Meet Chinook, a gentle giant who is looking for his new home as a hacking horse. Chinook would suit a home where he can slowly be brought back into work after a little break due to know fault of his own.

Chinook is the ideal partner for a hacking-only home. After a successful ridden career, he’s ready to enjoy a relaxed lifestyle and take life at a gentler pace with his next rider.

Chinook is currently living out 24/7 in a gelding herd. He is looking for a gelding only home, however, is happy to be kept in the field and stable next to mares. Our team are working slowly to get Chinook back into ridden work so would suit an experienced home that can continue to slowly progress with this.

Can you offer Chinook a loving home?

Please adopt Chinook

Leo is a beautiful little horse that's sort is hard to find, brought directly from his breeder so full history known.

He is an old head on young shoulders type,

genuine with a trainable and willing attitude.

A gentleman in all ways with the most amazing temperament.

Broken in at the back end of last year he was ridden away hacking and schooling and completing a small course of fences, showing to be very brave and honest. He was then turned away over the summer to develop and grow, with his future in mind, gently hacking around the country roads.

He's very willing, happy to hack out in company or on his own and is good in traffic.

Leo has come back into full work over the last month Walk, trotting and cantering in the school, and has been out to arena hire, where he behaved impeccably proving to be so genuine and quiet.

He is an absolute pet to have around, loves attention and is easy to do in every possible way.

Good catch, shoe, dentist, travel and trim/ bath.

Straight & correct with a good step.

A genuine sweet chap that has been well started but still a blank canvas ready for someone to put their stamp on.

The makings of a very nice Grassroots/ Intermediate WH/ Mother Daughter Share. Horses like him rarely come on the market.

5* home a must for this genuine boy please, sad sale. Open to any vetting

  • True gentleman with old head on young shoulders

Striking 4yo ISH Gelding, by Carrabawn Cross X Star Kingdom, with an attitude to die for way beyond his years. We really do think this lovely young horse has it all to be a fabulous hunter or Allrounder for anyone. He’s extremely easy to ride, ridden regular by my little 13yo sister, always in a snaffle and a complete pleasure to ride and have around.

Peanut has hunted in Ireland, and while here with us he’s been XC and SJing arena hires, UA SJing competition, lots of hacking and we have continued his education in the arena. He has beautiful paces, scopey Jump and completely unfazed by fillers. He’s now more than ready to go to his new home where he’ll make a top class hunter or Allrounder.

At home Peanut is a pleasure. He hacks alone and in company, he’s vice free and is the sort that doesn’t need riding every day. He’s out in a small herd but equally happy on his own or in.

Seasoned hunter, allrounder, riding club / fun horse. This very handsome 2016 16hh Irish (green book full recorded breeding) bay gelding is the real deal, there’s nothing he cannot do!

Apollo produces a beautiful test, he’s been in the dressage boards and schools beautifully, he has a lovely self carriage, comfortable and flashy paces and a soft snaffle mouth, he’s an excellent ride and isn’t remotely complicated in any way shape or form.

Apollo has done plenty of hunting, cross country, and showjumping.

He’s a nice type, and will jump off any stride and will absolutely help you out if you get it wrong, he’s most certainly a confidence giver over fences and oozes scope, doesn’t look at coloured fillers / rustic fences etc, just the type to take you and look after you.

Apollo is a true allrounder, he’s done a little bit of everything throughout life and is a nice quiet, yet talented ride. He has lots of hunting experience with three seasons under his belt but is equally happy doing riding club stuff.

Top Class Allrounder

Ref #: 392910
  • Gorgeous, armchair ride
  • Correctly produced
  • Athletic, scopey jump
£15,000
  • Belgian Warmblood
  • Dark bay
  • Gelding
  • 12 years
  • 17.1 hands
  • Gorgeous, armchair ride
  • Correctly produced
  • Athletic, scopey jump

Captain is a 17.1hh, 12-year-old Belgian-bred gelding by Game Boy out of a Grandeur dam.

A true amateur’s dream and a top-of-the-range, gorgeous allrounder, he rides with clockwork consistency and presents a refined, athletic silhouette that makes riders look good with minimal effort.

Having spent most of his life in the same home, Captain has been correctly produced and cherished by an amateur rider. He is unmistakably top quality, and while a more ambitious or professional setting could have unlocked his full Grand Prix potential, his mileage has remained appropriately modest for his calibre. His temperament and talent are undeniable, and he is exceptionally polite both in and out of the stable.

Beautifully schooled with an eye-catching presence, Captain has exquisite paces, a head turning floating trot, and an incredibly comfortable canter. Established auto changes and a straightforward, rideable nature make him a standout for a rider seeking versatility and reliability. He would definitely be a top export opportunity for the USA with ease for hunters/equitation/jumpers and would slot straight into any program, poised to be highly competitive.

Captain consistently jumps clear rounds both show jumping tracks and cross-country courses with precision at 1.10–1.20m. He adapts to the rider’s needs, stepping up or down as required, and is always balanced, with a clear sense of his own stride.

