Pearl is low mileage, she has been a happy hacker on a family farm for the last year and just started schooling work which she has taken in her stride. She is a very exciting project!

Pearl is a sweetheart on the ground and ridden. Great to hack both in company and alone. Good even on open ground and with more of the basics on the flat she will be Riding Club capable.

Fantastic stamp of a horse. Sound as a pound and I would trust her being handled by a kid. Has superb movement and honest and keen jumper, just green, potential for more with the right person.

She has no vices in or out of the stable, and turns out in a mixed herd with no issues. She has just had her teeth and feet done and all good. She’s a pleasure to have on the yard and enjoys attention. She is not mare-ish in any way. Snaffle mouthed.

Can sort transport as well :)

Chief 16.1hh - Lovely stamp with a superb presence. 8 year old, bay ex racehorse

Absolutely beautiful in every way, movement , looks and temperament this gentleman has it all!

Hacks out alone or in company, happy to lead or go behind. Perfect lead horse just gets on with his job! Forward but safe, can have a jig jog.

3 balanced paces, and works beautifully, really floaty and so effortless! Would excel in a dressage arena.

Raced over jumps, and LOVES his jumping, is very bold with a very willing fantastic attitude , nothing fazed him, fillers , water trays , planks , super bold and careful will get you out of any situation.

Been to arena hires, and behaved impeccably going round a course of 90cms even at a trot, very scopey, bit green around a course but a very quick learner and never refuses. very careful over poles.

Would suit an ambitious amateur or competent teenager looking to do more, chief just wants to be ridden and enjoy himself, he needs a job and happiest when out and about.

Very bold! And so professional, bombproof in the heaviest of traffic! Crosses A roads, cars and trailers not an issue, perfect with farm machinery working right next to the arena

Good in open fields; will walk, trot or canter whatever you ask him to do. Go in front or behind.

a really fun horse with heaps of potential

a lot of fun and very eye catching

Chief is ready for his first dressage test and booked in for his first xc,
He has also been hunting, stood at the meet, perfectly well behaved to have a drink, a little impatient when you get going and just wants to keep his feet moving, not a ready made hunter but would come in time. He did hunt in a snaffle and a flash noseband. He wants a home he can go out and do a bit of everything, jumping, dressage, XC, the lot! He loves it all!

Please note he isn’t a novice ride, he is always safe, but does have a jigjog, always snaffle mouthed but needs an experienced/confident rider who enjoys a horse that wants to work and have fun, he is quite a sensitive ride, he doesn’t want someone that’s got heavy hands or heavy on the leg, he is willing to please.

Can be seen to windsuck in the stable which is reflected in his price. Never bites or kicks or pulls a face, he is a very friendly person, no injuries, this horse is wanted for nothing, he is very well loved.

May is a 10 year old 16.1 Dutch Warmblood.

She has previously competed BS up-to newcomers however now I think that she would be much happier at lower level jumping.

She would also excel at dressage as she won on her dressage daube and has placed every outing since with scores of 70+%. I feel that she could go far with this in the right hands as she is a stunning mover and the judges love her.

With fantastic confirmation she could also perform in the show ring, as is a pleasure to handle in hand.

She hacks out alone or in company and not bothered by busy traffic.

May can be a sensitive horse to ride and this can lead to her being sharp and spooky. She isn’t a novice ride especially to jump however having a confident jockey will bring out the very best in her.

No novices

Gracie - 15.2, 6 year old ISH mare (no breeding recorded).

Smart looking little mare, a lovely old fashioned small hunter type with plenty of bone and a leg in each corner.

Sweet mare that tries very hard to please.

Gracie hacks alone and in company, is good in open spaces and not strong or silly.

Been out to arena hires and is good to take out and about, pops a small course of fences with fillers, been XC schooling a couple of times and was very honest jumping everything no questions asked. Still a little green jumping but really genuine. She’s not a world beater but just a really nice low level allrounder that’ll give anything a go. Ideal for riding club home for clinics/sj/dressage/fun rides/pub rides etc.

Happily works in arena and would do a nice little test with a bit more fine tuning.

Easy to have around, a kind sort and not mareish, turns out alone or with others, recently had teeth done and passed 5 stage vetting before import.

Good to load/travel/shoe. Can be a little wimpy on the ground, well mannered and easy but just wants a nice kind owner no one bullish or heavy handed please. Enjoys a fuss and a groom. Realistic enquiries only, still only a 6 year old so not a schoolmistress just yet.

Very smart looking New Forest gelding looking for his new home, same home since he was 6 months old.

