Meet our Bubbles - Full bred New Forest 13.2 5 year old Gelding. This little fella can do it all.

He happily takes the kids around on lead rein never over jumping to do the x pole class,

He can then change to a slightly older child and jump around 40/50cm straight poles & change again and jump a bigger class or go xc with a more advanced rider.

He really is the ultimate family pony, and he’s ready to find his new place in one where he enjoys all the love & attention in the ground equally as much when being ridden.

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

No vices.

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.

Super, confidence giver will bring on any child!

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.

Barney - What can I say about this pony?

If you are looking for a pony that will help restore your child's confidence or for a child just starting to ride, Barney is the one. He will take a child from jumping poles on the ground to 70 cm. Barney has a few different gears and will always do as he's asked, adjusting to the rider.

My daughter was at rock bottom with her confidence, but Barney and she grew together. They won the Leinster Championships, got placed 6th in the All Ireland inter provincials and he has jumped in almost every equestrian centre in Leinster. We trust him with our lives!

My daughter does everything with him, from bathing and tacking up to turning out, mucking out while he’s in the stable, and loading. She took him to pony camp and had a great time. Unfortunately, the time has come for us to find this one-in-a-million pony another rider, as we are ready to step up!

Serious enquiries only. Absolutely no dreamers or time wasters.

Barney will only go to the right home with the right family

Hetty is a super pony who will suit a variety of homes I think she would make a wonderful mother daughter share, or a 2nd pony safe enough to be a first pony but still needs to know who is boss.

Her greatest strength is how safe she is to hack she regularly takes adults and children out through a busy village and down to the beach as well as on local fun rides and has done plenty of mountain hacking. For all she is heavier cob type she is not at all lazy.

Hetty will pop over a log or small XC jumps out hacking and on fun rides but has not been a competition pony in life so far.

She would be great for pony club camps and rally days with somebody happy popping around the little stuff

Open to all viewings and vettings. No school at home so happy to take viewers out hacking or alternatively if how she is in a school is important we can organise to hire one.

She comes with a full wardrobe saddle, bridle, rugs etc and I can help with transport too.
