Very smart 15.3hh chestnut gelding 8 years old reg SHB (GB) excellent breeding by the excellent coloured WB stallion Amour.

We have had Vippy for 3 years and have brought him on slowly and sympathetically. He has been a mother daughter share between myself (Mum) and my now 15 years old daughter. During that time we have both enjoyed hacking him across fields, bridleways, through rivers which he loves doing.

An ideal would be a young adult as he takes confidence from his rider.to produce him to his full potential Or even a happy hack as this is his happy place .

He is schooled by a professional rider weekly and his price will increase the more work that is done with him.

My daughter loves her dressage so this is what we have focused on with him and he has done weekly
dressage lesson with our trainer.

My daughter has competed him at a number of unaffiliated dressage competitions/venures and he obtained mid 60 scores. He has super movement and lots of potential to progress with his Dressage and go affiliated.

He has done a bit of low level jumping with us but jumping isn our thing so we havent focused on it , with the right person he could over time do this .

He is good to clip, shoe, stable etc and turns out with others in a mixed herd.

This is a sad sale for us but our daughter is off to college soon and decided she will not have the time to take him with her sadly.

He is up to date with back, teeth, vaccinations, worming etc.

He is completely sound and healthy no previous injury’s.

I would also be willing to do a swap for a school master for myself.

Looking for a super home who will realise this stunning horses full potential with a competent rider.

  • Mannerly Hunter

Bear is a traditional stamp of an Irish Draught, with plenty of bone and substance and a trainable temperament.

He stands at approximately 16.2hh and is rising 7 years old.

A proper weight-carrying heavyweight — like an armchair to ride. As wide as he is tall, with a good solid leg on each corner.

He has hunted this season with us. He is a total gent at home and very easy to do, with absolutely no vices.

Super step with a great jump. He can be trialled out hunting for a fee.

Bear has been a very reliable hunter hireling this season, giving many people a great day’s hunting.

As a youngster, Bear was also lightly shown in hand with great success, including Champion Irish Draught at the Aintree National Show, winner of the 3-year-old youngstock class at the NW Irish Draught Show, gaining his qualification for the Moorbenhall Youngstock Final at the IDHS (GB) breed show, where he placed third.

Sadly re-available as too gentle to cope with over zealous Shetland pack leader!!

Holstein x BWB. First to view did buy this lovely chap, hoping for a repeat performance!

Exceptionally well bred & low mileage.

Sad sale as we simply love this horse but with ‘Taylor’s’ jockey on a gap year before uni, it’s time to find him his next loving home.

Well mannered & confidence giving, he’s perfect for someone looking to step up to horses or alternatively wanting to step down to something safer but still fun. He is light in the mouth & responsive to the aids.

Taylor has done a bit of everything between my son & daughter (18 & 14) over the last two years inc camps & eventing clinics at Somerford & Greenlands EC, PC & NSEA - qualifying for national champs with new 12yr old rider.

He loves XC (Badminton grassroots prospect).
Bred to jump (I’m told his half sister won European gold league) yet we’ve only asked up to 90cm of him out & up to 1m15 at home.
He’s even done some archery - my son’s favoured discipline.

100% barefoot, good with farrier, vet, clip etc.
Does not weave or wind suck & is a dream to load (box or trailer).
Is not spooky & has never been known to spin or bolt. Does not buck, rear, kick or bite.

He prefers company in the field and is equally content with mares or geldings.

He really is the best of horses to handle & hack out. Not a nasty bone in his body & never had a day off sick/ unsound. Full history known. No medical issues but will only go somewhere with access to adequate year round turnout. Likes a stable at night.

Pls call Natalya on 07880804719 if interested.

Patrick is a genuinely unspoilt, 3 rising 4 year old gelding with a wonderful temperament. He is a true “dope on a rope” to lead and handle, and a pleasure to have on the yard. He is currently measuring at 15.3hh and has 10.5” of bone.

He happily lives in or out, and turns out sensibly with both mares and geldings. Patrick has loaded and travelled on a wagon several times without issue, and has been walked out in traffic and seen farm machinery.

Patrick is unbroken, ready for someone to produce their own way. He has a willing nature and steady outlook on life. With his temperament, he could excel as a future allrounder, safe hack, hunter, or even a therapy/RDA type with the right training. He’s a total blank canvas ready for someone to bring out his full potential.

