  • Experienced mother daughter share
  • Long term experienced, family home
  • 14.3hh to 16.1hh (give or take)
We are looking for our forever horse
To enjoyed a fun varied life of competing sj mainly but also ode, xc, arena eventing, riding club/pc and a little dressage but certainly doesn’t need to be a dressage diva. As well as great regular training.

Long hacks across the moors and woodland and down quiet lanes in company and alone. So must be fairly ok in quiet farm traffic.

May suit something older or younger with a nice attitude but nothing too bonkers please! We can managed quirks/ailments if we know about them.

In return for this lovely unicorn we can offer a forever, loving home where they will want for nothing with a lovely quiet teen rider to do all the fun bits and for experienced mum to hack and school. With possibly a bit of rc.

We have our own yard with lovely stables and grazing and they will join the rest of our ponies in whatever set up suits them. We can cater for most needs. Must travel well in a trailer mainly.

Healthy budget and will travel a few hours to view as we are based in the south west.
Ideally something privately owned.

Super fun, winning machine

Ref #: 371929
  • Unaffiliated pro- with wins from cross poles to 70 cm
  • Previously successful in the working hunter ring with wins and championships at BSPS level
  • Super pony to hack, clip, shoe.
  • A true allrounder.

  • Welsh Section C
  • Chestnut
  • Mare
  • 19 years
  • 11.3 hands
  • Unaffiliated pro- with wins from cross poles to 70 cm
  • Previously successful in the working hunter ring with wins and championships at BSPS level
  • Super pony to hack, clip, shoe.
  • A true allrounder.
Milly was bought by us just over a year ago as a fun pony for my daughter to compete in Cradle Stakes, unaffiliated sj and arena eventing. She has proved to be a great first competition pony.

She will trot the cross poles with my youngest daughter then turn up the speed and win with my older daughter. She has won unaffiliated with us at Aintree, Northcote and Morris equestrian and has also won lower level BSPS cradle stakes classes. She has competed at arena eventing with us and again won around 50cm and 60 cm classes.

We feel that Milly would be best suited to an established small jockey ready to go out and do unaffiliated sj/NSEA/trailblazers/ arena eventing/ pony club. She likes the fun things and enjoys an established jockey. She did a BSPS camp with us and went through the water, ditches , steps etc on cross country no problem and although she can be forward on the cross country she has brakes . She also very much seemed to know the score with games.

When we purchased Milly we were not informed that she had had laminitis in the past. We had her insulin levels checked and these were raised but she does not have Cushings. We have managed her by limiting her turnout to a couple of hours a day but we do not soak her hay.

This is an honest sale as due to my lucky children having other ponies and us doing mainly working hunter shows, Milly is not being enjoyed as much as she should be.

We are based in Cumbria. Please whats app for videos

Quiet Safe Happy Hacker.

Ref #: 372141

  • He is happy to do obstacles, has been over bridges, seesaws, through curtains etc

  • Gelding
  • 17 years

  • Very low mileage for his age.
  • Looking for his own person, has done horsemanship in the past and tunes into you when he knows you
  • He is happy to do obstacles, has been over bridges, seesaws, through curtains etc
Sweet Twm, has come back to me and I am helping his owner find him a new friend. Sadly her circumstances have changed and she can no longer keep him. He is such a good pony that I had said bring him back ,if ever you have to let him go.

This is what she said.... "Hi Julie, It is making me so sad at the thought of letting Twm go. We just adore him as a family, and he brings me and the girls so much joy. He is so good with them, his gentle nature and steadiness is hard to come by....."

This pony is no world beater, but if you want a safe pony to hack out with friends, he's your man! He doesn't really like to go it alone, I think if he was regularly ridden he may become confident to go out alone, but the joy of Twm is that you don't have to ride regularly. He will happily stay in the field while the others go out.

He will live in or out , probably prefers out but we stabled overnight in the winter and he was happy to come in...As long as there is food he will do most things. We didn't rug him. He has recently been living alone and didn't seem to mind at all.
Good with farrier, dentist etc. Loads and travels well. Good with children and dogs.
I have no idea if Twm has ever been schooled in an arena, I think he has probably done some natural horsemanship groundwork. He is light to ride and easy to stop.

Like most Welsh (if you know you know!) he is a bit reserved at first and takes a while to trust. He works well in a routine, feeding at same time, same place that kind of thing. Definitely does not need to be ridden regularly (once a fortnight in previous home) and he is no different either way. The worst thing he does is be a bit difficult to catch if out of a routine, but again will always come for food. (He's Welsh!)

