  • Tom — 15hh, 13yo Connemara Gelding
  • An absolutely cracking, genuine and fun all-rounder
  • The sort that is very hard to find

Tom is an absolutely cracking, genuine and fun all-rounder — the sort that is very hard to find. He truly is as close to a unicorn as you’ll come across.

An experienced pony with miles under his belt in all spheres, Tom would make a fantastic Pony Club or Riding Club partner, and would equally suit a working livery, college or riding school environment. He has competed successfully at numerous unaffiliated competitions and takes everything in his stride.

On the flat, Tom works nicely in the school with attractive, comfortable paces. He produces a flying change and is happy working both in a soft outline or on a looser contact. He has a lovely way of going and would look right at home in the hunter/jumper ring in the USA — an extremely cute and eye-catching type who also schools beautifully on the flat.

Tom thoroughly enjoys his jumping, both showjumping and cross-country. He is honest, bold and genuine, happily taking his rider to a fence without being spooky or sharp. He’s forgiving of a missed stride, looks after both himself and his rider, and gives confidence.

Out hacking, he is excellent in traffic and sensible to ride alone or in company, and super in open spaces.

He is also a lovely pony to have around the yard — affectionate, cuddly and kind, with excellent stable manners.

No vices.

  • Capable all-rounder

Gloria is an attractive mare with a nice stamp and good paces, offering a comfortable and enjoyable ride. She works nicely on the flat and is a pleasant horse for regular riding and schooling.

She has a nice jump and is capable over a fence, enjoying her jumping at home and in a relaxed setting. While she can be a bit inconsistent at times, she is happy popping round and is best suited to a rider who is understanding and not focused on competitive jumping.

Gloria particularly enjoys hacking and fun rides, where she is most relaxed and settled. She is happy out and about and would suit someone who enjoys getting out of the arena and making the most of their riding.

While she is capable, Gloria is not the most confident in a competitive environment, so she would be best suited to a home that focuses more on hacking, pleasure riding and low-pressure activities rather than regular competition.

A smart, capable mare who will suit someone looking for a versatile horse to enjoy in a more relaxed setting

Meet Barney your Big Friendly Giant waiting to be your new Best Friend
A striking 10 year old bay gelding, standing at 17hh.

Barney is a kind gentle horse looking for a new home due to owners circumstances changing, he has been in the same home since for 10 years and has been with me for the last 6 months.

He is very low mileage as previously led a very quiet life, since his time with me I have ridden him alone and in company, competed at dressage, hunter trials and Show Jumping and he has took everything in his big stride and learnt lots of new skills.

Due to his size and education he will need a competent rider to continue his education.

Barney is great to:
Catch
Load
Barefoot Trim
School
Hack
Jump

He will be sadly missed.
Please contact me directly for more information.

Brilliant out hunting, has been with adult and child. Never strong or silly and always in a snaffle. Has done sponsored rides. Much more of a kick along type of ride.

  • Irish Sports Horse

  • 7 years
  • 16.3 hands
  • A REAL HEAD-TURNER & A MUST SEE!

Bloodlines on the Sire's side are notorious for showing (Stradey) competing to HOYS level. The Dam side are notorious for jumping (zangersheide).

This horse will excel in any discipline. Backed professionally as a 3 yr old. She is quick to learn and showing great potential with her flat work and loves a jump. She has 3 great paces under saddle and is very forward going. This horse is good to handle from the ground and loves attention, she is looking for her forever-home. This horse has been bred and raised from a foal so full history known. A sad sale, but must go. A young family and work commitments means this horse is being wasted through no fault of her own.

Good to load & travel, good to shoe, catch from the field, clip, and she loves to hack. Produced on a dressage yard but bloodlines are notorious for jumping and showing.

Looking for a 5 Star home for this genuine, good natured horse, weather that is showing, competing, Riding Club or just hacking. She is extremely good for a young horse, but please no novices as she deserves to have her education continued correctly in order to fulfil her full potential. This horse has low milage but is ready to go out and do it all.

15hh 5 year old Stunning black gelding.

Paddy has all the looks and a super personality to match! He is a very kind natured horse who is always a pleasure to be around.

With me, paddy has competed unaffiliated dressage where he came 2nd with great comments from the judge. He was unfazed by the show chaos and remained super easy the entire show.

He has been to cross country schooling where he proved to be bold, popping over everything put in front of him and even trying out the water first time!

At home he is a gentleman in and out of the stable, he’s very friendly and loves a cuddle! He loves his hacking, alone and in company. Happy to lead others or be at the back of the ride.

He gets on well with other horses, happy to live in or out. Great to travel by himself or with others and good to shoe.

Paddy would suit a multitude of riders. He has been ridden by nervous and novice riders and will adapt himself to suit his rider.
Having said this, I would love for him to go into experienced hands where he can continue to get out and see the world!

Please call before messaging.

I challenge you to find him again!!
16hh, 5yo, Swedish draft gelding
No lumps , bumps , or blemishes - an outstanding weight carrying stamp with a massive yet very placid presence about him

Meet ‘Mufassa ‘ - the kindest, most down to earth gentleman around. He is extremely easy and low maintenance to own. Lives in or out, turns out alone or in a mixed herd. Perfect to catch, extremely mannerly to handle in all ways. Stands perfectly to be bathed, groomed , tacked up etc. Loads and travels on a trailer or lorry perfectly. He really is the perfect partner. Can be a little typical of these heavier horses with the farrier, nothing a little patience doesn’t conquer.