A super friendly, easy going cob who will be a lovely project for someone wanting a genuine youngster with a bright future ahead. Cobs of this size, stamp and nature are increasingly hard to find. Patrick combines height, bone and presence with an exceptionally kind, easy going outlook.

Photos don’t quite capture him, and you’ll need to look past the winter woollies, but he’s going to mature into a seriously smart cob.

DYLASAU AMAZING ACE - Approx 16.3, 5yo (2020), full ID gelding (Great Grandsire Flagmount King).

This gorgeous big guy is an absolute labrador to be around and handle, he just loves fuss and his 'humans'.

He is a big, quality type. A very solid build with a leg in each corner. That said he is athletic and a forward thinking horse to ride.
Ace was bought as a foal and his owner has done a super job bringing him up. He is mannerly yet inquisitive. He is only recently under saddle with us and is hacking out very well and goes greenly around the arena. He is light on his feet for his size (regularly offering a snazzy medium trot!).

Although he is an absolute Teddy bear, and is really taking to ridden life with ears pricked and a game attitude, he is generally forward off the leg and can have very normal baby moments so IS NOT currently suitable for a novice.

Would love to pop a pair of shoes on, and clip him out, but he is potentially going for a little break if not sold - so come and meet Mr Fluffy!
He has loose jumped, showing nice athletic ability, and he took himself down the line both ways unaided - he is fairly bold 

We backed his mother some years ago and she was fairly spicy to begin with but turned into a fantastic hunter - he is fairly similar with 'nicer' spice!

He has the potential to be an absolute 'Jack of all trades', RC/ showing/ grassroots across all disciplines, hunting etc. A absolutely lovely family horse, but he is still learning and needs competent/ an experienced home to solidify good basics into this fantastic horse to ensure a great future and longevity.
In a years time he's the ultimate unicorn amateurs search for.

For sale on behalf of his owner who will be very sad to see him go. A good home a priority.

Open to viewings, trainers and vettings.

Rosie – Fabulous All-Rounder. Approx. 14'3/15h mare. Perfect Mum & Child Share

Rosie is a lovely, genuine mare who makes a fantastic mum and child share.

She joined us over the summer, when my daughter has gradually brought her back into work, enjoying fun rides, farm rides, and hacking.

She has previously had a minor suspensory injury, however this has caused us no issues at all since owning her (with us since March 2025). She is sound, well, and absolutely loving life.

Rosie can be a little fizzy, but she is very kind-natured, genuine, and a pleasure to have around. I am a novice rider, and she has given me real confidence both in the arena and out hacking.

She enjoys show jumping and has jumped competently up to 85cm at local shows. With further time and consistency, she is certainly capable of more.
Good for the farrier
Good to clip
Happy living in or out
Hacks alone or in company

She is not a first horse, as she can be fizzy.

This is a very sad sale, only due to needing to raise funds for our other poorly horse. Rosie is much loved and will only go to a 5 star home.

Good home more important than price, so negotiable on price.

16.3hh grey Sport Horse gelding with a kind, genuine nature and lovely, expressive paces. He’s an athletic, smart horse with a balanced way of going and would suit someone wanting a nice horse to enjoy schooling, hacking and general all-round riding.

He has previously done some showjumping and is straightforward to ride in the school.

He’s forward going but sensible, never bucked, reared or done anything nasty, and always tries to please.
He’s happiest with routine and regular work and responds well to a calm, straightforward ride.

He hacks out and is settled and relaxed in familiar places.
He prefers hacking out in company and is comfortable in any position within the group.

On the ground he’s easy to do in all ways and a pleasure to have around.
He can be turned out on his own (with other horses nearby) or with company and is currently turned out with another gelding.

He’s good to clip, good for the farrier and is shod in front only.
Loading hasn’t been needed during my ownership but there are no known issues.

He’s well liked on the yard and is ridden by different riders.
He’s been kind and genuine throughout my ownership and will be missed.

He was recently vetted, which noted a small tail melanoma, an old superficial scar to the left fore and slight thickening of the inferior check ligament. These were all found to be cold, non-painful and of no clinical significance, and the vet confirmed they don’t affect his suitability for hacking or pleasure riding.
He’s remained sound with no skin issues.

