15.2/15.3hh KWPN Mare – The Ultimate Schoolmistress & Amateur Dream

18 year old KWPN mare offered for very tentative sale.

A true schoolmistress who has previously evented successfully up to 100+ level and is now the ultimate confidence-giving partner for an amateur or someone wanting to learn the ropes on a well-educated horse.

Qualified Amateur & Veteran 85cm & 95cm Finals 5 years running
Absolute derby machine – bold, careful and knows her job inside out
Loves the beach / hacking adventures
Would produce a lovely dressage test
Forgiving, genuine and incredibly consistent

Perfect for an amateur, junior coming off ponies or someone wanting to step up. She will happily teach a rider and look after you round the ring.
Equally suitable for an experienced all rounder looking to just enjoy a varied lifestyle including dressage, farm rides etc

She is easy to do – good to shoe, clip, load and travel (great in any box, not a trailer).

Loves the beach and is a saint to hack, happily taking the lead and giving confidence out and about (not strong or silly)

She does have her own way of going. She is very much a “love her or hate her” type and rides more like a pony in that respect, but once understood she is incredibly rewarding (not dangerous in any way)

For this, she would suit a varied lifestyle and someone who enjoys building a partnership and not a novice rider.

Fit and ready to go out.

Equipe tack available for seperate negotiation

Open to any vet or trainer inspection.
Serious enquiries only

Zed is a seriously handsome, quality type with a kind eye and an even kinder nature. He’s the sort that everyone falls in love with, genuine, fun, and incredibly easy to have around.

He is still developing physically and learning to work in a correct outline, but is showing all the right signs and just needs time to build strength and muscle. He already offers three balanced, rhythmical paces and a lovely, willing attitude to his work.

Zed is an absolute dream to hack; golden in every way. He is completely at home in open spaces and has been out in forestry, across the beach, and through water, taking everything in his stride. He happily hacks alone or in company and is content to lead or follow.

He has a naturally kind, “look after you” attitude, making him a really confidence-giving ride without being dull, he’s fun, forward, and always on your side.

On the yard, Zed is as easy as they come:
Great to clip, bath, and shoe
Up to date with vaccinations
Loads and travels perfectly
Turns out beautifully with others will never bite or kick another horse!

A lovely, genuine horse with a fantastic brain and temperament. Zed is ready to go on and form a proper partnership with his new person; whether that’s for fun, hacking, or producing further.

No vices
No injuries

A super fun, kind horse that just wants his own person.

  • Show Quality Safe Alrounder

Buster was brought over from Ireland from the breeder in 2025, he had been very well handled and had a brilliant start in life and to his education. Since been with us he has been broken to ride slowly taking everything in his stride. He is super chilled and sensible in every environment, used to a hectic yard with other horses feral children, dogs and farm machinery. He has beautiful manners on the ground stands tied anywhere, loads on a wagon or trailer travels on his own or with others very well. He was perfect to clip and shoe, had his teeth done in January and is wormed to date.

Buster is hacking out on his own well, not phased my traffic and confident on his own. He is used to road work and been in open fields absolutely no issue.

We have not asked him for anything in a school as we have slowly started him but Buster has 3 forward up hill balanced paces which are the basic platform for anyone to put their own stamp on. He has a natural head carriage and oozes quality and that look at me presence with a cheeky face. He is snaffle mouthed at all times carries himself beautifully and correctly.

Buster moves straight from the shoulder very correct and flicks a toe, he floats across the ground effortlessly, has the potential for a top quality working hunter or event prospect with his bold inquisitive attitude to life.

Buster has been on group pleasure rides taking everything in his stride from travelling there standing before we set of, was sensible in open spaces in the group environment and travelled home perfectly.

Buster is full of a cheeky loving personality and ready for someone to thoroughly enjoy this summer!

His Sire is a Top Quality Producing Connamara Stallion, Rosscorn Abbey Tomboy who is by Laekens Cascade Dawn, hence where his beautiful movement and temperament come from.

The wonderful Zoey! A mare that I have become super fond of in the time she has been with me!

Zoey is a 10yo beautifully bred quality and substantial ID mare. She is 10yo, however she has spent 4 years as a brood mare, so has low mileage for her age!