Mars has been professionally backed over the past few weeks and is happily hacking out in company. He has seen lots of traffic, cantered out in open spaces and is showing a great attitude to work. We would happily put confident children on him already.

Great to handle on the ground, good to catch, with farrier, to load, bath, stable etc.

Mars has been in hand showing earlier in the year proving very sensible, and coming away with a placing!

  • Natural athletic jump and plenty of scope

Meet Erol, a beautifully bred 7 year old. By the sought-after Party Trick, Erol is now ready to find his perfect partner.

Erol is the friendliest horse on the yard - he adores cuddles, attention, and is very easy to handle. (I have numerous photos of me sitting next to him when he's lying down!) I've owned him since he was a 2 year old, and he’s been slowly and carefully produced with his future in mind.

He has three lovely paces and moves beautifully, showing lots of potential as a dressage horse. He has competed in unaffiliated dressage with consistently pleasing results and positive comments from judges and has so much more to give!

Erol has also been showjump training and to unaffiliated SJ competitions, showing a natural athletic jump and plenty of scope. He’s still green so needs someone who has the time to tale him out and about which sadly I do not have.

He is good to:
- hack
- on the road
- load and travel in a trailer or lorry
- farrier
- clip
- catch
He’s happy to live in or out and has done both with us

Sadly, due to a young baby and a shift in priorities, I no longer have the time he deserves. He would thrive with a knowledgeable and kind rider who can take him out and continue his education.

This is a genuinely lovely horse with heaps of potential, and it’s a heartbreaking decision.

Super sweet happy hacker

  • Grey
  • Gelding

  • 16.3 hands
  • Very kind temperament
  • Great hack
  • Loves nothing more then being pampered

Looking for a new FOREVER home.
Frankie (Land Bank) 16.3hh 17 years young.

I will be incredibly particular as to where Frankie goes, a 5 star home is a must and references gratefully accepted, he is the kindest and most sweet natured horse who deserves nothing more than love and affection. I’ve owned him since 2016 but he has been out on loan for the last 4 years due to a change in my circumstances and wanting to find someone who would have the time to give him the love care and attention he deserved and at the time I wasn't ready to completely let him go. Sadly the elderly lady who had him battled with illness and has since passed away so he has since come back to me.

I’ve had Frankie back for just over a month now and due to his previous loaners sad circumstances he wasn’t in the best of condition when he arrived back with me so I have been slowly getting him back into work and feeding him the correct food and he is already looking much better and getting back on track. I have had Frankie for the purpose of hacking and low level flat work/showing we have competed in ROR classes in hand and ridden always had a wonderful day out and if we got a rosette it was a bonus! I have not jumped him as it never interested me nor am I confident so I don’t wish for him to start this now. I would ideally like to find a home in the South West so I can stay in contact with his new home and receive updates and possibly visit from time to time.

Frankie will come with a full and extensive wardrobe of freshly washed and re proofed rugs with detachable necks (pretty much every weight combo) stable rugs/sheets, fly rug, fly masks, black English leather saddle/ Merino wool Half Lined GP Numnah, grackle bridle with a Neue Schule snaffle + More. I never skimped out on his attire so they are good quality and well looked after.

The good bits - Frankie is an absolute sweetheart he loves nothing more then being pampered and will stand being fussed for hours, he is good to ride never nasty or strong, snaffle mouthed, goes by himself or in company however you need to be competent as he still needs "riding" - it’s not a case of just sitting there like he’s a kick along cob and every horse could have a moment now and again. Good in traffic, he is great to shoe and since Covid he’s only been shoed on his fronts, when being clipped he basically falls asleep, having his teeth done never makes an issue of it, loads and travels fantastic in a trailer or lorry. No horse is truly bomb proof so I will not use that term but he’s pretty special and comes close and absolutely deserves the world. I have many people that would vouch for him and his gorgeous temperament. He’s low mileage for his age I’ve never pushed him and just enjoyed having a sweet horse to play around with, I wish circumstances were different and I could keep him forever but I have to be realistic.

The not so good bits - Frankie has a tendency to wind suck after food or being given treats over the stable door, likely to have been picked up during his time in racing. It’s never been an issue for me and has never worried anyone who I’ve been with at livery yards as it’s only minor. He has a slight splint on his near fore which has never caused any lameness. Frankie also has an enlarged thyroid - A Goiter, this is not uncommon in older horses and has caused no concerns.

