Quasar de Charry x Lady Libussa

Quinton is a wonderful boy with a world of wisdom to offer his next partner.

To flat he has the most beautiful paces. He has previously been in a heavily flat worked based home so his schooling is wonderful. Despite his talent he is also super forgiving and by no means sensitive to mistakes.

Quinton has a lovely genuine jump. He has seen both coloured and natural fences with us and popped round in a mannerly fashion.

Hacks both alone and in company.
Good to bath, clip and shoe.
Good natured in and out of the stable.
If we had to pick faults he does have the odd little superficial blemish.
Completely clean legged.

Videos available.
Open to any vet inspection, viewings, trainers etc.

We are also open to part exchange however please note we do not accept any behavioural issues, lameness or badness.

  • Elvis - 16hh Reg Irish Draught
  • 8 Year Old
  • Gelding

Elvis is a superb allrounder with a positive outlook to life, both on the ground and ridden. To ride he is more like an over grown Connemara than your typical Draught.

Well established and relatively uncomplicated, Elvis rides nicely on the flat in all three paces. He is nicely responsive but not sharp with a snaffle mouth and good breaks.

To jump he is the coolest little horse. He schools round both coloured and natural fences with a smile on his face, a wonderful riding club type with seemingly enjoys his job whilst still sensibly listening to his rider. Easy to adjust and generally uncomplicated.

Elvis hacks nicely with or without company.

He is good to load, clip, shoe etc. Elvis will happily wait on the box whilst you go off with another horse. He wouldn’t be for a complete novice but he is a nice uncomplicated type for somebody to enjoy.

Open to any vet inspection, viewings and trainers.

Videos available via WhatsApp and any questions please just ask.

  • Perfect for someone on a budget looking for a dressage prospect or an equally lovely pleasure horse

16h Lightweight Irish sports 6yo black mare

A kind and genuine mare, that’s polite and well mannered. Iris was broken in the latter half of her fifth year and her progress in her schooling just shows what a great brain she has, her train ability is second to none.

Iris rides well on the flat, has 3 balanced paces with an expressive step and is also established in her changes. Has just competed in her first prelim scoring over 65% receiving such positive comments and showing real promise for this discipline.

Jumping she is green and weak however, bold brave and honest, unfazed by coloured or rustic fences, water, steps brushes etc. Has been xc schooling with a novice teenage girl proving she will go off any stride and doesn’t hold a grudge if the rider doesn’t find the perfect stride.

Loves to hack and will go for miles on her own or in company, good in traffic and open spaces. Not easily spooked.

Iris is easy to load, travel and doesn’t change when out and about, easy to tack up and get ready at a show on your own etc.

Lives in or out.

Perfect for someone on a budget looking for a dressage prospect or an equally lovely pleasure horse. Has been seen to weave at turnout and feed times hence her price.

Will continue to school and educate her whilst taking her out to competitions whilst advertised.


Unique opportunity to acquire a Quality Mare


Ref #: 403862

  • 10 years

  • Currently based at Twemlows Stud **Limited time left before returns home**
  • Proven Broodmare producing quality foals with outstanding Showjumping Bloodlines
  • Easy to do in all ways.
Unique opportunity to acquire a mare who could be AI’d while she is based at Twemlows for the next couple of weeks. Foaled 6th April so ready for someone to use themselves now.

Easy foaler, takes first time. Has full breeding history with Twemlows. Is a great mother to all her x4 foals on the ground, she has delivered quality foals with no complications.

Was professionally broken and ridden away prior starting her breeding journey. Is unphased by all types of traffic, hacks alone or in company. Has no affiliated competition history. Travels well. Has been to multiple venues, clinics, country parks. Easy to do in all ways, has great stable manners although prefers to be out as much as possible. Enjoys grooming, bathing etc. Low/cheap maintenance type horse who holds her weight.

Is up to date with worming, vaccinations, dentist etc.

This horse has always had the very best so a true forever home is most important where she can continue to be a broodmare or be a happy hack for a lightweight rider.

A very sad sale but i’ve come to realize I have too many to manage on my own. I have owned her since being imported into the UK 6years ago.

Does have a medical history therefore would not pass a vetting. However is more than capable of a light hack / broodmare home. Has no ongoing medical costs.

Depending on type of home a contract would be drawn up should she be AI’d while at Twemlows or available to a ridden home after weaning.

Latest video shows her with this years foal.

  • Hunter Trialled 80cm
Cleo is as lovely as they get. She has been with us for a full hunt season, giving many of our customers wonderful and safe days hunting.
She is only ever ridden in a snaffle and is a total on-the-buckle ride.

Always very chilled out, loads and stands on the lorry, will come off and tie to the side and stand quietly. Easy to tack up and mount from a block, and will stand nice and quietly at the meet. Good with hounds and large crowds of horses, even if the person behind you uses her butt for brakes.

