Bean
13year old 16,2

Lovely, honest horse who has done a bit of everything - hunting, schooling, hacking, and more. He is as genuine as they come and will happily turn his hoof to anything.

He has a fantastic temperament and is a real sweetheart on the ground. Loves being brushed and thrives on one-to-one attention.

Out riding, he is as close to bomb-proof as you'll find. Currently being ridden by a complete novice and never puts a foot wrong - very safe and sensible.

The only thing to note is he can take a little time to fully settle into a new home, but once he does, he is an absolute gem.

Absolutely beautiful 15hh 4yr old bay registered Connemara gelding by the showjumping stallion ‘Glencroft Go For Gold’ who has competed up to 1.20s and the dam sire Lightening Star x Castleside JJ Junior
Shami is the kindest boy, he’s a real sweetheart and loves people. He’s a sensitive soul who wants love and attention. He’s good to catch, load, handle, in and out the stable he’s totally clean legged and no vices.
Shami came over from Ireland last year where he was slowly and lightly started in a one to one home. He has done a handful of everything inc jumping and seen some logs etc, with bits of schooling and lots of hacking. He’s fab in traffic and goes out alone or in company.
He was turned away over the winter and he’s been back in work a few weeks proving just as easy and sensible as always.
He is beautifully put together, would make a top worker either plaited or M&M as quality for either or likewise he’d make a top class Allrounder/ riding club/ event type.
No novices as although he’s good, he’s young and we want the absolute best for him to further produce him correctly.
Up to date with dentist, farrier and vaccinations.

  • Armchair ride

Berry is a registered Shire mare standing at approximately 17.2hh. She is just the sweetest, kindest horse with a loving and kind temperament. She’s easy to catch, clip, bath, load & travel, and good for the farrier, with no stable vices.

Berry is only ever ridden in a snaffle. She will hack alone or in company, is good in traffic, and is totally unflappable. She is not frightened of articulated lorries, rattling trailers, motorbikes, push bikes, walkers, dogs, paper bags or scary flapping pheasants. She is also ok and very used to farm machinery & livestock.

Loves going down the pub and meeting new friends (especially if they happen to have some treats!!) standing quietly while you have a pint (or two) and will stand patiently while you try to get back on!

She will happily turn out in a herd or alone. She just settles right in and minds her own.

She has very good basic flatwork, with good upward and downward transitions, and is not at all a struggle to ride. Kick to go & pull to stop type ride. She loves having a jump and will take you to a fence and get you safely over the other side. When taken cross-country schooling, she happily popped around everything: ditches, water, timber, and small hedges.

We took her on a fun ride in April with the Staff College Drag Hounds, happily plodding along in her little snaffle on the end of the buckle with a novice lady rider. She was happy in a large group and, at no point, did she get silly or strong; she even jumped some of the bigger timber fences around Barossa.

Berry would be an asset to any mounted police force, RDA centre, riding school, or a lovely all-rounder family share. She really is a genuine confidence giver.

Laid back Registered Clydesdale mare.

A kind, gentle big soul that has been here on the farm with us since a 4yo.

She was backed and ridden away as a 4yo then turned out used as a nanny companion in field to the youngsters.

She is extremely sweet and naturally quiet, well mannered and loves attention. Is good for the farrier, dentist, to trim/ bath, leads in off the quad & is bombproof in traffic.

Lives in or out with mares or geldings and is generally a pleasure to have around.

She’s been back in work this last week, walking and trotting up the lanes.

She’s genuine, needs educating but naturally very quiet and easy.

With mileage Jenny would make a great weight carrying type for a riding school/ trekking center, a family hack or broodmare

Reflected in her price - she does have a few small sarcoids on her chest and under her back legs , these are no where near tack so will not effect her in anyway riding

After fun filled 5 years together it is time for Clover to find a new home, as I wish to do more jumping (specifically XC) and she would now prefer a life with hacking as her main activity.