Musaffa is very obedient up and down the transitions in the arena. A nice leg in each corner but equally not the type to kick 64 times! Will pop a flying change a basic lateral work with a competent rider. Had recently been in a riding school for a few months where he’s been a huge asset to the string. Now looking for new home due to not having enough clientele for him. He was very much loved and valued by many there and comes with glowing references

Since being with us , we have enjoyed many hacks out with him. He is outstanding in all types of traffic and remains extremely mannerly in open spaces. He is the perfect nannying horse for our breakers! Will jump small logs , open and close gates , stands to be mounted etc

I really don’t think you’d find this type too commonly! Although not my usual type , I massively respect and appreciate what an absolute legend of a horse he is.

Open to any vet or viewing
Comes with his bridle and whole heap of references

Type you can pick up and drop, Not dead to the leg at all, but would suit a varied life doing a little bit of schooling, hacking, jumping and ultimately be someone's best friend .

Happy to ride on the buckle end or can work in a contact, does some lateral work too.

Totally home produced and was backed extremely slowly and not rushed at all with the future in mind!

Super happy to be around people, good to shoe, box, clip & respects electric fencing even if it isn't on! Happy to stay in the field on his own if taking others out.

Hacks alone and in company. Has hacked around the woods, been to arena hires and gone through water.

Same home since a 3yr old. Up to date with worming, dentist, physio and jabs.

Home is extremely important and very genuine reason for sale . Would not be suitable for a competitive home and would thrive in a quieter home. Loads of photos on request.

***********DEPOSIT TAKEN **********
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.

  • Bay
  • Mare
  • 5 years
  • 15.3 hands
  • Unbacked project horse
  • Lives out 24/7 or can part stable
  • Lives with mares and geldings

- Based at our Burford centre -

We are looking for a knowledgeable and experienced home for Nala, ideally with someone confident and experience in handling and producing Thoroughbreds. She is a big, sensitive youngster who will benefit from a calm, patient handler willing to continue building her education from the basics, everything from handling and picking up feet through to developing her groundwork before being backed.

Nala is very much at the early stages of her journey, so we are hoping to find someone who enjoys the process of bringing on a young horse and is happy to take things steadily while she continues to grow in confidence and understanding. With the right person, time and consistency, she has the potential to develop beautifully.

She would be best suited to someone and able to give her the time and routine she currently thrives on, particularly from a rehabilitation and retraining perspective. An ideal home would offer a balanced routine of part stabling and turnout with other horses, where she can continue to settle and progress.

Roi de B’Neville (known as Neville around the yard) is a one in a million horse, reluctantly offered for loan (or possibly loan with view to buy) due to owner illness. He has been in the family for almost 10 years and has been an absolute pleasure to own.

Prior to current ownership he competed up to BE intermediate, and would still happily event at a lower level (given his age), or could easily turn his hand to unaffiliated dressage, showjumping, or a quieter life. He is a very young 21 year old with lots of energy. Would suit a mother/daughter share as he adapts to his rider - he’s the horse on the yard that people always want to borrow!

Hacks alone or in company. No vices, though requires a relatively experienced rider as he can be strong at times.

Currently based in South Warwickshire. Preference for him to remain at current yard.

Comes with tack and rugs. Home is very important so references will be required.

Joey is a lovely 5-year-old Irish cob x thoroughbred gelding with a kind temperament and a genuine attitude to work. I’ve owned him since a yearling, so he has been carefully and correctly produced.

He was professionally broken and has since been brought on slowly, giving him a solid foundation. Joey has been to training shows, arena hires, lessons, and cross-country schooling, where he has always proved willing, sensible, and enjoyable to ride. He is still slightly green in the arena due to his age and experience, but is always genuine and eager to learn.

He hacks confidently alone and in company, is good in open spaces, and has been ridden in traffic. He is good for the vet and farrier and is currently shod in front.

Joey is a forward-thinking ride, so would suit a competent rider wanting a fun, genuine all-rounder to continue producing and enjoying.

A lovely young horse with a great brain and plenty of potential.

Lovely stamp, straight movement.

First time loose jumping today proving to be natural and athletic over a fence.

Ready for someone to bring on and turn into their own.

Totally untried, an exciting project for someone looking for a big quality horse at a realistic price.

The type that’s sure to do any discipline and make a fantastic all rounder.

100% sound, no lumps, bumps, sarcoids etc.

The sort that’s worth double once broken in.

Not for a novice as needs bringing back in to work, but kind and willing,

He has been turned away for winter, I was hoping to bring him back into work, but he is now very reluctantly for sale due to my change in circumstance ( work/hours)

He is not in any work at the moment
he is occasionally being lunged or long reined, but needs a consistent routine to bring him back into proper work, which unfortunately I do not have the time to give him.

He is sound no lumps , or bumps, blemishes or vices, moves straight, good to do , handle, lead, box, farrier etc, lovely lad to work with listens to your voice and tone

I do not want to part with him, I think a lot of this lad, but my present circumstances are making it impossible for me to bring him back into work.
