  • Hacks alone and in company
  • Stunningly Beautiful

Puzzle is an absolutely beautiful pony with the sweetest personality. She has been with us for the last 2 years and has been ridden by my son from 8 years old (he is now 10). She is looking for a confident and competent rider as she can be cheeky and throw a buck and she needs consistent aids when jumping. Further education would bring out her full potential.

* Good to catch, shoe, and load.
* Hacks alone and in company on roads and in open spaces.
* Participated in all Pony Club activities, including camp.
* Farm Rides/Beach Rides.
* Qualified for the Pony Club mini championships 2025.
* Has previously been very successful in the show ring.
* Lovely to handle in the stable - my son can do everything with her himself. 
* Regularly leads out from my horse when my son is at school. 
* Lives on a farm with lots of noise, traffic, machinery and children.

Health: Puzzle has previously shown mild signs of gastric ulcers. This has been successfully managed with veterinary guidance and she has fully recovered. To avoid recurrence we now feed puzzle accordingly.

Puzzle is up to date with vaccinations, dentist, and farrier

Mango is a 14hh Chesnut 8yr New Forest gelding with excellent breeding.His bloodlines have produced HOYS contenders, breed show winners and fantastic family types.

Just started competing WHP this season and was placed 2nd qualifying for ESUK championships . Competed at his first M and M class and placed 4th. He was impeccably behaved considering the class was so large and he was stood for 20 minutes and didn’t move a muscle. Flashy looking, super paces and Chesnut so not your typical bay.

Competed at his first SJ show and placed 4th with child rider. Happy to jump fillers etc.

Has been out to clinics and pony club lessons.

Enjoys having his face cuddled and time spent with him. Is full of character and will be someone’s pony of a lifetime. Substantial enough for an adult.

Hacks alone and in company. Has done more in company but is doing well alone.

Ridden and jumped by children. Substantial enough for an adult.

Same home since a young horse but has to part ways due to personal reasons.

The world really is his oyster now. Lovely event/PC/ dressage pony or jumping pony. Second pony type as needs mileage as been wasted all his life.

Super safe LR pony - 11.1hh unreg Welsh mare


Ref #: 408174
  • Exceptionally safe with tiny children – a true confidence-giving first pony

  • Exceptionally safe with tiny children – a true confidence-giving first pony
  • Proven in traffic, at busy shows & events – calm, reliable and unflappable
  • Kind, patient and easy to handle – loves grooming, fuss and attention

15 year old Welsh mare, approx 11.1hh, a genuine and hard-to-find safe first pony for very young children.

She is an absolute saint on the ground and will happily stand for hours to be groomed, fussed and pampered by the smallest of children. A true confidence giver and the type you can trust completely for little ones to learn around safely.

A proven lead rein – steady, sensible and takes excellent care of her rider. Perfect for first rides and building confidence. Not a top level competition pony, but invaluable for a child starting out / local shows.

Experience:
• Loves hacking and is excellent in traffic
• Unfazed at busy shows and events
• Has taken part in fancy dress and fun rides
• Used to children and a busy environment

Manners:
• Good for farrier (barefoot), dentist and to clip
• Good with the vet (just prefers a confident adult handling her)
• Loads well in a lorry, needs a bucket for a trailer but travels well and will stand all day at a show alone or in company

Management:
• Needs restricted grazing in summer months, has had laminitis in previous home which wasn’t disclosed to us. Easily managed with exercise and restricted grazing.
• Happy to live in or out, alone or in company

Ideal home:
A family looking for a safe, kind and genuine first pony where children can learn to handle, groom and ride with confidence.

Not suitable for a serious competitive home – she excels as a safe, steady child’s pony rather than a performance pony. We are selling her as lead rein only as that is all she has done in her 4 years with us.

A very sad sale of a much-loved pony – only available because children have given up riding and must go to the very best home.

Lovely little Maddie- What an absolute little star. As well as being utterly adorable to look at

For her age Maddie is a complete saint to ride and look after. She is regularly handled by a small nervous 7yo girl as well as a multitude of other children and young riders. They can catch her by themselves, lead her around, brush her and feed her completely un assisted. This super little lady never makes a fuss and is calm and kind at all times.

She is a wonderful little lead rein pony with manners to burn. Ideal to teach any little jockey. Also rides nicely off of the lead rein has 3 eye catching paces and would undoubtedly turn heads in the show ring. Happily pops round a nice course of fences and is proving to do so slowly and steadily both on and off the leid rein.

Super safe out on the roads, in heavy traffic and open spaces. Regularly taken out on forest trails by 9 yo and 7yo novice. Very low maintenance, happily lives in or out with mares and geldings. Good with dogs, farm machinery and most importantly, loves children.

