Lovely little pony looking for a 5* home for through no fault of her own, kids have lost interest and she is getting fat in the field.

Thistledown Snow Bunny is a super pony who hacks alone or in company, jumps would do dressage or pony club. She is a stunner mover with a great pop. Loves cuddles, we dragged her out of the field having not ridden her more than twice in a year, my daughter jumped straight on and she was as good as gold.

Lots of photos and videos available

Excellent to do in all ways. She does have some small sarcoids, hence price

Peggy is an absolute pleasure to have on the yard. Super easy and uncomplicated to do on the ground from bathing/clipping/farrier/dentist.
Undersaddle, Pegs is a lovely forward going ride and easy off the leg. She's excellent in the school and will happily walk/trot/canter. Peggy has popped over a few jumps however jumping isn’t really my thing so she really hasn’t done much of this at all. Although I’m sure she would be great. Pegs hasn’t been rushed, so she's a great clean canvas for someone to really mould her into something special!
Peggy hacks out alone or in company going first or last. Nothing phases Pegs while out be it lorries, motorbikes or even deer! She has done farm rides and beach rides.
She is up to date with all injections teeth and farrier. Loads fine on a trailer or box and travels well.
She is PSSM1 negative and tested Homozygous, meaning she will always throw a coloured foal if you wanted to breed.
Registered with CHAPS.

This pony has been here before. Brilliant with nervous or first timers or small children lovely nature! Knows his job and never misbehaves.

Ridden in a snaffle doesn’t bolt buck rear of nap not spooky at all. Excellent little pony to teach children to ride, not lazy either kick and go pull and stop.

Hacks out alone or in company. No stable vices not the best to clip and needs a kind farrier as little worried about men.

Same home since a youngster, no jockey forces sale of much loved pony.

Teeth and wormed done.

Super low maintenance lives in or out not one health issue. Lives in or out.

Goes on and off the lead rein. Loves jumping. Good to travel.

Very cool pony impossible to find. North west

Lovely Fell that is super sane and ridden by the whole family. Good to hack alone or in company. Seen all types of traffic ridden on open fields in groups and happily goes out alone, pops jumps has been show jumping and schooling well in a nice outline in a snaffle not strong !

(Just slightly under 14hh ) but very chunky lovely mover would do a good dressage test. And will show at county level.

A very well put together fell that will do well in showing . Done abit of everything for his age.

Loads of fun on farm rides

Easy in all ways no vices doesnt ever have any dramatic baby moments very laid back for his age but not a plod!

Would be a good first horse under instruction.

Ingrid - The Perfect Pony! Meet Ingrid, a charming 7-year-old mare standing at 13.3hh. With her solid “foot in each corner” build, she boasts fantastic confirmation and a delightful temperament. Ingrid has been loved and well-cared for in the same home since she was a yearling, but sadly, she’s too small for her previous owner.

Placid and manners to die for

Full history known; had a foal 2 years ago and is a fantastic mother.

PSSM1 Negative

Recently backed (just a few weeks ago) and has been incredibly good. Still green but eager to learn!

Ingrid enjoys riding in open fields, hacks beautifully, and has even been to arena hire. She’s a sweet little mare ready for a new adventure!

Available to view after this weekend.

Very reasonable mid 4 figures now—please note that the price will increase as her training progresses.

Serious inquiries only, please—no time wasters.

If you’re looking for a lovely pony with a bright future, Ingrid could be the one for you! Don’t miss out on this fantastic opportunity!

This lovely little mare has been with me for a long time. She was brought for my grandchildren to do lead rein and show.

She had been long reined, tack on , handled and showed in hand . However the children have lost interest so never fully backed but do think she would take much time to back, and be a lovely lead rein pony.She is now in the field doing nothing .

No history of illness , good with the farrier, fine to travel in a trailer.

Looking for a loving home for her.

  • Great temperament
  • Placed unaffiliated dressage/showing/SJ
Twiggy is a stunning very well bred welsh section B. She is a blood pony full of quality. She has clean limbs ,good feet,no lumps,bumps or sarcoids.

We brought her earlier in the year unbroken, where she had spent her life so far on the welsh hill's! Shes been a super star to do everything with and has taken to ridden life very well.

She is working well on the flat, popping a course of fences,hacking alone and in company. Has been XC schooling Inc water.