Clover has been well schooled, responsive to the leg and a forward going mare. She will happily canter out hacking (and come back nicely when asked) or walk along on the buckle. She will hack alone or in company and go first or last.

Clover is a dream to hack. For the last 5yrs she has lived on a working farm and takes it all in her stride; past livestock, farm machinery, on roads, fording rivers and even over the tarpaulin! She will happily hack with dogs and will even give a lift to the little ones when their little legs can’t keep up!

She is good to load, clip and is the farrier's favourite horse to shoe. She can be a little grumpy in the stable, as she sees it as her private bedroom. She is up to date with vaccines and has had regular check ups with the dentist, saddler and back lady.

Currently stabled at night and out with a small herd of mares in the day. In 5 days a week work, so ready to hack all summer long.

April Belle, 15.1 11yo Appaloosa mare. Belle is a real sweetie, already a yard favourite, never marish very gentle and easy to do in all ways - clip, farrier, turnout/catch, load & travel, bath, groom.

She’s been out and about with a teenage girl doing NSEA, PC, SJ, XC activities. She is a forward ride and absolutely loves to jump. She will drop into a nice outline and would do a good test also. Belle hacks out alone and in company (can need encouragement leaving the yard on her own but once out is fine) and is good in traffic and open spaces.

Belle is perfect mother/daughter share, PC, RC, all rounder, low level eventer. Due to her being a forward ride wouldn’t suit someone nervous.

Very sadly for sale due to health reasons, so she is available with all her wardrobe - saddle, bridle & rugs. Seen on sales livery lingfield Surrey

12-year-old, 16.1hh Thoroughbred cross mare looking for a kind, loving home to enjoy a varied all-round lifestyle.

I’ve owned her for almost 6 years (since I was 13). We’ve done a bit of everything together including pony club, NSEA, riding club and many clinics.

She’s a genuine and well-schooled mare with three balanced, level paces. She is happily jumping 80-90cm courses with a neat technique and alway wanting to please.

She is snaffle mouthed and responsive. Hacks alone and in company. Easy to handle with good manners on the ground. Good to shoe, catch, load and travel.

She would suit a rider wanting to hack, compete low level or do pony club/riding club with.

Lots of photos and videos available.

This is a very sad sale of a much loved mare, so a 5* home is essential.

Mercedes is a very easy going horse who’s ready for someone to put their own stamp on.

Always snaffle mouthed with lovely paces. Ideal to produce further for any discipline.

We backed her last year and went to a couple of clear round shows where she proved to be very straightforward and not phased by any fillers etc.

She’s great to load and stands perfectly on the lorry. She’s had a winter holiday and now back in work looking for a loving new home.

Good to hack and ride round the fields never strong or silly in open spaces. Although she’s a chestnut mare she is the loveliest horse to be around and never mareish in any way.

Good to catch,trim,clip etc. no vices. Been out with mares and geldings and is never an issue.

Bailey is a 9 year old 16hh gelding eligible for ROR. (Baileys Prayer (FR))
I have owned Bailey since he was 3 years old. I purchased him straight off the track.

Bailey has a very sweet personality like a big puppy so would suit someone that could give him lots of love and cuddles as he is very affectionate. Bailey is clever so in order to keep him on his best behaviour, he should have an experienced assertive rider.
Bailey has only been brought back into work recently (4-5 weeks) (I am pregnant and only recently found someone to ride him for me. Prior to this he had been on a break to correct some poor farriery work after returning from a loan home. His feet are back to normal now thankfully!). His fitness and schooling coming on well.

I unfortunately don’t have the time to keep Bailey as I have two competing horses already and a second child on the way.

Bailey has competed up to 90cm with me a few years ago, but Bailey would probably be better suited to a happy hacking or low level competing home. (Possibly some team chasing) We have popped a couple of jumps on Bailey now he is back in work and he is really enjoying that. He will go off a long or short stride and is super at correcting the strides for you coming into a fence!