This is a sad sale of a wonderful horse that I am just not in a position to keep.
£3000 with his whole wardrobe included. The perfect home is ABSOLUTELY essential I am in no rush to sell him and believe the right person will come along at the right time.

  • She also loves beach and pleasure rides

Pip is a truly wonderful just turned 18 year-old mare with low mileage for her age and a heart of gold. I’ve had the pleasure of owning her for nearly 10 years, and this is a very difficult, genuine sale due to personal circumstances.

She stands at approx. 15.3/16hh and is ridden in a snaffle with three lovely, forward paces. Flatwork isn’t her strongest area, but she tries hard and will improve with regular schooling. Pip loves to go out for a hack she’s confident and great in traffic, can be a bit more forward in a group but never silly.

Jumping is Pip’s passion – she’s competed successfully at 70–90cm and has scope to go higher. She’s bold and confident cross-country, and has also been out hunting – can be forward-going, but always safe and pulls up when asked. She also loves beach and pleasure rides.

On the ground, Pip has role model behaviour – she’s kind, calm, and easy to handle, stands for the vet, dentist, farrier, and physio. Pip is also great around dogs.

Pip would best suit a confident forward rider looking to enjoy low-level competition, hacking, or the odd day hunting.

Very sad and honest sale of a much-loved mare. Please, no time wasters – 5* home essential.

  • The most easiest and loveliest boy
This lovely boy has quite a remarkable story behind him.

Owned from a foal so full history known. He is the most easiest and loveliest boy, I just simply do not have a job for him and with my business growing I am struggling with space to keep him or give him any time at all.

He is backed, he has done light schooling and hacking, he is still green but never bucked reared or bolted.

He has proven to be very safe in the time he has been in work, but sadly I just don’t have the time with my jumpers taking the priority.

Offering him at a fraction of the price I’d like, but I really do want to find him somewhere where he has the attention and time he deserves. He doesn’t care if he’s out in the field living happily or dragged out for an occasional ride.

Please no time wasters I want a quick hassle free sale with the hope to buy him back if you ever needed to sell again. He is a very special boy to us.

Ava - 16hh, 4 year old registered Irish Draft mare full breeding recorded. By King Vinny (Welcome Diamond/Diamond Lad).

Where to start with this absolute superstar!

Ava is what alot of people are looking for. Easy going chilled out temperament, shrugs her shoulders at new things and just tries incredibly hard to please. An absolute pet on the ground she’s like a big dog and just wants to be loved. Probably the easiest young horse we’ve ever had.

Superb mover, plenty of jump if wanted.

Hacks alone or in company and is good in traffic. Good in open spaces and doesn’t hot up.

Done plenty of hacking, small bit of XC schooling and been out to arena hires where she was very easy. Starting to string a few fences together and is very honest.

Green on the flat as to be expected for a horse of her age/size as she hasn’t been hammered round in circles, but she’s starting to learn about working into a contact and is picking things up quickly. She is a really flashy mover and would put some dressage bred horses to shame! More of a leg on ride but not a total kick along.

She really would go on and do any job, or she’d just as happily plod round the block a few times a week.

Good to catch/load/shoe/groom (her favourite thing!)/wash off.

A very kind mare who is a pleasure to have around, a real best friend. She’d be a really nice one if you’re looking to bring on your first young horse.

Fifi is a super sweet, kind mare with a lovely temperament, who is trainable and loves her work.

Excellent mix of Warmblood quality and Irish attitude. She’s by Womanizer (heartbreaker) out of a Maximum Clearance mare.

She has 3 lovely balanced paces & has the potential to do a smart smart test with some more training. Has a soft snaffle mouth at all times and a trainable temperament. Nicely forward from the leg but not hot / sharp at all.

Has a great natural jump. Not a spooky horse and has great potential to be a very consistent amateur / teenagers competition horse.

She’s very smart and oozes quality.

Very reasonably priced as she has a couple of small sarcoids in her front armpit & has had a small one removed from the outside of the same leg. Have never caused an issue. She will be a steal for someone as she’s advertised at half her value.

As a team we REALLY like this little mare who has all the potential to be a real quality versatile all rounder.

Hacks very well in company on / off road and we have hacked her (today) on her own and she was good as gold.

Tornado is the most fun horse with the biggest personality. He absolutely loves life , loves work and is looking for someone to match his enthusiasm.

Tornado is an incredibly impressive horse , he gets comments everywhere he goes. He's naturally uphill and works beautifully on the flat. He's been to unaffiliated dressage with good scores and promising comments. He's naturally balanced and has cadence in abundance.