In Ireland she has had a predominantly happy hacking career, being ridden by novices & hunting, being an allround family horse, along side breeding foals!

Since I have had her, I have hunted her with the Fernie, she proved sensible & very straight forward! She stood at the meet, and was polite and level headed cantering in the field.

Zoey is working well In the school. She is a lovely active forward ride, with a fabulous step in the trot! She is green for her age in the school- but her schooling basics are all in place to further her education and strengthening! She has a lovely big show horse canter, and is light in the mouth and wants to naturally go on the bridle- which she has picked up incredibly quickly! Zoey is a super intelligent mare, she loves to work in the school and learn new things. She fills the eye in a dressage arena and is a super attractive horse. I think she would make a very smart dressage horse!

To jump Zoey has taken everything in her stride and proven to be bold over fillers. She really wants to be careful over a pole and gives the rider a lovely feel over a fence. Zoey thoroughly enjoys her jumping!

Zoey has hacked in company and alone- she has been hacked on the roads and in the fields. She is a forward going marching on kind of girl, so not for someone who is looking for a slob!

Zoey is good to clip, shoe, load and travel, catch, bath, She turns out with others mares and geldings. stands on the lorry at a show. She has a capped hock and a small scar on her bum. Open to any vetting.

Vice free- her noteble ‘habits’ she can put her head high when you’re putting a bridle on- a small child would probably struggle to tack her up!

Looking for a 5* home for my 5* girl!

Axel - 15.2hh Gelding Black and White Irish Cob Weight Carrier

Axel is an exceptional 15.2hh 5 year-old Irish Cob gelding, don’t let his age put you off, he is super safe and sensible well beyond his years, he acts like a 10 year old, he is absolutely a rare combination of safety, strength, experience, and a heart of gold. He is kind, bold, dependable, weight carrier, ideal for a wide range of riders – from competent novice to more experienced jockeys who prefer a calm and steady ride.

Axel is beautifully put together and super sensible in every sense. A calm, considerate and willing gelding, he is the definition of safe and steady. He is calm and steady if your less experienced but also has a fifth gear if you can ride, he is so adaptable and can be ridden by competent novices then pick up his pace if you can ride, making her a perfect mount for riders who want to enjoy their riding at a relaxed pace without compromising on ability or responsiveness.

Ultimate All-Rounder

Axel has spent the last 18 months in a professional riding school environment and she has excelled with every level of rider, both under saddle and during stable management activities.

He has experience in flatwork lessons, both private and group, as well as participating in our in-house low level showjumping and cross-country competitions. He is confident over coloured and rustic fences, he would be good at cross-country, working hunter and hunting.

Axel absolutely loves to hack out and does so safely and calmly. He will happily hack alone or in company and has been exposed to the heaviest, fastest-moving traffic imaginable. He is completely unphased by buses, lorries, farm machinery and all types of vehicles. He remains safe and steady in all environments and does not rush or pull, even in open spaces or on the way home, you can gallop across open fields with loose horses running along side him, then immediately pull him up and allow him to walk on a long rein or ask him to stand while horses run around him, he is most definitely not sharp, spooky or spiny.

He has been truly exceptional during her time on the riding school, he is unbelievable forgiving when rider lose their balance, struipps or have a bad stride into a fence, he always takes care of her riders, his substantial build, with a leg in each corner, combined with her calm disposition, sure-footedness, and gentle nature, gives riders confidence to progress and excel. He will stand patiently at the mounting block while you mount. I can honestly say he has absolutely no quirks, vices or negative traits.

Although he is happy to go at a quiet steady pace, he is also responsive to the leg and has three beautiful balanced, steady paces. For more experienced riders he will work into a nice outline with enthusiasm and energy, always staying calm and sensible, he has never bucked, reared, kicked or bitten, he is the most loving kind gentleman you could ever wish to meet.
Snaffle mouth

Axel has outstanding ground manners. He stands for hours to be groomed and fussed over, with or without a head collar or lead rope. He is not clingy, and is happy living in or out. In the field he keeps himself to himself and never causes trouble, whether stabled alone or turned out in a mixed herd.