Bailey absolutely loves to hack out and is a natural born explorer. He is bold and safe out hacking and will hack alone or in company.
Bailey is good to clip, shoe and loads onto trailers (not experienced with bigger lorries so may need some training on this).
Will only go to a 5* experienced home. Please contact me for further info, videos and pics.

Louie is a huge part of our family. I brought him 4 years ago as a green 6yo to produce then sell, but have struggled to come to terms with the selling part as he is so special to us. This will be an extremely honest advert with as much info as possible because his home is the most important decision for me to make.

Louie is the loveliest horse to have on the yard. He is playful, inquisitive and loves attention. He lives out 24/7 in summer but does mostly stable during the winter. He’s barefoot but great to trim/shoe so could be shod again. He’s great in the field but must see other horses. He has loaded/travelled on trailers upto HGV Lorries. He has never been an issue to load, even my non horsey mum will load & hold him. He’s great to bath, clip, catch, etc. He’s great with other horses and will stand on the lorry by himself whilst you take other horses away. My 4yo daughter leads him round, brushes him etc. He has no vices or allergies. He has never had the vet out for anything bar vaccinations. He does have a supplement but is otherwise a good doer. Lives out 24/7 in summer and in at night during the winter.

Louie has been produced as a showjumper for the last 4 years. He has competed at the blue chip championships, Aintree amateur finals and trailblazer finals with results. He has a record upto 1.05 with 613 points and 1.5k prize money (all since I purchased him). He does like to win and is a forward going ride. He does need a confident rider but equally he has never bucked, reared or bolted. He just loves his job. I competed Louie until I was 32 weeks pregnant with wins and still rode him on the flat until the day before I was due. I trust him completely! He’s already qualified for the 85cm & 95cm 2nd rounds 2026, The Ruby Final at the blue chip championships 2026 and Trailblazers 90cm final 2026!

Louie has 3 beautiful paces. He has taken part in a couple dressage tests for the riding club team events but this isn’t something I’m interested in. Although has nice flatwork and does his changes.

Louie loves to hack. He’s great in the heaviest of traffic. He will happily lead or slot in behind. He hacks alone or in company. He is also regularly ridden whilst leading my other horse whilst out hacking. He’s great in open spaces and loves a good canter. He’s been to the beach and behaved impeccably, loved going in the sea. Louie will stand patiently to do gates whilst still mounted. He might spook at a blowing plastic bag but will not spook at any traffic or day to day life.

Louie has been XC schooling a handful of times but this isn’t something I regularly do so he would need some training in this area. Although he loves going in/out of water and had a great time.

Louie is such fun to ride. He’s forward, keen and loves to get on with the job. He’s responsive so would not be suitable for a novice or nervous rider. But would definitely suit a teenager wanting a pony club/riding club all rounder. His home is by far my priority and I will be vetting potential viewers to ensure suitability before wasting either of our time. Only for sale as I don’t believe Louie is suitable for a pure showjumping home, he likes variety.

I have thousands of photos/videos of his whole journey. Northampton based. Nothing will be unsaid about his history. I know previous owners and his journey from the beginning.

Hollington Gem (Juliet) is a gorgeous rising 6yo shire mare standing at approx 18hh. Juliet was backed and ridden away last summer and then had the winter off through no fault of her own. Due to her owners health Juliet is now unfortunately looking for a new home.

She has been a dream to bring back into work and has never been silly, spooky or strong (her first day back she was being ridden bareback and bridless trotting round the arena!). Juliet has a very kind temperament and is great with other horses, she makes a perfect happy hacker and/or nannying horse for the babies to see the world. She waits patently for traffic and has been unphased by busses, flappy bags, dogs, motorbikes etc.

Juliet would be plenty safe enough for a novice rider, RDA or a non horses partner to tag along on rides etc. but she must go to a knowledgeable home that understand shire horse care due to her size and breed, and although she loves the odd canter through the fields out hacking, she shouldn’t be doing a massive amount of faster work or work in small arenas etc. in order to preserve her joints long term. Juliet is very respectful of humans on the ground too and is very good to lead & handle. I adore this mare and so does her owner so she will only be going to the best of homes - if I had the funds then I’d be keeping her for myself to enjoy!