She’s hunted with The Staff College Drag, Surrey Union, Coakham Bloodhounds and The Crawley & Horsham. She’s happy to stay at the back with the non-jumpers or be up front doing all the hedges.

We’ve been cross-country schooling with her around many venues such as East Bysshe, Lockskinners, Littleton Manor & Munstead. She has popped around unaffiliated at Felbridge and Pyecombe in the 80cm SJ. Again, always very chilled in the show environment. You can pop her back on the lorry to walk the course etc. and you don’t even know you’ve got her onboard, which always takes half the stress out of the situation.

To hack, she is very easy alone and with friends, open spaces, traffic, farm machinery and livestock. Where we are based, we have to ride through livestock, cattle and sheep on a daily basis and cross a very busy road with lots of big trucks and artic lorries. We regularly are out in the fields to feed them all with the tractor, which she loves as this means dinner time!

Easy mare, there is not a nap in her, never bucked, reared or bolted. Does not need riding every day. Bred in Ireland & imported in 2024 as a very lightly backed just started rising 4yo: produced correctly and slowly:

Good to load, catch, clip and shoe. Absolutely no vices what so ever.

We would rather she did not go to a novice home as she really does enjoy getting out and about doing the job properly.

Wanted genuine, safe horse for 10*, knowledgeable, forever home


Ref #: 403610
  • 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland
  • Mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus
  • 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland
  • Mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus

I am looking for a genuine horse to offer a 10* forever home on a beautiful private gated estate in Central Scotland, with excellent stabling, grazing, and endless hacking. This horse will join my much-loved horse of 20 years, along with my hunter who has sadly been prematurely medically retired, so a knowledgeable, caring, and experienced home is guaranteed.

References can happily be provided.

I am ideally looking for a mare or gelding aged between 5 and 12 years, 15.2hh plus, and no greys, cobs, or arabs please. I have extensive hacking, so must be good in traffic, non-spooky and no nappers, buckers, rearers please. I like really forward going horses, so something that is forward thinking and well-schooled would be ideal

Temperament is very important, so the horse must be kind and easy to handle on the ground and good to clip, shoe, catch, and load. I am looking for a horse with a nice attitude and willing nature, that is straightforward to work with and enjoys its job. I do not jump, so it does not matter whether the horse jumps or not.

I have previously competed in RIHS and HOYS qualifiers and so would like something smart and mannerly that will go in a nice outline. I do not mind a horse that has been retired from the show ring and looking for a quieter life or a change of direction. Happy for superficial blemishes but no health conditions/previous injuries please.

Any potential horse will need to pass a vetting and must have no stable vices - no cribbers/windsuckers please!

Based in central Scotland so sensible distances please but willing to travel for the right horse.

Please email in the first instance with full details and photos would be a plus.

As I do not sell on, no silly prices please.

Coco – 4yo Thoroughbred Mare

Recently arrived on sales livery and now looking for her next home. Coco was originally broken professionally in Ireland before coming over to the UK in early February. Since then she has continued to show what a genuine, level-headed young mare she is.

A super leggy model standing at 16.1hh currently and likely to finish around 16.2/16.3hh as she continues to mature. She has just turned 4 and has all the attributes to make a very smart eventing prospect.

Coco has beautiful movement, three lovely paces and a very willing attitude towards her work. She has already been cross country schooling in Ireland where she took everything in her stride and did everything asked of her. She is steady, sensible and exceptionally genuine for such a young horse, with a calm temperament and a great outlook on life.

She is also super scopey and gives the impression she could make a very exciting potential Burghley Young Event Horse type in time.

Professionally broken and riding away nicely, she is now ready to further her schooling and education. A lovely blank canvas for someone wanting a quality young horse to produce on.

Easy to handle and straightforward in all ways, Coco is the sort that wants to learn and please her rider. A very exciting mare for the future.

  • 7 years
  • 16 hands
  • Hacks alone or in company
  • Super eager to please - and loves her work
  • Easy to handle & barefoot

7 year old TB mare standing at approx 16hh. Raced but didn’t show enough ability to continue her racing career, so is now looking for a new job and her forever home.

Since arriving with us she has started work and, although still green, she is proving to be a very willing and eager mare who genuinely wants to please. She has been introduced to coloured poles and is trying her absolute best to learn, taking everything in her stride. A lovely type to produce further for someone wanting a rewarding project.

She hacks alone or in company and is very sensible. If she is unsure about something she simply stops and takes a moment to process it rather than reacting badly.

She is easy to handle, good in all ways and travels happily in a trailer. Currently barefoot and coping well, although if stepping up her workload she may benefit from front shoes.

A very pretty mare with a lovely big stamp and plenty of presence.

She does have a lump and scar to a front leg from an accident as a youngster. This is cosmetic only, she is sound and unaffected, but for that reason she wouldn’t suit showing. Plenty of potential for other disciplines.

A lovely mare with a fantastic attitude who will only continue to improve with education and mileage.