Genuine Fun Pony

13.1hh 10 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. She is established in all spheres and offers a genuine fun ride, suitable for both adults and children as she takes up the leg well making her suited to all family members.

A fantastic first or second pony club pony but isn’t a plod, she works off the leg so would be a peg to much for a child that’s going to burst into tears if she trots forward when asked , 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 and adults alike. 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! She loves to jump both SJ and XC and never stops .

To hack out she is as good as you will find, you name it, lorry’s , buses , tractors, farm machines, dogs, bikes , motorcycles, this little lady will not blink an eye !

To handle she is an angel, catch, farrier, travel, bath, grooming.

5 stage home for this precious girl

  • True Childs Pony

Heartbreaking sale of Rodney. He is a true child’s pony, perfect for someone coming off leadrein and ready to go into the first ridden classes.

He has taken my daughter from a very nervous leadrein jockey who had her confidence badly knocked and turned her into a confident rider, taking her into the ring safely.

Rodney had been placed well in HOYS qualifiers and RIHS qualifiers always coming home in the ribbons, as well as local level shows.

I trust him implicitly to take her into the ring safely, he looks after his jockey and often has a 5 year old riding him round.

Rodney is good to do in all ways and my daughter handles him on the ground by herself. He has a life height certificate, is fit and ready to go out and compete for the rest of the season.

Rodney would also be quite happy to have a quiet life at home. He loves hacking, will jump and generally just having fun.

We are only letting him go due to my daughter being out of class at the end of the season and she has a new pony which is the next step up for her to concentrate on for the rest of the year.

Absolutely no time wasters as this is extremely hard for my daughter.

I have hundreds of photos and videos available for anyone genuinely interested.

He is priced at high four figures.

Based in Woodford, Cheshire.

Sean is a much-loved and versatile pony who has done a bit of everything, including dressage, showjumping, cross country, fun rides, and stay-aways.

He is a forward-going ride, so would not suit a complete novice, but he is genuine and does not buck, bolt, or rear.

On the ground, Sean has a very laid-back temperament. He is happy to stand without being tied and is well-mannered for the farrier, dentist, and physio. He is also easy to load and travel.

I have owned Sean for 10 years, and this is a very sad sale due to work commitments, meaning I can no longer give him the time he needs.

He has previously had mild seasonal allergies during the spring/summer months, which are easily managed. He has also had arthritis in the past, which has been treated and does not affect his work.

A genuine, kind pony looking for his next loving home.

  • Fletcher is a talented, genuine pony with a lot to offer the right home

Fletcher is an 9 year-old 14.2hh full Connemara gelding who, when fit and in work, is a genuine all rounder and a joy to ride. He has recently had a couple months off due to lameness investigations (happy to discuss with anyone interested in buying him), but prior to this was happily doing a bit of everything and excelling at it.

Temperament-wise, Fletcher is a classic Connemara character. He can be grumpy mainly in his stable where he pulls faces however doesn’t bite or kick. Under saddle, when in work, he is beautifully balanced between lazy and forward, holds a lovely outline, loves his jumping and does not refuse. He is also excellent to hack in company, he can be a bit nappy on his own but nothing dangerous. He would be well suited to showing, dressage, show jumping, hunting, happy hacker, literally anything.

When coming back into work after time off, Fletcher can be a bit lazy, not nappy or anything just needs a bit more leg. This stems from the period he was in pain, however a novice and nervous 15-year-old rider is able to ride him through this, and it improves as his fitness returns. Once established in work, he would be suitable for a novice rider.

Fletcher is a talented, genuine pony with a lot to offer the right home. He would suit someone who can look past his grumpy faces and see what a sweet boy he truly is. This is going to be a very honest sale as we are sad to see him go and want to find him a home where he is loved. His price will increase as he’s bought back into work.

11.3, 4 year old, beautiful inside and out.

She has had the very best start, seeing and doing much. She has a natural boldness and a quiet attitude to everything.

Rides on or off the lead rein and happy to dink around the school with a small child in all 3 paces. Hacks all day alone or in company - not bothered with dogs under her legs. Will cross water, ditches, styles and open farmland happily.

Very much an unflappable type and is an absolute star of the future in any sphere.

We have completed long distance rides, showing, arena eventing, mini SJ, hound exercise, lots of hacking and various arena hires - all of it taken in her stride. She adores jumping.

Has just had teeth, back, feet, wormer and clip.

An absolute favourite with my daughter.

Many people can vouch for this pony, she is golden. No time wasters