Juliet passed a 2 stage vetting just over a year ago and is up to date with vaccinations, dentist, farrier etc.

Open to viewings & vettings (located NN12) but unfortunately no loans or trials etc.

Her sire is the stunning Class 1 Irish Draught stallion Ceide Prince and she is out of an Irish sports horse mare.

We have just backed her, she is hacking in company very confidently. Shes seen all types of traffic and farm animals and doesn’t bat an eye lid. Shes not spooky or in any way sharp. Easy and straight forward. Obviously she is green, if I hear ‘she is too green’ after a viewing I will explode. And no, she has not been in an arena

She has exceptional conformation, great feet, and THE BEST temperament. An old head on young shoulders, she is very laid back and easy to do.

This young horse is very special and will be someone’s horse of a life time. I think the world of this kind natured, gentle filly. Who ever gets to buy her is going to be incredibly lucky.

5-Year-Old Pure Irish Draught Gelding – 17.1hh – Quality Allrounder / Ideal Police Horse Type

Ted is a very smart 5-year-old pure Irish Draught gelding, standing at an impressive 17.1hh with plenty of bone, correct conformation, and excellent, strong feet.

He is a real yard favourite thanks to his outstanding temperament. Ted is completely vice-free and one of the most genuine, kind, and easy horses to deal with. He is exceptionally straightforward and uncomplicated in every way, making him a pleasure to have around.

On the ground, he is as easy as they come – good to catch, turnout, and handle, and happy living in or out, either alone or with company. He loads beautifully, travels well, and stands quietly wherever he is put. He is good to clip, shoe, and wash, and genuinely enjoys attention – a horse that loves a fuss and human interaction.

Under saddle, Ted has been given time to mature correctly and is now proving to be a very genuine, confidence-giving ride. He is a safe, sensible type who doesn’t look for trouble and is happy to just get on with his job. He hacks alone or in company, will go first or last, and has been excellent in all types of traffic. He has a very unflappable nature, taking everything in his stride without fuss, making him an ideal candidate for a variety of jobs.

In the school, he has a lovely willing attitude and always tries to please. He is more steady and sensible than sharp, making him easy to ride and produce. He improves with every ride and is showing a nice, trainable outlook. While still young, he has a very level-headed brain and is not complicated or tricky in any way.

He has recently started jumping and is already proving to be brave, honest, and willing, happily taking on new fences and showing plenty of scope for the future.

With his size, presence, and exceptional temperament, Ted has all the attributes to make a top-class allrounder, hunter, or an ideal police horse type. Horses with this kind of brain, attitude, and ease of handling are hard to find.

A genuine, quality young horse with a very bright future ahead and a temperament that makes him stand out from the crowd.

17.2hh 18yo warmblood x gelding. Has previously hunted including whipping in and in his youth been a masters horse. Also competed in dressage, showjumping, eventing, and pony club activities.

He is a big impressive looking horse who gets compliments everywhere he goes! He loves attention and will stand for hours for a pamper and a cuddle!

He is ridden by the whole family and is a horse that does not need riding everyday and will be the same after a week off.

He has three lovely paces on the flat.

He is now looking for a quieter life to enjoy hacking, training shows, hunter trials, a pamper, just a non competitive life!

He is fit and able to compete but i would rather him now go to someone that is going to enjoy his golden years.

He is good to shoe, load (will stand on the lorry for hours), is good on the ground, but needs some time and patience to clip without sedation.

He is brilliant in traffic and hacks alone or in company.

Please do not let his age put you off, he’s a spring chicken at heart!!

He is a big quality horse so please no novices as we want a 5* home for him.

Womble
16.2hh
Cob
Massive weight carrier
Kind, Calm, Loving Chap

Womble is an impressive 16.2hh weight carrying cob, with a loving temperament and calm disposition. He is easy to handle on the ground and under saddle and is always well mannered.

