I have had this pony since weaned. I bought him unhandled and feral.

He was introduced slowly to his new life, spending the first 12/18 months halter breaking and handling him, progressing on to daily turnout.

Then after all that training he has then been turned out to eat and grow.

He has a lovely temperament and would make a fantastic child’s pony in time or if kept entire a nice stallion.

He is from good breeding lines and has the most beautiful head.

He is fully up to date with vaccinations and feet.

  • Would Event or make a super Pony Club pony

Twiggy is a 5 yo section B mare... she is full up 128cm but is a fine, quality blood pony. She is very correct ,has clean limbs and good feet. No sarcoids ,lumps of bumps. She is the most stunning looking pony , a real super model! 

We brought her earlier in the year as a project unbroken.. she has been super to work with , done plenty of long reining and groundwork and is now riding very sweetly. Taken to ridden life like a duck to water. She is walk ,trotting and cantering in the school , is popping round a set of fences and has been XC schooling,  going through water complex's etc.. she's been very genuine to her fences both coloured and natural.

She has been out hacking on the roads and up In the forest.. been great with the traffic we have met ( we are on quiet country lanes ). 

Last week she went and did her first little tests .. and scored just under 65 percent in each receiving some lovely comments and a placing.  She was very well behaved out in company and in the collecting ring. 

Next week she will attend a small unaffiliated showjumping competition. She has been ridden up the road in walk and trot by my 4 yo boy on the lead rein....

Produced on could do anyjob .. make a stunning first ridden , potential BS under 10's pony..would Event or make a super pony club pony.. she is a versatile type. Would also be a fab lead rein pony with some milage. More of a leg on type ,not a whizzy pony .

Heart and eyes checked when we purchased but open to vetting.

Very straight pony , not the sort that gets her back up if she has a day off.. has a look at things but never ever done anything horrible  but she is newly broken so needs producing along side older child / small mother.. experienced home. She's obviously green and wobbly but happy for child to be kicking and flapping.. not a sensitive type . Ridden recently by a 10 yo girl in all paces.

A gorgeous pony that I can't wait to see excell in the perfect home. 

A very comprehensive video of her attached...of the stage she is at so please don't ask for more.

No timewasters please

Priced to sell has we have to many and have homebreds to get in from the field ASAP.

This is a really fantastic horse for anyone to build up their confidence, continue learning to ride and progress on.
Definitely a 1st and 2nd horse.

8yrs Schoolmistress

Exceptional mare with tonnes of experience for sale. She has spent the last two half years working in my riding school where she has been ridden by all level riders, from complete beginners who have never sat on a horse before up to advanced riders where she participates in our flat work lessons, privates and groups, with the same enthusiasm now as when he first started her riding school career. She is very genuine and loves to hack out, she doesn’t pull, rush, spook or get nervous of anything, Poppy will hack through the heaviest of very fast moving traffic without batting an eye lid, she is not perturbed by any kind of vehicles or farm machinery.

Absolutely no vices, when ridden, in the stable or in the field and has brilliant manners enabling anyone to handle her safely and with ease, will stand for hours with no head collar or lead rope being groomed and bathed, she loves being pampered.

She has exceptional manners and ticks so many boxes for someone looking for a very safe easy Schoolmistress, with no ifs or buts.

She will hack out alone or in company through very heavy traffic without batting an eye lid. She is 100% safe, steady and collected when ridden in all paces across open fields, regardless of wether she is at the front, middle, back of the ride or on his own, she will not rush, pull, race or try an overtake even on the way home.

She is currently working in a hackamore as she has a gentle mouth and isn’t at all strong, you have 100% full control when ridden bareback in a head collar and lead rope, she is equally happy in a snaffle, she rides with absolutely no gadgets.
We prefer to ride a lot of our horses in hackamores or bit less bridles due to beginner rides sometimes balancing on the reins…… despite all our efforts.

She lives out in a mixed herd but is equally happy to be stabled, she keeps herself to herself and never causes any trouble, she has no marish traits, isn’t clingy, she is happy to be stabled and turned out on her own.

Has excellent manners with the farrier and currently barefoot, she is equally happy to be shoed.
She is excellent to catch, load with the farrier, dentist and vet.

