Red Velvet - Meet ‘Big Red’ - An extremely classy , show stopping 18.1hh, 11yo warmblood mare

No lumps or bumps nor vices
Very well related with talent and class all through the bloodlines on both sides!

Red is a well put together model with everything going for her! There is so much to love about her but I’ll try and keep this as short and sweet as I can.

She is the least chestnut mare I’ve ever met in my whole career. She could easily be a bay gelding! Handled by my 4 year old daughter on a daily. Perfect to shoe, catch, load , travel, bath etc! Easy as can be for any member of the family to see to. She extremely loving and loves nothing more than affection. Will stand statue still all day long to be pampered and loved.

On the flat she is one hell of a head turner. Red has been beautifully produced by her owner and as a result is very push button. Very obedient up and down the transitions. Perfect walk to canter , lateral work , and the trot … well , how can I put that! Let’s just say, that’s one of the most uphill and comfortable trots I’ve ever ridden. So much range and rideablity , you could just ride her around all day long. The type of mare that makes anyone look like they know what they’re doing. Has done very well in unaffiliated dressage test and I feel this is a sphere she would absolutely thrive in. She loves to work and is super easy. A nice leg in each corner type. I fell her potential in this sphere is uncapped

She’s no one discipline wonder … she loves to jump! Very bold and genuine over fillers. Most recently jumping double clear in the 80cm at summerhouse. Again, very easy to a fence and loves the job. Super forgiving if you miss etc. Would certainly go out and do this job also. Does have scope to jump bigger tracks with further production

Hacks out faultlessly!! Alone or in company , no questions asked type. Leads the way or happy to keep back. Bold and brave in the heaviest of traffic and is certainly my ride of choice. Infact, she’s everyone ride of choice which sometimes causes a tiff with the yard girls! Super in open spaces , stands at the mountain block , opens and closes the gates etc

There is a BUT with Red. She is with me on sales livery due to owner loosing a bit of confidence. 95% of the time she is as perfect as perfect gets. However, she has been known on occasion to have a big spook which has knocked some confidence with current owner. This is not something we have seen with her ourselves as of yet but is something she has been known to do. I don’t believe this will phase everyone , she’s been an absolute star here but is something to keep in mind. As a result, we will not sell to anyone novice , nervous or incompetent. This is an extremely difficult , heart wrenching decision for her owner to make. She only wants the very best for her and will absolutely want to stay in touch

Come along and meet her if you think she may be for you! It would be an absolute please to show her off. I’d like to keep her for myself but I think I may send my partner into a seizure if I buy yet another personal horse.

Rio - 15.2hh Polo Bred Gelding 2011 Liver Chestnut

Offered to the market on behalf of his owner Rio is looking for a new best friend to call his own.

With an extensive CV Rio has lots to offer.

Hunted with the bloodhounds, Rio proved unfazed by the busy atmosphere and enjoyed being around lots of other horses and having a fast paced job to do.

Beach rides and fun rides are his favourite. Lots of cantering and adventuring around the open countryside as well as dipping his toes into the sea.

Having previously played polo he is a responsive switched on ride and prefers to take confidence from a still well balanced competent rider.

Rio will ride in an arena although he does tend to activate polo mode a little more in this environment will be more responsive than he would be on say a happy hack.

Happy jumping logs and poles when out and about - not a ready made show jumper as this hasn't ever been asked of him. With time and schooling this could just be his unfound forte.

Great on traffic and is a brave sort. Happy to hack alone and in company.

Sadly Rio was sold to his owners 6 months ago and has come back to us to be sold as he simply wasn't a good match to his less experienced jockey. Since being in our yard we have found him ever so slightly worried so think the rider horse/ combo may have left him unsettled.

That said he has also been owned by a fun loving teenager and she idolised him. He was sold purely down to family circumstances at the time - she would love to stay in touch.

Not the type to nap, bronk or rear. Not suited to a novice home - Experienced quiet riders will allow him to shine.

An absolute saint to have on the yard. A gentleman in the stable. Recently trimmed by the farrier. Clipped and only needed extra hands to do his ears and head. No stable vices.

Loads onto a trailer like a professional and travels well.

Happy to turn out with mares and geldings. Is neither top nor bottom of the pecking order so will slot into any home / yard environment.

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.

  • To enjoy low level RC Dressage and Hacking

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.

Super teen or small adults event prospect.

Twix has recently been imported from Ireland directly from her breeder where she has been all her life. we have had many of her family members through the yard and they have all been cracking horses and she is no exception .