So far she has been out to unaffiliated dressage scoring just under 65 percent in both her tests and picking up two placings.
She has had placings in local showjumping 50/60 cm but with miles on the clock will have plenty more in the tank. Has recently been out to a local riding club show and was placed in the ridden showing. She did clear round X poles with my 4yo boy on the lead rein ... she is quite happy with him bouncing around on her back (as he refuses to rise) . She also did the fancy dress class .... and was an absolute saint being dressed up as a minion!! ... im not sure there are many 5 yo ponies that would do this ...Very well behaved in the collecting ring.

Shes good on the ground,likes little people, My son grooms her and leads her. She has been produced by my 64 yo mum ( 7 1/2 stone ) along side my son on the lead rein.. she has also been ridden by a friend of ours daughter who is 10.

A lovely young pony that could be produced on to do any job ... a very sane and sensible head but obviously not yet the finished article so experienced parent that can produce along side or do ground work would be ideal.

Fantastic home required for this lovely pony. Would like to keep in touch.

Shropshire based.

  • Rosie really is the teacher’s pet; she tries her hardest and wants to please
  • Fun loving pony that is ready to get out and about
  • She has plenty of untapped potential
Update: Recently Rosie has shown that she can be slightly nervous with new riders on her - she just becomes a bit tense, but has never bucked, reared or been naughty. She is relaxed and happy with me riding her, however has shown that she can be slightly nervous of new riders. She will be perfect for someone if she is given the time to get to know her rider. For this reason her price has been reduced to reflect the fact she will need time to settle in her new home.

Rosie is a well-mannered and brave pony that always tries her best. She has 3 flashy paces that are all improving daily. Jumping is Rosie’s favorite thing to do; she has the scope and brain to make a very talented show jumping or event pony. She would equally love a home that participates in Pony Club and wants to have tons of fun.
She is not quite the finished article, but at 7 years old she is improving every day. Rosie was backed as a 4-year-old and then had a foal as a 5-year-old, this means she is still green in her canter and jumping, however I have no doubt it won’t take long for her to ride her age.

Recently Rosie has been to an arena hire where she took everything in her stride and showed just how talented she is. She also recently went XC schooling, jumping ditches, water, steps and colored fences. Rosie didn’t hesitate at a single fence and jumped absolutely everything first time.
Good to load, travel and was happy to be left alone on the lorry even when another pony was taken away. Super easy to handle and very friendly. She has recently seen the dentist, physio, farrier and saddle fitter, and was well behaved for all of them.

When Rosie first came, she did put her back up and scoot forward when getting on. This now only happens very occasionally and I am sure she will completely grow out of this. But a rider that is happy to walk on a loose rein for a few minutes before asking her to do any proper work would suit her best.

She does have a saddle that is fitted to her that can be bought upon separate negotiations.

No vices, lumps or bumps

Outstanding Highland pony, top class Hoys/Junior , only been shown 3 times and won every time out.

Not schooled as he is only 4, but he has been hacked around the local park, around horse shows and around summerford park with no problems what so ever.

He is a fabulous mover for a highland and I can see him doing dressage as he is very impressive with a fabulous front and really comfortable to sit on.

Adorable 13hh 2009 grey new forest pony who’s been there, done it, and got the T-shirt.

He’s got plenty of pony club rallies under his belt, he’s a fun, safe and experienced allrounder.

Harry has three lovely paces on the flat, he’s comfortable and will work in a shape or on the buckle, he will ride off your voice and adjusts his way of going depending who’s on him, he will step down for a more novice incapable child, and step up for a more game, fun jockey.

He’s done pretty much everything and offers a wealth of experience, a brilliant little jumping pony when cross country and showjumping too. Harry is a reliable hack, safe sane and sensible in open spaces, easy to ride and utterly unbothered by traffic, including heavy farm traffic and fast moving vehicles.

A sweet chap on the ground, loves people and he’s everything you’d expect an experienced child’s pony to be.

Open to any vet or trainer.

Gunner has been in the same home for the past two years, being used as a happy hacker. He has done lots in his previous home, including Hunt rides, beach rides, fell pony 100 mile challenge, stay away rides as well as cross country jumping.

He is a steady ride, un-phased by heavy traffic, farm machinery, or building works. He rides through fields with livestock and good with gates. He is more kick than pull, and a safe ride for someone to go out and enjoy as a new steady best friend to adventure with.

Good allround pony, easy to do.

He will come with his full wardrobe including tack.