I would like him to have a quiet gentle rider, I don't think he would understand being bullied. (We have never had to so??)

Twm is a bay Welsh D gelding 17yrs old with very low mileage. Good breeding (Nebo and Thornyside) No lumps or bumps, fit and healthy. He comes with a saddle, bridle and two rugs.

Mona and Inka are a mother daughter duo who came into the centre in March 2025. They are looking for a home where they can stay together.

Mona is a lovely little Shetland pony with a kind heart and gentle spirit, now looking for a special home to call her own. She has a calm temperament and enjoys the company of both people and other ponies. Mona is well-mannered and would make a wonderful companion pony.

Inka loves attention, enjoys being groomed, and gets along well with other ponies. She’s ideal for a family with experience in caring for ponies or a companion home where she can enjoy a peaceful and loving environment.

Due their type they do require restricted grazing. They are currently out during the day and in overnight on a woodchip area.

Can you offer Mona and Inka a loving home together?

DO YOU HAVE A HORSE OR PONY SUITABLE FOR THE RDA?

WANTED ON LONG TERM LOAN / PURCHASE
Ref #: 249896
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below
  • If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below

One of the main issues that RDA groups face is finding an Equine to suit the needs of the participants in their group.

We are regularly contacted with offers of Equines that are ‘the ideal RDA horse or pony’ when actually what is ideal for one group may not be for the next. We are trying to move away from the stereotypical view that RDA Equines are elderly and somewhat static, our horses and ponies need to be fit, healthy and athletic to cope with the lifestyle in an RDA group.

They can range from smaller, forward going ponies to weight carrying cobs and can take part in a range of disciplines from Riding to Carriage Driving, Vaulting to Show Jumping and Endurance.

If you contact an RDA Group about your Equine please be prepared to fill in an Equine Initial Interest Form which will ask you many questions about your horses’ temperament, health history, experience and lifestyle. Many groups will prefer to have an equine on trial to make sure they are suitable for the job.

For long term loans and purchases they will also be required to have a Pre-Purchase Examination.

If you think your equine has what it takes, please contact one of the groups below.

For Sale ‘Extra’ an amazing Bay, Welsh Section ‘C’ Gelding.

Extra is the most amazing pony and this is genuinely a heartbreaking sale which is due to our daughter outgrowing him. It is now time for him to cast his magic with a new rider but needs a loving home.

He is not a lead rein but is a great first pony for a rider with an independent seat, confident in walk trot canter as he can be a bit speedy.

Do not be fooled by age, he is 21 but he has qualified for the NSEA Grassroots Nationals and Hickstead in the past month and regularly appears in the top three, jumping 50 to 70cm. Favourite competing places are Wellington, TandP, Snowball Farm, Bury Farm and the BCA.

Extra is great to catch, will never kick, fun to tack up and will stand all day being pampered and decorated for pony club events!

He hacks alone or in company, and is great in traffic.

He has done unaffiliated dressage, cross country and LOTs of show jumping (which is our daughters love).

Great to load, travel, clip and shoe.

Our vet says he will pass vetting and is amazed by his athleticism and references from his weekly instructor can also be made available.

He will only be sold to the very best loving home, and all enquiries must provide video’s before we would agree to visits.

MINNIE

We have had Minnie for the past three years, where she stepped down and guided her nervous, 11 year old rider through on to be a brave, confident and happy 14 year old! She is the perfect 1.5/2nd pony. She will always look after her rider, a real been there, done it type who needs to find a new person to help bring on and have lots of fun with.

Minnie will turn her hoof to anything and has had a varied life of hunting, eventing (loves a ODE/hunter trial!), show jumping, cross country, mounted games, beach rides and pony club rallies and camps. She always behaves beautifully at any event she attends. She loads well and will travel alone and in company and happy to stand quietly on the trailer/lorry to wait.

She has compete at courses of 90cm/1m but out at competitions now in a big arena, she is more comfortable and happy at 75/80. She is always praised for how quick she is against the clock and loves a jump off turn!

Minnie loves going out on a hack, she is happy alone or in company and is super safe in an open space. She loves to have fun out on beach rides and she also really enjoys mounted games, again, her aptitude for a tight turn often puts her in the lead for the barrel turns or weaving! She just loves it!

Minnie is polite, good to catch and easy to handle; safe for a child to bring in, take out etc. She is happy to stand to be groomed, great for the dentist/farrier/vet etc and a dream to clip. She is a good doer and super easy to care for.

