- Gelding preferred but open to mare if affectionate, kind and not mareish

- Must be sane and sensible out hacking and be used to a variety of things, including cyclists, various machinery and manage motorway bridges and train bridges with encouragement.

- Horse will be highly pampered, enjoying lots of grooming sessions and cuddles! Must be a people person and like spending lots of time with me, as will be on assisted DIY.

- Enjoy schooling max twice a week, as owner would like to learn and grow with the horse, but this would always be varied as I get bored in the school too!

- Possibility of dressage shows, small clear rounds in the future. Bonus points if will jump the odd log now and again!

- Will receive daily turnout, including possibility of 24/7 turnout in the summer. Stabled overnight in winter.

If you have a keen, chilled out horse who would like to do more and is ready to live their best life please get in touch. As it is my first horse, viewings will be requested and the horse will be 5 stage vetted.

  • Safe, Genuine Novice Ride
  • 16hh+ | 8 Years & Over
  • Full Livery & Experienced Support

Looking for my first horse and hoping to find the right long-term partner.

I'm an adult beginner rider, looking for a sensible, confidence-giving horse that I can learn and progress with.

Ideally looking for:

16hh or above

8 years old or older

Kind, calm and forgiving temperament

Well-schooled and established, rather than green or sharp

Sensible to hack, ideally alone and in company

Happy with general schooling and some low-level jumping

Good manners on the ground and straightforward to handle

The horse will be kept on full livery, with experienced support and regular schooling by the yard, so there will be plenty of help on hand.

I'm not looking to compete seriously, just to develop my riding, enjoy hacking, schooling and a bit of jumping, and hopefully build a great partnership.

Budget: Ideally £10,000–£12,000, but flexible for the right horse.

Based in Norfolk, happy to travel for the right one.

This will be a long-term home, and I'm in no rush to buy. Temperament and suitability are far more important to me than breed, colour or competition history.

Please get in touch if you have anything suitable or know of a horse that might fit.

Must be good to hack, handle and take out.

Nothing green or needing producing, and no sharp/strong types, bucking, rearing or bolting.

Would love something I can continue showing and possibly do some low-level jumping/Workers with.