She’s had a great start and is now ready to find her perfect match here and give someone a lot of fun. She is an uncomplicated girl who wants to please and isn’t mareish. She’s got three good paces with an exceptional balanced canter, she’s got natural changes and is very athletic. She needs a bit more flat work to be test ready but tries to please and has good obedient transitions and is nice in the hand. Twix is very brave to jump and is schooling round 90cm SJ fences and has been XC schooling both with us and in Ireland. She’s very brave not bothered by ditches, water etc. and loves it, she will be a super BE grass roots prospect or do all PC and RC very well, I can see her doing PC/RC teams etc. She’s still a bit weak and has got a lot of filling out to do but will turn in to a lovely model.

She hacks alone and in company and is good in traffic. Nice person in and out the stable, she’s still green and learning about life and as long as things are introduced to her without stress she’s good and as such has been green but good to clip and shoe. Excellent to catch, load, etc. she will suit a competent teen or small adult to bring on further and have loads of fun with, she’s a real try hard and we all love her here.

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 is bold over cross-country fences, despite not having done a huge amount of XC to date.

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.

A genuine, straightforward horse with a lovely attitude and plenty of ability for someone to enjoy and progress.

Thomas has it all, genuine temperament, willingness to please and the ability to be a loving part of your family.

He loves getting out and about and is a fantastic hack, and is unfazed by anything. Thomas has been ridden by all members of our family and is equally happy with a child plodding round on him or if required, will step it up a pace for a more experienced rider - he just wants to be your friend and partner.

He is used to farm machinery and farm animals having lived on our farm since a baby.

Thomas has a willingness to please and is going well in the school. He has three, smart, correct paces and he would easily do some local shows this summer with his super flashy trot.

He absolutely loves people and attention. Very easy to do in all ways, great with the vet, farrier and he has been clipped the first time this year.

Lives out or in and is barefoot with good feet. He has lived in a small herd on our track system and is very friendly, wanting to be everyone's friend.

He would turn his hoof to anything but we would love him to go to a loving family who would appreciate his kind and easy going nature.

This is an extremely hard sale due to our son losing interest.

Due to his age he would be better suited to an experienced home.

15hh 10 year old HEART OF GOLD chunky weight carrier, gelding.

He is literally one of a kind. Tremendous bone, feather and a pretty little head with typical correct small ears. True to type, smart cob.

He hacks to the moon! Goes through woods, good in open space and in heavy scary traffic. He will swim in the river! And let children hang off him. Doesn’t mind if you lose balance slightly not sensitive and very forgiving.

If you’re an older rider who is just wanting safe and reliable he is truly the one equally if you’re wanting to do abit more, he will pop a jump and step up a gear.

Not a dead cob but also not an overly forward cob he’s that mature versitile inbetween. He’s just an all round nice person.

It’s very hard to find this height age and build - with a kind level head on his shoulders.

Rare kind cob, It’s a sad sale and absolutely no rush to sell. Lives off fresh air. Home is priority. Would never kick or bite and is never sick or sorry.

First to see will buy. I’d like a forever home please. Home is crucial. Open to bloods & any tests. He has never let us down.

Stunning 15.3hh bay mare with the kindest heart.

Nina has been extremely reliable. She won at hickstead in the derby meeting and qualified for the main arena twice.

We have owned Nina for nearly 3 years and know all of her history. She is a perfect bronze league, first horse for a teenager coming off ponies or an amateurs diesel horse.

She would be perfect to aim at HOYS 2026 bronze league final. Nina will give her new rider lots of wins.

She is a fun and forward ride and loves her job so would suit somebody like minded.

She has no quirks or vices and is not mareish whatsoever.


Up to date with teeth, worming, vacs and good to clip.

We had planned to put Nina in foal this spring as she is such a beautiful model but sadly we have come to the realisation that we are not in the position to start breeding and are completely overstocked. Nina has been in work for the last couple of weeks as we prioritised the young ones so she hasn’t been jumping, but she’s in work and ready to go. Price is hugely reflecting this!

No timewasters please she is very special to us and this is a decision not taken lightly.

Handsome, kind, sensitive soul with perfect manners and easy to do, a real yard favourite.

Billy has mainly been used for hacking and light schooling, originally from a hunting background he has demonstrated that he is willing and quick to learn new skills and his schooling is progressing well. He’s a responsive, comfortable ride with good paces.

Billy has such a kind nature, it’s one of his greatest assets, he’s wonderful to be around.

Billy needs a kind, confident rider, he’s not the bravest and takes his confidence from his rider. In the right hands he’s a lovely hack and once settled into a new home will hack out in company or alone, just needs time to build trust and gain the confidence. He’s a fun horse who likes to try new things, just needs a calm supportive rider to show him the way.

Travels well, happy being clipped and shod, good with the vet. Up to date on vaccinations.