Captain would thrive in pure dressage, eventing, show jumping, or even a glamorous addition to the hunt field. He is beautifully schooled, sensible, and impeccably mannered, hacking out alone or in company. He is polite, easy, and free from vices in every way.

Handsome, exceptionally talented all-rounder with the temperament to suit an amateur or professional program alike, Captain is a rare find, he is a privilege to own and an absolute delight to ride.

A 5* home is a must for this absolute gentleman.

Maesmynach Romancer

£6,000 OVNO
  • Welsh Section D
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 9 years
  • 15.1 hands
  • Wonderfully Natured
  • Buckets of Fun
  • Genuine All-rounder

This 15h, 9-year-old Section D Welsh Cob Gelding is great fun, very sweet, and truly loving.
He's a horse who will happily turn his hoof to anything you ask of him.

Romeo is a genuine all-rounder, schooling nicely and happily popping a nice little fence.
He's good to hack, happier with friends but he's no real trouble. Goes through water, responsive and will safely and happily tootle around the common in a group.

Though he is low mileage due to a past splint fracture (which has healed perfectly and vets have never been concerned it would be an issue as it was the splint bone) he's fit, sound, and ready to go. He has already attended plenty of clinics and was superbly behaved at a small local show outing.

He is a delight to do, good for the farrier (never had need for shoes), good to load, clip, great for the vet. Romeo is a real fun horse who would thrive in a mixed activity home doing all the best things.

I have looked after Romeo for 3 years and he's been wonderful, it'll be heartbreaking to see him go but he's not the match for his owner and we just want to see him loved, adored and living his best life with someone who wants to enjoy club, camp, fun rides, hunting the list goes on.

Anyone here can hop on and do what they like with him, he's super fun and a real kick on guy!

No expense spared, he's up to date with every professional such as physio & dentist.

Please no novice homes
Sold on behalf of his owner
Priced accordingly

Beautiful horse inside out, would excel in a dressage/hacking home!

Ref #: 392127
  • Perfect to hack alone or in company

£10,000
  • ID x TB
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 5 years
  • 16.2 hands
  • Perfect to hack alone or in company
  • Dressage prospect, or equally turning his hoof to eventing in the right hands

Roo is back with me on sales livery after spending the last six months in a lovely home where he’s done plenty of hacking, schooling, and treadmill sessions.

I’m really hoping to find Roo his forever home now, he’s such a special horse, and I know him inside and out. He came straight from Ireland to me. I broke him in for his owner and kept him for a year’s schooling, so I have plenty of videos from the very start of his education right up to now.

Roo is such a loving, happy horse with so much joy to give to someone. He’s not spooky at all, you can ride him in any weather and past absolutely anything. He’s very brave and confident in his own skin.

He’s perfect to hack alone or in company, and loves exploring. He’ll happily plod around on the buckle end, totally relaxed.

Roo is schooling sweetly on the flat, though still a big baby who needs a balanced, confident rider, someone who enjoys bringing on young horses and getting the best out of them. He pops a fence nicely and is bold, though I’ve not done masses with him yet, preferring to take things slowly given his age and size.

He’s an absolute dream to handle in every way. I honestly can’t speak highly enough of this horse.

I can see Roo excelling in dressage with more work, or equally turning his hoof to eventing in the right hands. He loves a varied lifestyle and really enjoys hacking.

You can leave him for a couple of weeks and hop straight back on, he’s always good. But I do want him to go to a home that will keep him in regular work (at least 5 days a week) to keep his brain occupied and happy.

  • Incredibly sweet horse to be around
  • She is beautifully schooled

ENYA - Registered British Sport Horse approx 16.1hh 13 years old. Incredibly sweet horse to be around. Hasn’t had the kindest life which was very apparent on arrival. But you can instantly feel her warm and very kind soul and she seeks that connection and love.

A quieter mare who bred a couple foals more recently, therefore although she is beautifully schooled, she wouldn’t be the fittest or most athletic at the moment. But she really does try.

She has been hacked alone and in company on very busy roads and across open fields and this is where she seems her happiest, exploring life.

She also has displayed a lot of enjoyment with Natural Horsemanship exercises. She is a very gentle mare.

Based south east but I do have transport available.

Please text or WhatsApp if I’m unable to answer your call.

My daughter is very sadly outgrowing her wonderful 13hh jumping pony. He has been with us 3 years and is going no where but we can’t stop my daughter growing!

She loves to jump and do cross country and eventing so a super brave, fun jumper would be her preference.

She does everything with her pony so would want something kind and loving on the ground at home at out and about.

We do pony club and join in dressage, eventing and jumping asll as enjoying many hacks and rides round the farm ride and gallop field.

She’s happy with a whizzy pony as long as it has good breaks and is good in groups and open spaces.

Knowledgable family who will all love their new addion as much as we do her first pony.
