Dylan
17hh 8 year old bay gelding by Guindam out of a Una II mare (by Darco)

Dylan is a striking attractive model with 3 flashy powerful paces. He is correctly put together and has world class breeding. With his sire being Guindam and his mother being out of the legendary Una II (by Darco)

Dylan has been professionally schooled on the flat with auto changes and works nice and softly at all times. He has big, flashy, powerful paces.

Despite being a big horse Dylan is never strong and is ridden in a snaffle and currently ridden at home and competition by a 15 year old girl.

He is ultra brave and forgiving, he would turn his hoof to any job such as, eventing, working hunter, leisure rides not just showjumping.

He is very good to hack and good in open spaces

Good to lead, load, catch and is the friendliest horse in the yard.

Dylan had someone run into him in the warm up, hence why we have put red ribbons on him. He is absolutely not a kicker, and he has massively improved but it did rattle his confidence however the more he goes out im sure it will be forgotten.

By Cocktail jet (Capitol)

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.

  • Mare
  • 10 years
  • 16.2 hands
  • Registered with Suffolk Horse Society
  • Kind, steady, sensible nature
  • Show quality
Bunny is a very kind, steady and intelligent mare with a genuine, sensible temperament. She has been professionally broken to both ride and drive and is a pleasure to handle in all respects. She has not been in regular work recently due to lack of time and would benefit from a gradual return to work.

She lives on a working farm and is accustomed to heavy machinery, farm activity and being turned out alongside a busy road. She has excellent manners on the ground, is easy to catch, handle and groom, and is perfect for the vet and farrier (currently barefoot).

Bunny has clean limbs, correct conformation and lovely paces. She would suit a variety of roles including ridden work, harness work or as a quality broodmare.

Up to date with worming, vaccinations and teeth. Happy to live out or stable and mixes well with other horses.

Bunny is bonded with Boris (also advertised) and ideally we would like them to remain together, as they are very well matched in temperament and companionship. A combined price of £11,000 would be considered for the pair.

This decision has not been taken lightly - Bunny has been in the same home for over eight years and is a much-valued member of the farm.

Best suited to an experienced home familiar with heavy horses and with appropriate facilities and grazing. Homes will be carefully considered.

Currently living out 24/7 un-rugged in winter condition.

Saddle, bridle, harness and 100+ year old agricultural cart available by separate negotiation.

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.

Here we have the most wonderful chap you could wish for. He is super genuine and great to deal with ( he doesn't know his size!)

Best suited to someone that wants to hack out and do pleasure rides. Hes a big lad and just not made for the school. Lol.

Hes great to hack, good in traffic. He will go alone or in company but does need a little nudge to go alone if he thinks he doesn't have to. No badness in him he will just try and turn around.

He does have very mild cpl and is easily kept on top of with clipping his legs, which he is really good to do.

All in all he is a wonderful chap ready for his next best friend. He is advertised for a fraction of his worth to find the best home. Would love to keep in touch with his new owner as he is very much loved

Lovely Irish Sports Mare For Sale – Annie

Annie is a beautiful 8-year-old Irish Sports Mare with a kind, genuine nature and a lovely temperament. She is a pleasure to have around the yard and is easy to handle in every way.

She works nicely on the flat and has a bold, willing jump, making her a fun and capable ride. Annie enjoys her work and always tries her best, making her suitable for someone looking for a genuine horse to enjoy.

She is good to catch, groom, tack up, load and travel, and is well-mannered both in and out of the stable. Annie is also good to shoe and clip. Annie is a sweet mare who loves attention and is easy to deal with day-to-day.

We bought Annie when our daughter Lois moved on from her first pony. As Annie is a more talented and capable horse, Lois found it difficult to build her confidence and therefore hasn’t been able to enjoy her as much as we had hoped.

Sadly, this is the reason Annie is looking for a new home where she can continue to be loved and enjoyed.

We are keen for her to go to a kind, knowledgeable home.

Annie - 15.2, 5 year old (2021) Irish cob mare.

Annie is the epitome of a supercob, she has so much to offer and is such a lovely kind soul that only aims to please.

Backed and ridden away last summer and mainly hacked. Annie was imported from Ireland in November from the breeder and is ready to go on to her next adventure.

3 good paces in the school and surprisingly naturally balanced for a horse of her age and type. A very comfortable canter and not big and bouncy. Hacks alone and in company, loves to box up and go for a hack to explore the countryside and pop a log in the woods. She’s a lovely forward thinking brave sort that wants to do the right thing.

Just started popping a few fences she has a lovely jump and is really honest.

She really would go on and do a variety of jobs whether that be exploring the countryside, fun rides, riding club, hunting. World is your oyster.

She has been a real pleasure to have and I ride her last every day so that I always end the day on a good note with a smile on my face! She is still learning so wouldn’t suit any very novice riders.

Good to catch, bath, load, groom, tack up. Clipped for the first time recently and was a bit worried at first but then started to enjoy the scratchy bits so settled down and stood quietly. Did have a set of shoes on but is now barefoot as she really didn’t need them her feet are solid. She thought the farrier was a bit scary but again, just young and needs reassurance.

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.

Photos and videos available upon request.

If you are genuinely interested please CALL me, as text messages and email cant always be replied to straight away.

Skye
15.2 on the sticking 3yro ID x ISH filly, Skye has it all the looks, the movement and the temperament!.

Direct out of Dunbeggan grey mist and dam side goes back to coevers diamond boy so she's sure to go on into any sport.

Skye really is the most affectionate filly she's the type to follow you around and fall asleep while grooming.

I feel she would break in easily as she's beyond adorable to do anything with.

Definitely a ladies event horse in the making, but equally would go on to show or just dressage alone.

We put a fence up and she came straight to it so she shows promise to make a fabulous horse for someone to play with this summer.

Skye has good confirmation and a straight mover, no lumps or bumps. No vices.

Open to vetting.

Albie – Fun Allrounder for Confident Teen / Small Adult

15.1hh rising 9-year-old Irish Sports Horse gelding looking for a confident rider to enjoy him.

Albie was recently purchased, passing a 5 stage vetting, for an 11-year-old rider but has proved to be a little too cheeky for a younger child. He is a kind horse with a sweet nature but can occasionally be a little nappy, so he is best suited to a confident teenager or small adult who will ride him positively.

Previously he has been regularly ridden and jumped by a 17-year-old, where he proved to be a fun and enthusiastic ride when handled with confidence.

He is not a complicated ride, just a horse who enjoys his work and benefits from a rider who will ride him forward and enjoy a bit of personality.

Albie would suit someone looking for a fun all-rounder, Pony Club or riding club type to enjoy hacking, schooling and jumping.