Axcel has a history of excellent health and has never had laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids, or any lumps, bumps, or unsoundness.

He is currently barefoot with strong, healthy hooves and is equally happy to be shod. He is excellent to clip, bath, catch, great to load and travel, fantastic with the farrier, vet, and dentist.

He is incredibly low maintenance, requiring no daily work. He can have weeks or even months off and return to ridden work without any fuss. He maintains his condition year-round on a simple diet and is easy to manage in every way.

He passes our riding school annual Licence Inspection, which is the equivalent of a Stage 2 vetting.

Axel is a rare gem. He is the perfect choice for someone looking for a calm, dependable, and capable all-rounder. Whether you are looking for a SUPER SAFE happy hacker or someone looking for a fun allrounder, a family looking for a versatile and loving horse, Axcel fits the bill perfectly. He is a genuine schoolmaster who provides confidence and enjoyment in every ride and will give her next owner years of pleasure.

This is a heartbreaking sale. As part of our regular stock rotation, we give our riding school horses the opportunity to move on to private homes every few years so they can enjoy one-on-one attention and new experiences. Axcel is ready to bring joy to his next rider and deserves the very best home. He has been truly exceptional. Sold on behalf of working livery, he is a private sale.

Here’s a horse that means a hell of a lot to me , check out my social media for his full story.

Dylan is an 8yo, 15.2/15/3hh, tb gelding
No lumps / bumps or vices
Had new front shoes last week and saw the dentist

Dylan is exceptionally kind and easy to own and loves attention. He is one of the kindest, most deserving horses I’ve known. He will turn out alone or in company, perfect to catch, loads and travels like a pro, excellent for farrier or vet , lives in or out , polite in the stable, perfect to clip and bath etc

Dylan has done some work in a riding school and a bit of everything in a private home where he was exceptionally quiet and laid back

I rescued Dylan in November of last year after he’d been extremely badly neglected and I brought him back from the verge of death. He is now in perfect condition, healthy from the inside out, wanted for nothing , and back in work. Dyl has had months of me feeding him to the maximum so he is not as quiet to ride as he once was and I’m sure will be again. He has not bucked , reared etc, very straightforward! He’s just quite excited when hacking in company. Ridden by my very quiet and light as a feather yard girl who loves him and has no problems with him. He’s a little dude!!

He is perfect in traffic
Always in a snaffle
Golden in open spaces
Pops small fences
Good in the arena

Even after everything he’s been through, he remains so kind and trusting. I want someone who is finally secure enough to guarantee they are stable enough to make sure this horse never wants for anything ever again.

Open to any inspection
Plenty of videos etc available

Monty is a smart well bred 16.1 , 16 year old ex event horse looking for a new best friend to enjoy low level RC Dressage and Hacking .

Monty is a well schooled /educated relaxed chappie but due to some medical issues that will be FULLY disclosed he would suit someone experienced and balanced wanting to have a quieter life not jumping and not someone wanting to be out every weekend competing.

Monty will produce a super test and thoroughly enjoys going out training and competing, Monty also enjoys hacking and is forward thinking and confident out on his own and in company.

Monty would benefit from a smaller lighter rider and to be preferably kept on flatter fields as ours are very hilly along with our hacking , we feel this will benefit his long term well being .

Monty loves being out in the field , he wouldn’t be a horse to keep in all through the winter but it also happy to come in ie for the night or in during the day what ever your routine maybe .

Monty has no vices at all and is exceptionally easy to have around . Homes absolutely will be vetted as we really don’t want the lovely boy passed around.

  • 18hh 2013 AES Chestnut Gelding.
  • Gentle Giant Dressage School Master.

Melman has been competing at BD Elementary(BD HALONA BUBBALICIOUS), training at home up to Advanced Medium with ease.

His main discipline is Dressage, but has done occasional jump/XC schooling which he has been genuine and fun. 

Melman is a true workhorse with a heart of gold. A gentle giant, he is trainable, sensible, and an absolute pleasure to be around. He has a fantastic attitude – not sharp, always willing – and is perfect for a rider looking for a reliable, well-mannered, and established horse.

He hacks confidently alone or in company, is polished at home, and performs consistently in the competition arena. He has also enjoyed some jump schooling and cross-country.

