Bella is a beautiful, sweet-natured 13hh British Riding Pony who has been a truly wonderful partner. Sadly now outgrown, she’s ready to bring joy and confidence to her next young rider – whether just starting out or looking for a fun, reliable and capable pony to enjoy all-round activities.

She’s a genuine all-rounder who is regularly ridden out in open spaces, on the beach, enjoys jumping, and has previously done cross country. She’s safe, responsive, and a pleasure to ride and handle – the kind you don’t come across often.

• Safe, responsive, and easy to ride
• Happy to hack alone – regularly ridden out solo
• Frequently ridden on the beach and in open spaces
• Jumps happily and has previously done cross country
• Excellent in traffic – lorries, tractors, dogs – all no problem
• No vices – easy to catch, groom, shoe, and box
• Kind, calm temperament – stands patiently to be fussed over
• Lives out and is easy to keep

I’ve always felt completely safe with my child on Bella – she gives confidence without ever being strong or silly.

She’s a lovely choice for a wide range of children – ideal as a first pony, or as a second pony for gaining confidence, or for enjoying Pony Club, fun rides, and competitions. Bella loves attention, enjoys her work, and is always ready for a ride or a cuddle. She’s fit, active, and has plenty to offer her next family.

Bella is now looking for her next best friend – to share fun, adventures, and all the joys of pony life. She has been a much-loved part of our family, and we’re looking for a caring home where she will continue to be cherished.

Chance is a lovely child’s pony, my daughter has come of the lead rein and learnt to canter with her. She is an old head on young shoulders. She can be handled led tacked up and groomed by children.

Her only floor is she can be a pickle to load, so adult supervision is needed. Great with the farrier,vet to catch and amazing to clip.

Chance has done it all since being with us, my daughter loves pony club. rally’s, group lessons, show jumping,dressage,mounted games, camp she’s been amazing at it all.

Recently we’ve competed in showing classes which she has excelled in, she’s taught my daughter ring craft and hasn’t put a foot wrong. She has been placed in the top 3 in first ridden every time out and has always been highly placed in hand also.

This is where her strength is I feel a showing dressage home would really suit her.she show jumps well but is a novice and gets her confidence from her rider.

She hacks out alone or in company and is good in traffic and in open spaces. We are based on a working farm so heavy machinery cows sheep dogs goats do not phase her. I have lots of pictures and videos so please message me for more info.

We are based Tunbridge Wells.

Daisy  

10.3hh 16 year old Shetland cross Chestnut Mare

Sadly Daisy is looking for a new home to teach another little person the ropes. She is a loveable, friendly, gentle pony who has taken my daughter off the lead rein and given her so much confidence. I can’t fault her for all she has taught my daughter.

My 7 year old does absolutely everything with her from catching her and leading her out the field, loading her, tacking her up, picking her hooves out and she’s is an absolute saint for it all.

She has done all PC activities from games, to rallies, to going up the gallops and has never put a foot wrong. She hacks out perfectly in traffic and open spaces and has taught my daughter to canter through open fields and always pulls up. She is very forgiving to an unbalanced rider and is much more woah than go.

Regularly competes showjumping courses of 30/40cm off the lead rein and is foot perfect at shows. She is worth her weight in gold.

As we live on a farm she is used to all sorts of farm machinery and farm animals/dogs.

She is the perfect child’s pony and so easy to do, never sick or sorry and up to date with farrier, dentists and vaccinations and stands perfect for them all.

Only for sale as my daughter has outgrown her capabilities. Daisy has done her job too well! She has given her so much confidence and as her passion is jumping, she is now wanting to jump bigger courses with a bit more speed!

This is a very sad sale and a 5* home is a must but it’s time for another little person to enjoy her and have an amazing summer with her.

 She is gentle, kind, and loves being fussed over by kids. Dolly stands patiently to be brushed and is always ready to make new friends.

**Experience:**

Pony Parties: Dolly has delighted many children at pony parties with her calm and friendly demeanor.

Pony Events: She has been a reliable participant in various pony events.

Family Pony: Dolly has been a cherished member of our family, bringing joy and smiles to everyone she meets.

Additional Information:

Off the Lead Rein: Dolly can go off the lead rein. She is safe with no nap, rear, or buck.

Confident Rider: While Dolly is well-behaved, she can be strong and forward, so she would need a confident, capable rider off lead. However this year whilst being mainly a field ornament she has happily had more wobbly novices walk, trot and canter round the 5 acre field with out feeling strong.

Jumping and Hunting: Dolly has hunted in the past and, when fit, can happily jump around 70-80 cm.

Missy will lead with another horse on the lead. Missy loves being groomed (fidgets when bathed so I just don’t let my little girl bath her)