Looking for an experienced and loving home for this wonderful boy who will bring his new owner so much pleasure.

Homebred Dapple Grey Gelding by Cevin Z

Rio named during the 2016 Olympics is the first horse I ever bred and is out of my first horse who took me to my first events etc and so unsurprisingly he is very loved and means alot to me! I have come to the hard decision to sell him as I have expanded my interest in breeding and now have alot of youngsters on the ground and more on the way! Rio much prefers low level 80/90 jumping to my desired heights and enjoys showing and hacking alot more than I do!! I feel rather than me keeping him just because i'm being sentimental it would be lovely to find him a home that appreciates him and loves him just as much but where he can do a job that he enjoys! Over the years he has been picked up and put down and always left till last as he's easy and didn't mind and my event horses always took priority! I'd love to find him a home where he is someone's everything even if that just means they have more time to brush him and share their tea and biscuits!

Rio has turned his hoof to most things! He's done RC/UA dressage, BE, BS, hunted, funrides, beach rides, borrowed by friends and most recently he went on loan to a family friend where he was very successful in show hunter classes with many wins and placings his most notable success was taking Champion at Devon County Show 2025 and qualifying for Royal International. He very much enjoys this job and I can see him continuing to be very successful at it!

He's brilliant to hack, alone or in company, rides and leads, excellent in traffic and happily nanny's the youngsters.

Rio is good to do in all ways, doesn't need riding everyday but enjoys plently of turnout here. He doesn't mind being in or out, and is currently out at night in in the day with a herd of boys. He's good to clip, shoe, catch etc. Has only ever travelled in a lorry.

Like everyone he's not perfect and does have a few notable things to consider which are reflected in his price. He can get mild sweetitch in the summer if left to his own devices however we've never had a problem with this as he has a jab for it and wears a rug and you wouldn't know its something that can affect him!

I have his SI medicated when I feel he needs it. Happy to discuss in more detail but this is something we feel benefits him.

He can be horse shy in small busy warm ups and trys to turn away from oncoming horses. This has improved over time and is generally fine in big or quiet warm ups. He's happy schooling with others in the school at home/at clinics/lessons etc.

A top long term home is a priority to me where he will be cherished! Although generally easy I'd like him to go to an experienced knowledgeable home.

Lots of photos and videos available right from only a few minutes old!

Sold with his tack and rugs

Rising 8-year-old Irish Sport Horse

Boo is a beautiful mare both inside and out, and this is a very sad sale for our family. She appears happiest competing around 90cm, while my daughter is now looking to progress to higher levels. Therefore we are seeking a kind, knowledgeable home where Boo can continue to be enjoyed and appreciated. Staying in touch with her new family would mean a great deal to us.

Boo has plenty of scope, comfortably schooling to 1.10m, and we believe she would excel at Riding Club activities, hunter trials, team chase, hunting or as a competitive all-rounder.

She is also regularly used by my daughter's college for BHS examinations, which reflects her reliability, level-headed nature, and consistency.

Recently qualified for the NSEA 80/85 Show Jumping

Boo came to us from Ireland as a 5-year-old, where she had mainly hunted. Shortly after arriving, she began competing in Arena Eventing, successfully qualifying for Hickstead in 2024. Since then she has been a much-loved member of our family and has proven herself to have a kind temperament and straightforward attitude to work and life.

She has attended camps and training clinics, travels exceptionally well, and is always a pleasure to take out. Boo stands quietly on the lorry and behaves impeccably when away from home. She can occasionally be a little enthusiastic in the warm-up, but she is never sharp or difficult and quickly settles with a relaxed rider.

Key Information
• Lovely conformation with correct, straight movement
• Careful, genuine and intelligent over a fence
• Hacks confidently alone and in company
• Excellent in traffic
• Loads and travels very well
• Very good to handle and manage
• Happy with time off and does not become fresh or difficult
• No vices, quirks, injuries, lumps, sarcoids or known veterinary history
• Very affectionate temperament and enjoys attention

Boo is a safe, sensible and genuine mare, ideal for a keen young rider or small adult looking for a fun, kind horse to enjoy competing and hunting.

Our priority is finding Boo the very best home.
Open to sensible offers for the right family

Bee is turning 9 year old this year, she has bred two beautiful foals in the past, currently empty, broken to ride but would need restarting as we only rode her once when she arrived to make sure she did ride, she was willing but super green so experienced people only.

Bee is the kindest most gentle mare, she’s on the timid side so would suit a quiet empathetic owner who has time to give her plenty of one to one. My 10 year old leads her around and handles her regularly, she’s a very mannerly girl.

Good to load, bath, shoe, up to date with worming, vaccinations, teeth.

Has a tiny splint on her front leg.

Experienced home only!
