  • Enjoys affection and laid back
  • 14.1-15.1h
  • Preferably 7-12 years old
Finally looking for one for me to ride! I’ve got 3 other geldings at home that we love but are for my kids so this one will be for me.
Would love something super safe to hack as my youngest I’ll be leading still for a little longer. Ok with dogs, tractors, cats and little people.

Would love them to be safe on the ground, enjoy affection. Preferably gelding as that is what we have but if if an unmarish mare came along that i could safely lead my sons gelding off that would be great.

I’d love a confidence giver as I have had a 10 year break. Being able to jump is a bonus as I a sure as my sons grow they will want whatever I am riding.

We keep our ponies at home and love them. I am so excited about finding the right one for me to hack and take on adventures.

Price negotiable depending on right pony/ horse and very happy to travel

Castlemeadow Kathryn
Allrounder 8yrs Unregistered Section A type.

Unfortunately my 6yr old son is not really into riding, we have persevered to see if he does want to ride and our pony has progressed into a super pony club pony but my son prefers bikes. We’ve done all different pony club activities:-
Shows
 PC Rallies
 Gymkhana Games
 Poles/ Showjumping competitions - won 2026 Sunshine Tour Qualification 30cms SJ.
 Hacking - including Forest & Beach Rides
 Hunted (in previous home).

We’ve mainly done lead rein and assisted (I run beside) we’re progressing to be being off lead and Katie is very good with him but she does need some direction. I’m not selling as a proven ‘first ridden’ and she’s done nothing nasty, I think she will progress with a family or child that really wants to do it. I would love her to go to a family with siblings as I think she would cover most disciplines, she needs to do more but I have no other children to ride.
Katie has been ridden by older children, to bring on her schooling. She will jump a course on her own, we’ve jumped upto 50cms. She’s brave not spooky, will jump fillers and walk over matts, fake water, plastic, handy pony things.
She’s good in all ways, may take a little while to bond but when she does, she’ll be your best friend. Good to lunge.
Not mare ish, has lived in mixed herd.
She is a petite pony, I’d like her to go to a home where she would have a stable, she’s used to going out day time but she’s not a hardy type to be out 24/7.
She’s a bit nervous to clip but I can do it without sedation, some nuts and kindness and she gets better every time. Had Teeth done recently & up to date with Vacs/ Farrier.
Based in Suffolk (East Coast A12).
Open to Vet
Can include Tack & Rugs
Priced Mid 4 Fig’s.

The most heartbreaking sale!!!!!!!!!!!!Tinkerbel!!!! The unicorn FYFR Dream!!!!!!!

11.1hh 9 years old welsh A mare. We have owned Tinkerbel nearly 5 years now in which she has done everything with my 2 girls. We got her as only just backed and she has been a dream since day one. She is fantastic to hack alone or in company she will take the tiniest of riders and look after them. She has done all pc activities, games, camps, show jumping, fun rides, hunting. You can lead her from another horse will go first or last.

She is 100% safe on the ground and a toddler could lead her . She is fantastic to catch, clip, farrier. She is up to date with everything. I am going to be incredibly fussy where she goes. I would like her to go to a family with a tiny tot child and maybe some younger siblings coming through so she can stay in the same home for as long as possible…I will not sell her to a older bigger child where she will be outgrown quickly.

I am happy to answer any questions if you call me!!!! She will be sold with all her tack and rugs, She is ridden in a Zoe Snape pad. Can give references from our pony club dc all vet history is available ( never had a days lameness) open to any vetting and x rays if wanted.

Johnny is a lovely little first ridden pony who has been with us for only 16 month but taught my daughter so much and helped her become a confident little rider. He lives out with geldings and mares. He is always easy to catch and can be groomed, tacked up, rugged or loaded by my children. Very sad sale but my daughter has grown too tall now (and is nearly 9) and wants to jump bigger and faster. He’s happy on the lead rein and would look after tiny tots until they were ready to be unassisted.

He loves hacking in the countryside and is fine with traffic and farm vehicles or animals. He is great out hunting and did this in his previous home as well. He has been to lots of pony club rallies and events, competed at Bicton mini champs 2025 (2 clear rounds in 40 assisted class) and qualified for NSEA Grassroots champs at Hickstead 2026. He is slow and steady so doesn’t win any speed contests but he’ll happily pop around a course of cross poles and 40cm jumps keeping his rider safe.

We would love Johnny to go to a knowledgeable home with small children to ride him as he is such a kind and genuine sort. He is very easy in general but his one fear is the sound of the clippers so I have had him sedated for this. Please WhatsApp for more info.

  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers

I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There’s no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet, that’s not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion.

  • Sad sale, only due to current rider outgrowing her

Tia Maria is wonderful 19 year old grey mare, a true all rounder with a heart of gold and lots to give. She stands at 12.2hh (approx) and has been the perfect partner for a young rider who has sadly now outgrown her.

• Brilliant lead rein pony or a good second pony off the lead with a more experienced rider
• Talented jumper – happily clears 80cm but has jumped over 1m15cm
• Doesn’t rear or bite
• Has never had laminitis
• Loves a cuddle
• Not easily spooked by passing traffic, etc
• Well-mannered on the ground, and with the farrier/vet/whilst travelling/grooming
• No health issues but can be prone to sweet itch, which is manageable

Tia is a pony who gives her all, whether it’s a long hack or a fun jumping session with a more confident rider. She’s reliable and has plenty of experience under her belt. Tia is easy to keep and handle, barefoot with feet in good condition.

This is a very sad sale of a much loved pony. She has taught her current rider so much over the last 5 years, but they have simply outgrown her. We are looking for a kind home where Tia can continue to shine and be cherished.

Tack/rugs, etc negotiable.

Freddie is sadly for sale my kids have out grown him we never wanted to part with him but this pony loves to work and he bored not doing anything

He's small but mighty is what I call him as he thinks he's 18hh he's got so much character

I’ve got loads of videos of him

Freddie is up to date with farrier , dentist, physio , worming and vacations

If you would like to know any more about him please ask,  this is a very hard decision but it would be cruel keeping him as a field ornament when he loves to be loved and worked

Extremely sad sale of this gorgeous little pony.
Star has been with us the last 6 years and has now been sadly outgrown. Although we would love to keep him forever he is too good to be wasted as a field ornament. He needs a new best friend to love and have lots of fun with.

Star is a very good boy at all times. He is always happy and always willing. He is great on and off the lead rein.

He has done pc mounted games, showjumping, dressage, and riding club showing on and off the lead rein. Good to hack and great in open spaces. Not nappy at all, very easy going and happy in his own company.

He would be suitable for all pc riding club activities.

Off the lead star would be more suited for a confident little rider that is fairly balanced and able to give clear aids as he is forward going and responsive. A gutsy little rider that doesn’t mind a fast pace would have so much fun and get the best out of him!

Having said that he does come down to a level for those learning off the lead rein in walk and trot it’s just his canter that’s a quick and responsive pace.

Star has no vices or quirks, and has never bucked, reared, or bolted.

I’ve been putting off selling him because we love him dearly and has never been a days trouble, he is such an easy pony to keep. Can live in or out, never sick or sorry.

This boy is so kind and gentle, he has perfect ground manners and is an angel around all children even the smallest of tiny tots can lead, groom, bath, load, dress up and do anything with him.

Everyone that’s meets this boy immediately falls in love!
We will all be extremely sad to see him go.

Lots of videos available up on request.