He has been to jumping clinics and lessons as well as arena cross country. Tornado loves to jump. He's super brave to a fence - doesn't look at fillers etc. His enthusiasm to a fence is unmatched and he always takes you to the jump , will jump off any stride.

Hacks alone or in company - good in traffic but needs a bit of support passing the big stuff.

Good in open spaces. Loves the beach and LOVES water. I've never met a horse quite like it with his love for water.

Tornado has had an easy life - growing up in the hills of wales and has been in the same low level home since he was 5. Mainly hacking and clinics but in the last year has increased his schooling and jumping and is absolutely thriving.

Tornado is not suitable for a novice, he's a big lad who knows his strength and can get strong , although we only ever ride him in a snaffle and if you stop pulling he stops but he would play on someone's nerves. (A novice could hack him in company)

A great horse to have on the yard - he's a real character and everyone loves him. This isn't at all an easy decision.

We have owned Penny for over 4 years and she has been a good horse for us during that time. She was bred in Ireland and was used briefly for hunting before being imported into England. During this period she sustained a minor injury to her right hind leg and during her recuperation period she was successfully put into foal. This incident has left a scar on her right hind leg but this does not affect her in any way.

Since being with us, she has been a great allrounder, she has done fun rides, dressage tests, showjumping and cross country. She has also competed up to 90cm eventing and showjumping with the pony club and attended club events such as camp and championships at Bicton.

Penny lives out 24/7 with our other companion horse on private land, but will happily go into a shelter/ stable when needed. There is a livery yard in close proximity to us, where we have use of their facilities, and Penny is always very interested in the activity there and would easily fit into a busier environment. She can be quite a dominant mare and would soon find her position in any group.

She is excellent with vets, farriers, physio, clipping and travelling. Penny is up to date with all vaccinations and has very good teeth and feet, she is currently shod on a 6 week cycle.

Penny has had time off from schooling and competing over the last 12 months due to difficulties but is now coming nicely back into work as a happy hacker. She does need an experienced and capable rider as she can be strong and can on occasion rear / buck. She is a brave horse but still needs to gain confidence from her rider. Penny will hack out solo or with other horses, but sometimes she will get excited and can misbehave when in company.

I have owned Spike since he was a four year old, he's been the best horse I have owned over the years and only thinking of finding him the perfect loan home as he moves into a quieter stage of his life and I have purchased another gelding who has a tendency to bully him and after all he has given me I would love him to find somewhere that has the time and facilities for him to enjoy life and to be enjoyed.

I have done some basic dressage tests on him and many sponsored rides, he is very sensible out at shows, he will turn out with any horse, mare or gelding, he loads well and is the perfect gentleman to handle on the ground.

I haven't had the time to ride him much for the last year so he would need a gradual fitness programme before being taken anywhere, or alternatively he would be perfect in a mother/daughter situation where you need a sensible lead horse or companion.

In the past he has suffered from sweet itch but that has gone now and he has had no other illnesses, he came to me with stiffness in his sacroilliac joint, he has had two injections which showed no improvement, this has never prevented him from doing anything, except perhaps better roundness and elevation in a dressage test in his younger days.

I am only mentioning it as I want to give full disclosure, I feel that he is now just showing the normal slight stiffness for a 21 year old who is not fit.

Irish Cob Allrounder


Ref #: 379888
  • Loves to be fussed
  • Done a bit of everything
£6,950
  • Irish
  • Bay
  • Gelding
  • 6 years
  • 15 hands
  • Loves to be fussed
  • Done a bit of everything
Price reduced as I’m struggling to keep him in full work. Sad sale of ‘Turbo’ due to having two young children and renovating a house, I unfortunately no longer have the time or energy to put into him.

He’s 6yo Irish Cob. I bought him over from Ireland as a 3 year old and have done a bit of everything with him since. He has done clinics, charity rides, Le Trec, beach rides, been on holiday, XC, pub rides and has hunted. I hack him both alone and in company on a busy main road and he has never been any trouble to load or travel.

He loves to be fussed and has a real personality but he is still green and needs the time and work put into him. For this reason he is not suitable for a novice or first horse.

He does dish with his front legs but it doesn’t affect him in any way, he just won’t be suitable for showing.

Please phone for more information. 07825812480

Must enjoy a varied life and be happy living on a friendly, active yard.

We're offering:
A loving, committed home with experienced support
Excellent facilities, fantastic hacking
A horse that will be truly part of the family (little sister is also ready & waiting to take up the reins!!)

We’re happy to travel within reason for the right horse.
