  • Great Schoolmaster
  • Kind with Children
  • Lovely Family/RS Type

A super natured real fun schoolmaster pony that would teach a child the ropes without being at all hot headed or too keen.

A great pony that will happily jump coloured fences or XC and he will jump a log or rail with no complaints - you push and steer and Freddo will do the rest!!

A completely genuine pony that is great to hack anywhere, rides on the buckle and is really kind and easy to manage.

Freddo has done some Riding School work in Ireland and is happy to take a child or would do a lightweight mum!

A pony that is an absolute diamond to both ride and handle and will gently trot and canter around the arena with a novice child and will help them to learn to jump little courses.

He is great to catch, tie up, loads in a trailer or a lorry, stands peacefully with the farrier , and loves being bathed and groomed.

Brandy is a smart moving little cob that has been working in a riding centre in Ireland.

She jumps really well and has competed at some novice SJ shows and has done lots of XC which she really enjoys !

A great fun pony that would be a super pony for a child to take out and enjoy this winter!

Brandy rides out happily alone or with a group and is not at all strong or hot-headed in big open spaces, she great to hack and is very reliable in the heaviest of traffic.

A really kind soul that loves being brushed and groomed and is very nice tempered around children. Good to turn out with others and is nice to catch, lead, ties up well, good loading and with the farrier too!

Box’s great and wonderful with other horses in the field…

Princess is very kind but requires a experienced rider and is a bit too much for my little 10 year old daughter…

We have not had her long and it was a bit too much to handle as a first ridden…

  • Super teaching pony
  • Affectionate and used to lots of fuss
  • Fabulous xc and very safe in open spaces
Approx 12hh Registered Welsh Section A gelding, 16 years old. Heartbreaking sale of my daughter’s best friend.

Casper has been a brilliant first pony for my daughter. He’s taken her from a very timid lead rein jockey, to cantering confidently around open fields and competing at a variety of local events. He has given her all her first riding experiences off the yard - clinics, Working Hunter, SJ, mini HT and XC and a very memorable ride with friends around Somerford Park farm ride - jumping everything in their path.

Calm and sensible when out and about, he doesn’t get lit up in open spaces or on group rides. Happy in busy practice rings and falls asleep ringside between classes - he won’t stand alone on the trailer, but this has never affected us as he’s so easy at a show.

He’s been ridden bareback, vaulted on, dressed in tinsel, bells, flowers (and as a lion in his previous home!) and hasn’t batted an eyelid. Never bucked, reared, bolted. If you stop kicking, he will come back in two strides; which has given my daughter so much confidence - we just now need a bigger pony with more gears as she has grown so much, and is ready to take on new challenges.

He has a lovely way of going with three smooth, balanced paces - and can really strut his stuff with longer legs on board! Happy on the lead with little jockeys teaching up-downs and first canters on the lunge, but equally would produce a lovely little dressage test with a more established jockey. Has jumped up to 70cm at home and xc schooling - where he truly excels - and has competed at 30/40/50 cm on and off lead - decorating both my daughters’ bedroom walls with rosettes. Will back off show jumps with fillers and takes some encouraging with new fences, so please don’t enquire if you are looking for a pony to carry a child around a course - that isn’t who he is. He loves XC fences and is a saint with steps, ditches and canters happily through water. He will follow or lead just the same and stand watching others patiently. XC is my daughters favourite discipline, due entirely to the feeling Casper has given her.

He is easy to do and used to children, non-riders, dogs, poultry and sheep. He is my go-to pony when we have friends to visit who don’t ride, and has been used routinely for teaching riding lessons.

Sweet-natured, loves fuss, grooming and kisses and has no stable vices. Very much the Welsh pony, he will tow to grass / haynet / feed bins when leading (show me a pony that doesn’t!) but has been independently handled, tacked up, loaded etc by my daughter - he’s just taught her to be on the ball!

Never sick or sorry and very low maintenance. Up to date with vaccinations, dentist, farrier and physio (routine). I’ve regularly updated his previous owner on our adventures and have had contact with the previous home too, so most history known. Super feet, always been barefoot and never had health issues.