She would give confidence to any rider/ handler when competing, cross country, showjumping, fun rides and beach rides.

She doesn’t need to be ridden every day she can go without work then be tacked up and ridden without any fuss, she is extremely low maintenance.
He has never been lame had laminitis, sweet itch or sarcoids. No lumps or bumps. No Marish traits.

Passes are annual Licence Inspection which is equivalent to a stage 2 vetting.

Looking for a five star private home to give someone the opportunity to purchase a safe and very sensible horse, with so much to offer.

We have a few horses and ponies available to purchase.

Absolute heartbreaking sale but we like to change our stock around every 2 years to give our fantastic horses and ponies the opportunity to experience a one to one home again.

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)

Pebbles has spent the past three years working in a reputable riding school, where she has played a vital role in teaching both children and small adults. Her adaptability is remarkable mare she gently carries complete novices in their first lessons, encourages riders learning to canter and jump, and supports more advanced students through dressage movements, showjumping courses, cross-country schooling, and even gymkhana games. She is a true schoolmistress who brings out the best in everyone she meets.

What sets Pebbles apart is not only her experience but her natural ability to connect with her rider. She knows her job and performs it with quiet confidence. Her paces are balanced and steady, yet she is responsive and willing to work into a soft outline for more experienced riders. She approaches every task with enthusiasm and never displays a trace of sharpness or stubbornness. Whether schooling in the arena or out on a fun ride, she is sensible, enthusiastic, and utterly dependable.

She has done all flat work lessons, privates and groups, basic dressage moves and tests, low level jumping courses and competitions, cross country, gymkhana games she is very genuine and loves to hack out, she never pulls, rush, spook or get nervous of anything.

Pebbles has done pony club, riding club, low level competitions, beach / fun rides prior to her riding school career, so she will return to that lifestyle with ease.

She loads, travels, and clips without fuss and is equally happy stabled or turned out, either in a herd or alone. She is currently barefoot, sound, and has no vices or health issues. Her long-standing participation in riding school life is a testament to her physical soundness and mental stability.

She is the sort of pony that helps people fall in love with riding and continue to grow within it. Whether you are beginning your equestrian journey or looking to regain confidence, Pebbles offers a safe and supportive path forward.

Thistledown Liana
Registered 3yr old Filly standing 11.2/3hh.
Sired by Thistledown Eurostar out of Maestir Liana, her breeding is exemplary.

Owned since a yearling as we purchased her from her breeder, so her full history is known. She is extremely good to do and is a firm yard favourite. She is up to date with feet, jabs, worming and physio. The easiest pony to travel, will stand on the box all day and travels in a trailer, 3.5T and 7.5T. She is never sick or sorry and lives on fresh air. No vices, straight moving and blemish free.

She has been shown at both local and county level where she was unbeaten as a yearling and always in the top 3 as a 2 & 3 yr old. To name a couple; 1st & champion New Forest County Show, 1st & youngstock champion SCWPCA.

She walks out both alone and in company and isn’t fazed by anything. Having been stabled on a working farm, she has seen all types of vehicles from cars and tractors to mini diggers and grab lorries. She is used to cows, sheep, dogs and is the most unbothered pony you’ll ever meet.

She is reluctantly for sale as I have no young children in the family and she is far too good to be a pet sat in the field. She is now ready for the next chapter in her career.

Super Safe and Fun First Pony – Ziggy

Ziggy is a true little superstar with the kindest nature and the most genuine temperament you could hope to find. Over the past year, he has transformed a very nervous rider—who at times didn’t want to ride at all—into a confident child now jumping at shows and bringing home placings.

He is a fantastic, reliable hack—happy to go out alone or in company, always steady and safe, even with the tiniest of jockeys. Ziggy is equally happy to ride and lead, wait patiently while others canter off, or join in the fun himself. He’s 100% safe in open spaces, on roads, and even loves a beach ride.

Ziggy is light in the hand, never strong, and happily ridden in a straight bar happy mouth. He’s an ideal confidence-giver, taking the smallest riders from their first trots and canters off the lunge to popping around a course of jumps in a rhythmical, balanced way. He’s currently confidently jumping up to 60cm and will jump any XC fence asked of him. He’s attended Pony Club camps and rallies and always behaves impeccably.