Womble was purchased at 3 years old, turned out to mature, then professional broken at 3 years 10 months he was then introduced to the riding school setting where he was ridden by staff and competent clientele, he was a quick learner and settled into this very busy environment without any problems, he participated in our group and private lessons, working on the flat, over poles and progressed quickly onto lateral work, small coloured and rustic fences, although still relatively green in the school, he was eager to learn, though new to poles and certain ridden exercises, he approaches each new task with a genuine willingness and calm disposition. He is not spooky, spiny, sharp, strong or reactive—just still developing his understanding. As a blank canvas, he offers the perfect opportunity for an independent rider to guide his progress and help shape his education. With time and consistency, he shows promise in working in a soft outline, he is developing good balance, lateral movement, and responsiveness to aids. He also continued to improve over small fence and log with quiet enthusiasm.

Womble hacks out confidently alone or in company and is entirely unfazed by the most challenging environments. He remains calm when faced with heavy traffic, including buses, tractors, lorries, and large agricultural machinery. He will wait patiently at roundabouts or traffic lights and never reacts with fear or tension. On open ground, he stays composed at all paces, whether leading, following, or riding solo. He never pulls, rushes, or attempts to overtake—even when returning home.

His exceptional manners extend to every aspect of handling. Womble is easy to catch, groom, bath, load, clip, and handle for the vet, dentist, and farrier. He currently lives barefoot but has previously been shod and is comfortable with either. He stands quietly for long periods without any restraint, happily enjoying being groomed and pampered. Children regularly lead and handle him without issue, and he will calmly stand at the mounting block until the rider is comfortably in the saddle.

More recently, he has begun to show a dislike for arena work. I believe this is largely due to the amount of schooling he has been asked to do, with very little variety. As a result, he has become a little stale and reluctant to go forward in the arena, unfortunately we have limited hacking facilities, so arena work is prominently where we ride, as we don’t have access to bridleways—only grass verges alongside roads or extremely busy roads. Initially we felt that focusing on arena schooling would be the best approach however in hindsight a variation would have been more beneficial.

Womble absolutely thrives when hacking out and continues to perform exceptionally well, even in heavy, fast-moving traffic. He takes busy and challenging road environments in his stride and continues to excel in these situations. I feel he would really benefit from a break from arena work. However, as we are a riding school, arena work is our 1st point of call.
Unfortunately Womble is not earning his keep, hence the reduced price.

Womble is a genuine confidence-giver who can be left unridden for weeks or even months and still be safe and consistent when brought back into work. He is incredibly low maintenance. He has never suffered from laminitis, sweet itch, sarcoids, or lameness, and has passed all annual riding school inspections with flying colours (equivalent to a Stage 2 vetting).

He currently lives out at night in a large mixed herd and stabled during the day but is equally content stabled or turned out full time, he is happy to be stabled / turned out solo, he is not clingy at all, he absolutely loves people and attention and adores a cuddle. He is quiet, independent, and never causes trouble in the field or stable. Being sold on behalf of a working livery.

Iva is a super smart 15’3hh bay 14yo standard bred mare. 

She is safe and sensible, and loves her hacking. We have done some light schooling and showjumping with Iva but it is not her forte. She’s happy to do it, but much prefers hacking then going around in circles. 

However having said that someone could put some work into her schooling and jumping and get a lovely allrounder. 

She has seen all types of traffic and has been solid as a rock on the roads, she’s great to go across fields and big open spaces. She will happily hack alone, or in company. She is snaffle mouthed and a really kind and genuine mare. 

Iva is up to date with everything, vaccinations, teeth, worming, shoes. Shes great to catch, shoe, box and travel. She did need sedation to clip over the winter but I feel over time she will be fine to do with someone patient. 

We are looking for a hacking home for Iva, or even an endurance home. 

She is suitable for most riders but no novice or nervous people, we want her to go to a someone half experienced for her own sake. 

She really deserves a great home where she will be loved forever. She will make someone very very happy.

Iva is with us on sales livery