He has been the centre of our happiest moments in 2024 and 2025 - we have hundreds of photos and videos of all we have done. He is fit and ready to help another young jockey (or a family of them!) learn the ropes and go on adventures together. We are looking for a loving and knowledgeable home, and will not be rushing the sale as we adore him. He will come with some tack and full wardrobe. Newly fitted Black Country saddle available by separate negotiation.

POA - please message or call Emily on 07956107499 with any questions. WhatsApp fine but I have issues with SMS!

Mothers Dream Pony Looking for Her New Best Friend

  • Would make a super Pony Club all-rounder
Oreo is a beautifully put-together 12.2hh Gypsy Cob mare with the temperament every parent dreams of. Safe, sensible, and full of love — this pony has been a real confidence-giver and is now looking for her next little person due to my daughter sadly outgrowing her.

Full history known, Oreo has been in the same extended family since she was backed. She spent time at a riding school (not dead to the leg!) when she returned to our good friends, my daughter fell in love and so she came to us. Still living in her original home. Since then, she’s taken my autistic, highly anxious 11-year-old daughter from being ready to give up riding altogether to confidently hacking, showing, jumping, and even tackling XC courses.

A true first pony or second pony.
Oreo is:
- Bombproof in all settings; heavy traffic, dogs, open spaces, nothing phases her
- Easy to handle; perfect with farrier, vet, to catch, load, groom, bathe
- Happy living in a mixed herd, and turns out beautifully
- Hacks alone or in company
- Ridden off lead by 4 &5-year-olds never puts a hoof wrong
- Recently jumping 70cm with ease
- Not fizzy or sharp, but responsive and willing
- Manners to burn both on the ground and ridden
- Stunning to look at; thick mane, tail, and feathers

Oreo would make a super Pony Club all-rounder, or stepping stone to independence. She’s been to the beach, local shows, clinics, and is always impeccably behaved.

We may consider a swap or part exchange for a safe, sensible 14.2/15hh pony suitable for a novice (but not complete beginner) child rider.
Serious enquiries only; home is absolutely paramount.

Zara was professionally broken and has been riding away nicely with a novice rider. Has shown in hand and under saddle.

A really striking mare with a phenomenal attitude towards her work. 3 lovely paces and great off the leg.

She is still green, but has great potential.

She jumps for fun with a beautiful technique over a fence, would go to the top as a working hunter pony.

Bold and brave to a fence has never said no.

Grand sire competed successfully to HOYS level and was a top track WHP (photo attached)

Impeccable ground manners in and out of the stable and a really nice natured mare to have around.

Lack of jockey forces sale.

Billy is a traditional cob with a full mane, tail, and feather.

He is barefoot with excellent feet, up to date with vaccinations, worming, and teeth, and easy to catch, bath, groom, and for the farrier.

He is sadly looking for a new home due to my own health issues, which have limited how much I have been able to do with him.

He has done a bit of everything in his previous home, including some low-level dressage. He has not been ridden the last few months so looking for a knowledgeable, kind and confident rider to bring him on. He’s still green so not a novice ride.

He is a lovely boy with a cool character and a can do attitude so looking for a kind and knowledgeable home.

This is a genuine sale of a lovely little horse with lots of potential in the right hands.

Tack negotiable.

Outstanding potential FEI pony

  • 14.1 hands
  • Perfect model, beautifully put together
  • Produced carefully and correctly
  • Natural jumper

I’ve had Nellie since she was an unbroken 3yo and she has been an absolute pleasure in every regard since day 1.

She is the perfect model, beautifully put together with an attractive head and her breeding (half Connemara half thoroughbred) gives her all the desirable attributes needed in top competition pony.

I backed her lightly last year and she was an old head on young shoulders, taking everything in her stride and showing herself to be very intelligent, trainable and willing to work.

This year she has been produced carefully and correctly, being given time to mature while also being exposed to different environments and situations - which hopefully stands her in good stead to start het competition career.