Really sad sale due to her current rider out growing her and needing to move onto horses. Home is super important to us. Minnie has been used to a pampered life with regular clips/physio/salt therapy sessions to help keep her in peak condition! We would love to find her a new best friend who can love her as much as we do. She prefers a quiet, calm, kind rider; if she feels loved she will give you the world. Don’t let her age put you off, she is an absolute superstar and still has so much to give!

We will be keeping her saddle but happy to include bridle and all her rugs (she has a fair few!)

Lots more photos and videos on request

Extremely sad sale of our pony of lifetime.

She is also extremely competitive, will fill your child with confidence and always be 100% safe.

Buttons is a machine XC, never strong or sharp in any way.

She hacks alone and in company, we don’t have an arena at home so always ridden in open fields.

With Buttons my daughter has been to -

-Pony Club Regional Championship (finishing 2nd out of over 80 competitors in the Showjumping Final)
-Pony club National Championships.
-Royal Highland Show Pony Club Final.

She is fabulous to do, Clip (not even a headcollar needed), shoe and travel (prefers a rear face or herringbone, will travel in a forward facing trailer but only on her own)

She is a dream at shows, and stayaways.

For more info please WhatsApp or call (after 3pm please)

Price includes tack and rugs.

We are looking for a very special home for Buttons.

Caridines Bubbles

Ref #: 371815
  • Pretty allrounder perfect for pony club and showjumping
  • Forward responsive ride with scopey jump
  • Sweet natured and easy on the ground
£4,750
  • Welsh Section B
  • Palomino
  • Mare
  • 15 years
  • 12.2 hands
  • Pretty allrounder perfect for pony club and showjumping
  • Forward responsive ride with scopey jump
  • Sweet natured and easy on the ground

We have had Bubbles for two and a half years and she is now very sadly outgrown.

In the time we have had her she has done pony club, day and stay away camps and rides on the moor and beach.

She is a pleasure to have on the yard with a very sweet personality and my children can do everything with her.

She has taken my daughter from jumping 50cm to 70 cm courses and has schooled higher. She loves jumping and is quick in a jump off.

She isn’t a first pony as she is a forward going and responsive ride. She is best when kept in regular work (3-4 times a week is plenty), good to lunge and will ride and lead, easily keeping up with a bigger horse.

She is good to catch, load, clip and with the farrier and dentist. Doesn’t change when out in open spaces and good in traffic.

Unfortunately our competitive career with Bubbles has been limited as she was diagnosed with a bone cyst in her stifle last year. She has been treated for this with joint injections and has been given the all clear from the vet and physio and has been back in work for 3 months and is happily doing everything asked of her. She has been priced to reflect this, I am more than happy to discuss this further.

She will come with tack and rugs including Kent and masters saddle.

A perfect lead-rein pony, he’s the one we trust completely to be loved and pampered by small children.

He has given us many happy memories, jumping up to 70cm and schooling beautifully on the flat.

Eddie looks and feels half his age and is in fantastic condition.

Part Bred Welsh B x Competition Pony

Ref #: 370308

  • Show jumping pony
  • Good all rounder
SOLD!
  • Welsh Section B
  • Chestnut
  • Gelding
  • 22 years
  • 13 hands
  • School master
  • Show jumping pony
  • Good all rounder
Darcy has been my daughter's pony for the past 4 years but he's been hopelessly outgrown and a change in circumstances has forced a very sad sale.

We are still very much in touch with his old owner who had him for 11 years prior.

Please don't let his age put you off, he is not ready to retire and he's still very much full of life and is completely sound and I would love to see him making another child's dreams come true.

Darcy is a forward going fun responsive ride and is quick off the leg.

Darcy really excels at Showjumping and is very fast against the clock and is always in the placings even in very large classes. He has recently been out competing at 50/60cms with ease.

He has done mounted games and pony club racing in the past and was very successful.

To hack he is bomb proof on the roads but can get a bit excited before a gallop. He has never bucked or reared.

Darcy has taken my daughter from doing lead rein/first ridden on him to winning overall junior at our local riding club for the past 3 years and representing the club at STARS at Aintree.

He really excels in the show ring with his flashy movement and effortlesss transitions.

He also makes a good working hunter and will produce a lovely dressage test.

He is up to date with teeth, feet, worming, injections, physio etc and is currently bare foot.

He will come with all his tack (including shires hi lite saddle/show saddle/every day bridle/show bridle) and rugs. The right home is more important than price.