This is a genuine sale due to a change in my circumstances.
I bought him without viewing or trying first and, while he’s been nothing but kind and willing, I’ve realised I’d prefer something a little quieter.

He’d suit a competent rider looking for a nice, straightforward horse to enjoy regular riding, schooling and hacking.

Classy, 2011 Warmblood bay gelding standing at 17.2HH. This chap has been there, done it and got 7 T-shirts.

A seasoned hunter who will cross any country, as scopey and as brave as they come, an expert over a hedge, rail or ditch, he’s hunt fit, has been out all season.

Aladdin previously did showing in his younger days, he then got a field blemish on his hind fetlock meaning he then went on to do riding club, showjumping, XC and hunting.

He is schooled to perfection with extremely comfortable paces, and would easily do a dressage job, he’s very safe, rideable and uncomplicated. He’s a chilled out and laid back type, will hack all day on his own or with others on the buckle, just a complete gentleman, even in the most heavy of traffic.

Aladdin is a kind horse on the ground, mannerly to handle and do. He will jump the moon and gives you 10 out of 10 every time. Not just a seasoned hunter but a brilliant allrounder.

Kahlua (Lu) is a very sweet and cuddly mare.
Out of Philanderer II who evented to 5*, grand sire Jumbo.

Would probably suit a home doing low level competing, pony/riding club, or happy hacker

- Hacks alone and in company (prefers to be behind with another horse but will lead with a persistent/strong rider)
- Bold to hack, perfect with traffic etc
- Well behaved on the gallops and open spaces
- Snaffle mouthed for everything
- Good to shoe with patience, clip, tack up, groom, load, physio, and for vets
- Can be fiddly to stud up - needs someone to hold while one studs as she isn’t to stand still and wait about

She has been through a phase of not loading however has been loading consistently for the past year.

She has pads on her front feet as a previous farrier had crushed her heels. She is now nearly back to normal purely due to farrier work and I have been told taking them off could be in the near future with her.

I bought her as a rising 5 y/o with the intent to event her. Unfortunately we soon discovered some issues with her - in 2021/22 we investigated and found OCD in her right stifle which has now been sorted via key-hole surgery. She has had both stifles previously injected just after surgery during her rehab process in 2022/23 and we (me and my vet) haven’t deemed another injection necessary.

We took rehab very slowly with Lu as she can get overwhelmed. Not a novice ride as can put in a good bronk/buck on occasion (no malice). When I bought her she had just been backed so overall she’s been brought on slowly and low mileage. Dressage at prelim consistently scoring 65-70%. She has had a lot of cross country training however haven’t had the opportunity to get out competing properly due to last summers ground situation and I am precious about her legs! She has done two clear round style competitions cross country and was good as gold (placing in her first one) and a few combined trainings where we have placed.

Still finds her canter work on the flat a bit more difficult but constantly improving - scores 6/7 in her dressage.

Only selling as I am currently at uni and unfortunately have found I don’t have the time and energy she deserves.

Plenty of videos and pictures are available on request

Price could be negotiable for the right home

Full Irish Draught Standing at approx 16.2 hh, 5 years. Breeding - by Devils Punchbowl (Crannagh Hero) out of a Westmeathe Lad Dam.

Red has been professionally backed and bought on slowly, trained using natural horsemanship methods. Time and care has been taken to give him the best possible start in his ridden life.

Red now needs a kind experienced person to take him out and see the world - not a nervous nelly like me! He is being sold from the field so please don’t expect to come and try riding him. His new person Must have experience with large, green horses.

- Groundwork: Red has done lots of natural horsemanship groundwork, flag training and been walked out in hand both alone and in company. He has started some in hand lateral work. He has been introduced to traffic.

- Ridden: Red can walk, trot and canter in the arena and is calm doing this also in an open grass field. He has done plenty of pole work including some raised poles. He has started some lateral work under saddle.

- Isn’t the type that needs riding every day. You can very much pick up and put him down. He is snaffle mouthed at all times. He is so easy to tack up it is like tacking up grandmas horse!

- Lives in or out. Hardy Irish type and goes out happily in all weathers.

- Barefoot, good Irish feet. Up to date with vaccinations and dentist. No health issues. Had two minor sarcoids removed 18 months ago and no return.

- Contact me for extensive video and a chat. May consider LWVTB for the right person.