She has 3 fabulous paces and a beautiful way of going, and has done plenty of basic schooling on a surface and on grass, and she’d be able to go out and do a low level test now. She moves well enough to be produced as a pure dressage pony - and she’d definitely be at home in the show ring.

Nellie is an out and out natural jumper. She has an amazing technique and is careful and clever. She’s jumping courses in the arena and on grass and is jumping away over fillers, water trays and combinations.

Over solid fences she seems to be equally as natural and has taken on banks, ditches etc first time with no issues, and has always been very safe and genuine.

She is a pleasure to have on the yard, she lives in or out, alone or in company and is really sweet to handle. She’s easy to shoe, travel, pull mane, do teeth etc and has no vices at all. She also loves going hacking and is happy to go out by herself on or off road, and she’s used to farm machinery, dogs and small children.

Having previously produced two FEI event ponies - of whom was selected for Europeans - I genuinely think this is the most talented young pony I’ve had and in the right home I have no doubt she will end up on teams and winning endless prizes. She is just the most gorgeous pony with an incredible brain/temperament, and is any little girls absolute dream.

Videos available on request and she is located in Republic of Ireland, near Thurles, and transport from Cork airport can be provided free of charge. (Also approx 2 hours from Dublin airport)

Cosmo Approx 12,2 (small enough for kids of all ages to ride but equally takes up the leg well enough for small lightweight adult/teenager to ride. )

Super friendly ,lovely character and 100% around children dogs ect and unfazed by busy/noisy environment.

Cosmo is great on lead rein and will happily follow someone on foot or another horse with a tiniest of riders.
Equally he can be ridden of lead rein and has a great attitude to work.

He is nice and easy of the leg and listens well to the voice.

Enjoys hacking out and is often hacked out by my 5 and 3 year old nieces. He loves being pampered and fussed over and stands while the kids fuss over him. He has 3 lovely paces and is happy to pop a a little course of jumps. Could make a great show pony as he has beautiful markings and nice paces. He will happily step up for a confident rider to do some pony club ect and drop back down to look after the tiniest tots.

He has done common ridings with inexperienced novice young riders and looked after them very well. He did his first in hand showing class and behaved impeccable and was placed well. He took part in a local gymkana doing handy pony games ect and showed he wasn’t fazed by anything.

He stands well to be clipped bathed and brushed ect. Is always handled by my 3&5 year old nieces- they do everything with him- leading him to the feild, grooming, tacking up, bathing, loading him and playing dress up and taking him to into there play area with the swings and trampoline (often using these to climb on him and slide of his bum)

Only for sale as the kids already have 3 ponies between them and dont have the room to keep them all- as much as they would love to!

Tia is every mother dream for their child to learn the ropes and get loads of experience at the lower levels. She is a stunning little pony with a huge CV in loads of different disciplines. Tia is fun and very safe, with good breaks and a lovely temperament. She can be dealt with in every way but little ones, including catching, loading, washing, tacking up and grooming. She NEVER bites or kicks, pulls away or causes any sort of annoyance.

Her absolute forte is teaching little ones and having so much fun at around 60cm and smaller. She will jump bigger at training, but is happy at competitions around 60cm.

Tia WON NSEA Championships in 2024 at Hickstead in the 40cm and also jumped the 50cm and has qualified for 2025 at 50 and 60cm. She also competed in 2023 too. Tia has done ALL PC activities, camps, rallies, competed in dressage and SJing, arena XC, XC schooling and much much more.

Loves hacking, goes first or last, and is good in open spaces. Great to be led from another horse/pony. Unfazed by traffic.

Tia just loves hunting. She had Hunted with a 9yo girl. Loves it and is great with hounds.

Loads onto trailers and lorries and travels brilliantly, alone or company. Happily stands and calmly on the lorry or trailer all day at competitions. Great at stay away shows.

Good to clip, shoe, catch, dentist, farrier.

Full history known from a 4yo as she’s always been owned by families in Worcestershire.

5* home more important than price for this much loved pony.
