding and mini shetland gelding ( can be in separate field)

Massive stables roughly 4 times bigger than an average one ! videos an pictures can be provided

Lots of land to hack around.

My preferred breed is a chunky traditional Connemara just cause I love the breed so much my previous Connemara gave me so much but he is retired now , but would consider something else that fits the bill.

I previously had a bad accident with my last pony on the road with a tractor and my confidence is very low , it's very important that my next pony is very safe confidence giver. I am aware no horse is perfect but I don't want anything sharp or spooky and nothing that bolts , rears or bucks , strong etc
more woah than go

I would prefer no health issues but if it's something slight I will consider.
more must haves are good loading , good for farrier , dentist , for leading and for the vet.

I have had weekly dressage lessons for over a year and then monthly lessons with jumping the year before , spent a lot of time hacking ,before my accident. I have had horses for many years and was a competent rider until my accident where I lost confidence.

I am aware this is a lot to ask for but I know somewhere they must be one for me :) genuine 10 star home awaits thanks !

Arlo is a great part of the yard – super friendly, kind-natured and very easy to have around.

He is happy living in or out and on his own or with other horses.

To ride, Arlo is an absolute pleasure. He is very much more woah than go, making him a comfortable and steady ride.

Arlo recently attended an unaffiliated showjumping show, and behaved perfectly! The busy atmosphere didn’t phase him at all, happy in the busy warm up and easy to handle in between.

He loves hacking and is rock solid in open spaces and in traffic. He hacks happily alone or in company and stands patiently while opening and closing gates.

Arlo has been ridden by many riders of different abilities, a super confidence giver - ready to get out and have some fun!

Many more photos and videos available.
