Gary 12.2hh 10 year old gelding

Gary is a super flashy and well put together Welsh section B pony. He is by Teilwood Trysor out of a Eyarth Rio mare. He is a real eye catching type

Gary is a very talented pony, with 3 lovely paces and a very scopey jump. He is ultra careful and very willing. He has competed up to 75cm, been cross country and rides sweetly on the flat making a nice shape.

He is not sharp at all and is very level headed. He’s got an extremely trainable brain, the world is his oyster and he really will go on to do anything! He would excel in working hunter, dressage, bsja and would also be a fantastic export for the USA hunter jumpers

This boy really deserves a 5 star home, he is the friendliest pony and always wants cuddles and kisses

Amazing Allrounder Family Pony

13.1hh 9 yrs extremely kind and honest, loving family pony who is looking for the very best of homes where she can continue to give confidence, love and win rossettes for her new family.

A fantastic first or second pony club pony, a real professional in all activities, a brilliant confidence giver to get a child jumping from cross poles to 90cm , she is great both showjumping and cross country and was previously a fantastic hunting pony who has hunted with young children. She is a cracking push button ride, combining “ not too fast “ with equally “ not too slow” and is ridden with a snaffle at all times. Well schooled , and loves doing pairs , Hunter trials, unaffiliated jumping etc, has the scope and honestly to low level BSJA too!

To hack out she is as bombproof as they come, you name it, lorry’s , buses , tractors, farm machines, dogs, bikes , motorcycles, this little lady will not blink an eye ! She is chunky enough to carry a small adult so is suitable for all members of the family.

To handle she is an angel, catch, farrier, travel, bath, grooming. Has recently been used with underprivileged children in very small riding school environment and never stepping a hoof out of line.

5 stage home for this precious girl

Sadly looking for a new home for Tiggy…

Tiggy is a beautiful pony inside and out and loves people and attention!

Tiggy is a brilliant mix of fun but safe. She is not a kick a long- she listens to the leg.

She is well schooled and competed at regional and national level dressage quest in her previous home. She has been in pony club homes her whole life and is brilliant out and about and never phased by new places.

She is fantastic out hacking - Not spooky and sensible in open spaces.

Lead rein- Very polite on the lead rein. She jumps nicely and did all pony club activities successfully on the lead rein in her previous home. Will happily be lead off another horse.

Tiggy is excellent to catch, groom and for the farrier, vet. Never bitten or kicked. No health issues or history of lami.

She lives out 24/7 with us but is also happy in a stable. She does need company in the field either with her or next to her.

A dream childs pony in the making

George is a homebred pony, that has always been well handled & shown in hand as a youngster.

His dam is Bradmore Tinkerbell, grand dam is Deanhills Fairystory, and his sire is the Super Premium Dartmoor stallion Cayberry Final Salute. Registered with the NPS and eligible to be registered part bred Dartmoor. He is a 4 year old gelding, approx 12.2hands.

Lovely put together pony.

George has been broken and is going sweetly & is happy being handled by a tiny child. He is snaffle mouthed and has a lovely nature. He has been shown under saddle in a lead rein class where he behaved impeccably with a tiny jockey. He really isn’t phased by an atmosphere.

Will make a lovely show/dressage pony.

Due to his age & only just having being broken he is not suitable for a novice, but has proven to be a true child’s pony. Is only for sale as we have no jockey.

Lots of pictures & videos available to serious enquiries.

He’s good with the farrier, good to catch, load and travel. Loves to hack.

No vices.

  • Child's best friend

Rusty is a lovely, kind, gentle 1st pony type. Brave, not spooky, loves people, horses, dogs and knows his job. He's previously done dressage and shown successfully qualifying for and attended STARS.

We have done all pc activities, camp, hacking, lessons, farm rides. He'll have a try at anything with no fuss or bother including working equitation and horse ball. A real yard favourite that all the kids love.

Over the past 2 years Rusty has brought my son on from being a very nervous just off lead rein rider, to being an established, neat little rider, cantering in open fields and jumping small xc jumps confidently. Never spooky, nappy or strong and looks after his rider.

Great to do, a really easy pony to have around.

He has mild arthritis in right hock and I will disclose x-rays and vet history to serious enquiries. This has never been a problem and has never prevented us from being able to do anything. Managed with 1/2 danilon a day. He's never going to be a big jumping pony, his forte is being an excellent first pony to get little riders established and have fun. Could also be great for a dressage/ showing home.

Very sad sale of much loved pony.
All tack and rugs included.
No loans.

Idyllic pony , green passport

Been there done it type of pony, in his early years he done lots of in hand showing and first ridden classes , active member of pony club , mounted games, horseball , rallies, XC , polework clinics ,musical rides, showing, stay away shows .

Great pony for kids to learn to ride . He will take your child from lead rein to first ridden

We bought Clive as a first ridden for my daughter who was more independently coming off the lead rein . He has been the best next step pony for her and he is just the most honest and safe pony who will look after his little rider, Has done lots of hacking around and about , goes past tractors , all farm animals , safe with dogs running around. He will step up for an older rider or down for the little rider . He prefers XC rather than showjumping , but will equally happy go over a little course with a leader , following or an older child .

Never sick or sorry, lives on fresh air, currently living out in a herd. Happy to be stabled or shelter . Loves a bath, and good for farrier , clipping he does need sedation , he has had bad previous experience from being twitched . He is good for farrier and does need a lady vet and someone who doesn’t come in and try and stick a needle in him without first giving him some fuss and treats . (Has only ever needed vaccs and teeth doing!) he loads and travels brilliantly. Has stayed out at shows , you can take him to different environments and he is just the same . He is barefoot and up to date with vaccs, worming, teeth and comes with tack (beautiful new saddle fitted ) and rugs.

He is comfortable will all farm machinery and a variety of animals! Snaffle mouthed and never strong or silly , so happy out and about hacking too and loves looking after his little riders out in open spaces . Never changes if left for a week or two and then be ridden . He can be protective of his hay and happy when left alone to eat . He will pull a face to tell you to leave him alone to eat . Never a problem for us. Great to catch .

Very calm in the stable and field, not worried about being on his own. He in his element when he attends pony club with his fellow pony friends . Active member of pony club so always out and about . He has the best character . I can honestly say he has been the best confidence giver ever and this is why we have now come to the point that my daughter would like to take the next step pony , no other reason than my daughter wants to progress from a steady boy who has given her the best confidence from that transition from lead rein . I can’t thank this pony enough for where he has got my daughter too .

Happy to answer any questions you may have , only the best home for this boy

If you’re looking for a safe confidence giving starter pony he is the best .

Please only enquire if you are actively looking for a pony.

4yo Registered Shetland pony mare with exceptional breeding lines - 39inches tall.

Lattie has been professionally started - long reins, lunges and is happy with a little jockey on board wandering around the yard.

Good with dogs, kids, loads, travels & well behaved at arena hires (indoor and outdoor). She has bags of potential and will make top class M&M/LR with someone who is willing to further her education.

We purchased her from Clare Connor in December 2025 for our daughter who’s had a huge growth spurt and is even looking big on her 12.2 pony so we feel it is best to find Lattie a knowledgable home with a little jockey to build a partnership from the beginning.