On the ground, Ziggy is a total gem—easy to catch, groom, tack up, and lead. Children can do everything with him. He’s excellent to load and travel, has always been barefoot, and is good to clip (just requires sedation for his legs).

Ziggy is now looking for his next little best friend—someone coming off the lead rein or just starting to ride independently. He will gently build their confidence until they’re cantering around the fields in no time. He has been ridden by children of all ages and sizes and always takes care of his rider. He may occasionally put in a cheeky, harmless buck with a bigger rider—but nothing that would unnerve a confident child.

This is an extremely sad sale of a much-loved but now outgrown pony. Serious enquiries only, please—Ziggy means the world to us.

Tack and rugs available by separate negotiation.

Baron would make an ideal 1.5/2nd pony or lead rein. Baron has successfully been placed in HOYS Qualifiers, he has also won junior ridden classes with a previous owner. He's well bred and was produced by his breeders.

My daughter is very nervous having had some bad falls from a previous pony, so she has decided to take some time out of riding. We have only hacked out with him, so he is completely wasted with us. He's too nice to have as a field ornament.

His previous owners loved cantering around the moors with him. He is easy to do in all ways by my daughter catch, groom, rug up, load, fuss over etc, good with the farrier.

He has show-jumped happily up to 30/40cm with his previous owners and they said he had scope to go higher.

Baron is an itchy pony and this is reflected in his price, although I have easily managed it with a fly rug.

He is great in traffic. We live on a busy farm. He is up to date with his jabs and worming. Lives in or out happily. He's absolutely wasted with us.

Pentrefelin Sandman – 11hh Welsh Sec A Gelding 

  • TA5 2BA | £7,950 ONO
  • Much-loved, talented & ready for his next adventure

Meet Stan – our gorgeous 8-year-old buckskin Welsh A gelding, who has been with us for the last 4 years as an exceptional lead rein pony.

Sadly, as my daughter looks to move off the lead, we feel she’s not quite the right match to bring him on as a first ridden, and it’s time for this special boy to find the right jockey.

  • Lead Rein Superstar + Jumping Talent
  • Been shown locally with lovely results
  • Attended 2x PC Mini Summer Camps + 2x Easter Camps
  • Done Pony Club rallies, hacking, games training
  • Bold jumper – comfortably clearing 60/70cm with ease
  • Has scope and presence to make a fab Cradle Stakes or MG pony

Recently ridden by a 6-year-old at Chard – no bucks, just a moment of hesitation when pretending to poo! Otherwise, totally genuine and admired by everyone.

Honest Notes:
He’s just started testing slightly in transitions to canter with our tiny, less experienced jockey – the odd cheeky buck/ Cow kick, nothing nasty – but too much for a petite rider still finding her seat. With a more confident, slightly older child, he would thrive.

What makes Stan special?

  • Beautiful paces and clean limbs
  • Super bold jumper
  • Brilliant to hack – alone or in company
  • Loves attention – will stand for hours to be pampered
  • Barefoot, great for farrier
  • Lives in or out, mares or geldings (but likes to be boss!)

This is a very sad sale of a true poppet, who would excel in the right home – as a last year FR, MG, hunting, or jumping pony. He has so much potential and just needs the right child to unlock it.

This little mare has been an absolute pleasure to break last year and has done pony club all over winter.

She is forward going but snaffle mouthed, with a nice natural outline. She is good in traffic and open spaces, pops a little pole, hacks alone or in company and loads well by children.

Temperaments like this are like gold dust, and any little person will have years of fun and games.

Straight forward pony, now ready to go on and enjoy herself.

*please read the full advert before contacting me, she will only be sold to a genuine forever home looking for a companion*

12 years old piebald traditional cob mare. 12.2hh

She has a passport and microchip, she is fully vaccinated for flu and tetanus.

She is up to date with teeth, farrier, worming and worm counts.

I rescued her nearly two years ago with a young foal at foot, she had clearly had a hard life when I found her but is now unrecognisable from the horse that came to me.

She is an absolute sweetheart and loves a fuss, she would stand all day to be groomed and just be with you.