We are much more amateur dressage riders than he is used to and his teaching us the ropes! 

Important note: Melman makes a noise in his wind and is therefore not suited for hunting or sustained fast work. He has, however, passed a full 5-stage vetting for general riding and dressage, which is fully reflected in his value.

Despite this, he remains a fantastic, versatile, and well-established dressage horse, ideal for a rider seeking a safe, trainable, and genuinely enjoyable partner.

Serious inquiries only – a horse like Melman is very hard to find.

  • Classy and correct model
  • Fantastic nature
  • Flashy as you like

Broken and produced by myself, I know her inside and out and she’s been done correctly , she is one super straight mare with everything going for her!

Will be bitter sweet for me to see her go. I’ll be so jealous I can’t keep her and do more ‘firsts’ with her but on the other hand , I can’t wait to see her go on and be produced to the standard i just know she’ll be

Haribo aka Harriet is a smashing 16hh, 4yo , ISH mare

By a super jumping stallion

No vices

Live in or out

Been clipped and bathed

Broken and riding away perfectly

Been to arena hires

Jumped small fillers as well as solid fences on our at home XC course

Hacked alone and in company in traffic and open spaces

Not at all sharp or sensitive

Switched on and smart

Stands at the mounting block

Travels on a trailer or lorry

Heaps of jump

Moves for sheer fun

Well put together and very flashy model

Works as she should for a very raw just broken four year old. Smart as you like , willing as they come but not drilled into the ground. She’s very sweet, loves her work and is extremely keen to please

There is a heap to love about this mare and nothing at all to dislike

She is extremely sane but is just freshly broken so no novices , although she’d definitely take a novice in the future

Would be a top class allrounder

Does have a scar to back leg that is purely cosmetic but would obviously not be able to go to a high level showing home

I know how class this mare is , I’ve not had one like this for a long time. Best of home is wanted

I’d also be happy to keep her here on schooling livery if new owner would like more milage on her before taking her home

Open to any vet or inspection

Carter – 5yo 16hh Irish Sports Horse Gelding, stunning steel grey

Carter is a striking 5-year-old Irish Sports Horse gelding standing approximately 16hh, with full recorded traditional breeding. He is a quality young horse with the talent, scope, and attitude to progress up the levels, making him an exciting prospect for a competent rider looking for a future eventer, showjumper, or quality allrounder.

Carter is a forward-going, athletic horse who shows excellent natural ability over a fence. He has already been introduced to both show jumps and cross-country fences, where he has proven to be careful, bold, and scopey, naturally taking you to a fence with confidence. He has also attended a number of una?liated shows, gaining valuable experience away from home.

On the flat, Carter is established in walk, trot, and canter on both reins and continues to improve with his schooling. He has a trainable attitude and a willing outlook, giving him the potential to develop into a very smart competition horse or even a future schoolmaster with further mileage.

Carter hacks happily alone or in company and is sensible out and about. He has seen farm machinery and is good in traffic, proving to be level-headed for his age.

He is well mannered on the yard and easy to have around. Carter is good to tack up, stands quietly to be mounted, and has a kind, genuine temperament. On the ground he is easy to handle, good for shoeing, clipping, grooming, and leading to and from the field.

This is a genuine young horse with a bright future, but due to his forward nature and age he is not suitable for novices. He would thrive with a confident rider looking to produce a talented young horse.

A lovely gentle mare who does everything with a smile on her face, she always does her best to please. She is excellent to handle, really gentle, steady and sensible , an absolute cuddle sort in the stable, I’ve never seen her ears back, she is so well behaved at shows that I can even give her to my disabled husband to hold.

Having show jumped all her life in her previous home, jumping up to 130 tracks with a teenager, she is now ready to show someone the ropes at the lower levels.

This year she has been placed arena eventing, double clear everytime out 90 show jumping and has just scored 64% in her first ever dressage test. She hasn’t evented yet, but an eventing home may also suit her, she has been XC schooling this week where she jumped everything first time, ditches, skinnies, water and banks etc. see videos.

She’s is easy to load, shoe, catch, clip, she is just a really special and fun mare, the sort hard to find.