Maisey was only backed at 11yrs old and so has very low miles and still looks incredible. She has plenty more years in her teaching lucky children.

We have owned Maisey for 3 years now. We bought her for our 4yr old son who has done everything on her since -PC camp x3, rallies, Showing, mounted games, SJ Beach holidays and endless hacking.

Maisey is a perfect lead rein pony. She trots or canters when you run and stops when you stop. She doesn’t nibble or annoy the handler and will stand all day. Never bitten, kicked or pulled a face. She will be pampered all day long. She will also take a child off the lead, jumping a small 30cm course of showjumps happily.

Maisey will happily be led off another horse and I have cantered down a huge beach leading my 5yr old on her. She is totally trustworthy. Not one to get fizzy when others canter off away from her. She can have weeks off and will be exactly the same when you get back on.

Maisey is the lowest maintenance pony. She is bare foot, will live in or out, and lives on fresh air. She has no veterinary history and never had lami.

Homes will be vetted and we would love another experienced pony club home for this gem of a pony. We are still in contact with her 3 previous owners which is credit to her nature .

Star by name, Star by nature - Super safe, wonderful child's pony

12.2 black mare, 13 years

Absolutely heartbreaking sale of this special little pony who has given my daughter so much when her confidence was at rock bottom. We have only had Star a year and she is only for sale as she's done such a good job that my daughter has now fully regained her confidence and taken a huge leap forward in ability.

Prior to coming to us, Star was a lead-rein/first off-lead pony for a tiny tot. My daughter was more established although extremely nervous due to a frightening experience on her previous pony; and Star stepped up perfectly answering every question asked of her. She's unflappable - my daughter has ridden her at night in the middle of a storm, with fireworks going off all around them! She is also ridden regularly in open fields, bareback in a head collar.

In the past year, this pony has turned her hoof to pretty much everything including:

*All aspects of Pony Club (rallies, competitions, stay away Pony Club camp)
*Showjumping up to 60cm, with many wins and placings under her belt (she has some speedy little jump-off turns in her when asked!)
*Cross Country
*Sponsored and beach rides, both of which she behaved impeccably and was never spicy or sharp
*Pole work clinics
*Obstacle course clinic in which she was totally unphased, taking it all in her stride

Star is 100% on the road (we have to cross a bridge over the M25 to get to Lullingstone Park and she doesn't care a jot). She's not fussed about large vehicles or farm machinery. She loves hacking and is perfectly behaved on her own or with other horses. She will go first or last and doesn't get affected by any nonsense going on around her. She will give your child the steadiest of canters if that's what they ask of her, or she will step up a gear if asked. We've never tried to lead her from another horse but I imagine she'd be totally fine with it! She is also very used to dogs running around her legs.

She was previously proven great on the lead-rein and she's stepped up so willingly for my daughter. She has lots of showjumping wins and placings at bottom hole, 30, 40, 50 and 60 (she qualified for Sunshine Tour 50 and 60 this year) but I feel like 50 is the top end of her comfort zone. For this reason, I think her perfect next best friend will be a less established child who won't put too much pressure on Star to jump the bigger jumps. I wouldn't say she's a true first ridden pony as she's not "point and shoot" - her rider needs to actually ride her, but she will actually teach your child to ride!

Star is fabulous to do in every way - farrier, clip, dentist, vet, bath - she's handled by my 9 year old in every aspect of day to day care. Star will come to call in the field. She will happily skip on to a trailer (loaded by my daughter every time) and will travel perfectly alone or in company. We have never tried her on a 3.5t but I believe that's how she always travelled in her previous home. She will happily stand on the trailer at a show and would be exactly where you left her, happily tied up with a hay net, if you left her to go to buy cheesy chips!

She is so easy going - she'll totally fit in with your routine. She is currently out at night and in during the day (she does like her morning snooze!) but wouldn't be fussed at all by a change. We would like her to go to a home with good, year-round grazing as she does enjoy being out. Star won't show you a different side if she hasn't been ridden in a week (or even two).

Tack (including lovely saddle purchased new last year) and full, quality wardrobe (including some brand new, never used) can go with her under separate negotiation.

She will only be sold to the very best of homes who will be happy to keep in touch. Home is more important than price. She is so, so special to us and we are struggling to come to terms with saying goodbye to her. Unfortunately it's just not an option for me to keep two and we have found our next pony unexpectedly quickly.