I believe she has ridden and driven in the past. I have been working with her under saddle for some time in walk and she is growing in confidence but unfortunately I am too tall for her (I am 5ft10) to progress her ridden work further. My niece who is a complete beginner has ridden her on the lead rein, she was a little unsure to start but did settle. Her nervousness under saddle is linked to abuse in her previous life before she found me and as much as she could become a lovely riding pony with the right person I really do feel in my heart of hearts that she would be happiest as a companion and pet.

She is very well mannered and good to handle. She happily lives in or out. I won’t sell her unseen and homes will be vetted. She deserves to find her forever where she will be safe and loved for the rest of her days and she won’t leave me until I find that for her, I am in no rush at all.

ONLY contact me if you are genuinely looking for a companion and pet.

NO dealers, NO time wasters, NO day dreamers, NO cheap project seekers, NO riding schools, NO loans, NO payment plans.

Forever homes ONLY please.

Serious enquiries ONLY

I am very busy right now so please message me not call, calls can be scheduled if I feel you are a potential match.

12.1hh, 9 year old, welsh part bred mare.

Bella is the perfect lead rein pony, she has been out to pony club and is a dream to hack. She is good to do in all ways and can easily be handled by children.

Bella does come off the lead rein but she is not a first ridden, she needs a confident rider as she can be difficult to get going forwards. However she will happily ride off lead out hacking and is great in heavy traffic.

Bella also has the potential to be a very good driving pony and she can be broken to drive for an additional cost.

No known health issues, up to date with vaccinations, open to viewing and vetting. Comes with full tack and wardrobe, please pm us for more details. Based Hampshire.


Welsh Sec C Gelding-Green Passport

  • Perfect as a lead rein pony – he’s calm, kind and steady for little ones

  • Welsh Section C
  • Bright bay
  • Gelding
  • 10 years

  • Perfect as a lead rein pony – he’s calm, kind and steady for little ones
  • Super all-rounder with heaps of potential
Buddy is full of character – a little quirky, sometimes stubborn, but always loveable. He needs a confident and capable rider who can keep him focused and working otherwise he can take the mick, nothing dangerous just stubborn and occasionally naps. To hack, he’s great in company but sometimes needs reassurance if he’s on his own. As my daughter’s only 12 I’ve always been on foot and he’s been great. Brilliant with traffic but may have a look if something looks out of place. Again nothing dangerous but just needs reassurance and confidence.

That being said he is perfect as a lead rein pony – he’s calm, kind and steady for little ones and will happily follow his leader. His ideal home would be with a small child with an older sibling or a petite parent who can continue his education.

He’s a super all-rounder with heaps of potential in the right hands. He would definitely excel in the showing ring due to his dashing looks and has proven to be successful in-hand as a youngster. This is a very sad sale due to his rider having outgrown him and we have purchased her next horse.

Buddy deserves a fun, active home where he’ll be kept busy and loved. He will stand for hours with a haynet to be pampered.

Buddy prefers to be in a field with others but will settle if others are out around him.

He can be a little strong for the grass at times when leading him out, I’ve found a rope halter is more than adequate to correct this behaviour and my 12 year old is more than capable of leading him and out from the field.

Excellent to bath, groom, shoe (front feet only) and load.

Comes with saddle pads,saddle (brand new 2 years ago),bridle and rugs.

Finding Buddy the best of homes is the most important part of this sale. Not suitable for a novice unless on the lead reign. Open to vetting.

Lots of photos and videos available via WhatsApp.

Hools Elevation

Well bred standard Shetland black gelding 41 inches (ish) hasn’t been officially measured.

Hector is 4 years old so still relatively green but has done basic work both on and off the lead rein and is showing great potential. He will make a fabulous all rounder with the looks and conformation to go far.

He has been handled daily by a very young child and has put up happily with all that it entails being loved by a little girl including the fancy dress outfits ranging from being lead by a shark to being flapped at and never offered to think of it as being anything other than normal.

Is fabulous for all the daily life tasks including travelling, feet, clipping and being stabled.

Hector has all the makings of fabulous pony and now just needs bringing on to reach his full potential would be a great Shetland grand national prospect, workers or showing or just simply a child’s best friend.

Hector has lived at home on the Isle of Man for last few years with us but is now at a yard in Cumbria.

I have altered Hectors price this is absolutely no reflection on him and is purely my confusion at the current market I thought I’d priced him fairly compared to others on the market.
