Stunning 11.2 10yr old Bay Roan sec A

This pony has been an absolute pleasure during the time we have had her - she is a true lead rein pony

We purchased her last year in the hope of using her for a fr too, sadly she is far to laid back off the lead rein in the school so for this reason she is very sadly looking for a new home

She has attended local shows with us, hacked on and off the lead rein - she is a forward pony on the lead but absolutely 100 in every aspect

Happily pops a little fence and safe and sensible enough to have off the lead in open spaces / fun rides with out any worry

My children are quite competent jockeys age 6 and 10 however we have had a variety of friends children including very nervous ones on her and she really steps up and looks after them

She is good with the farrier / trailer / clip and trim - she is shod in front due to previously having laminitis in her previous home

We have managed her without any issues - she’s on soaked hay and some simple herbal supplements in her feed

She has previously been to the royal Welsh and would easily show as this was our plan with her

She will stand for hours tied up for the kids to groom and faff and good for them to handle on a daily basis

She’s an amazing pony and deserves her next little child to love

Happy to answer any questions - lots of videos etc available

Home is of up most importance as she is a huge part of our family and will only be sold to a home we are happy with

9 year-old Bay Section A Gelding with outstanding breeding.

We’re excited (and a little heartbroken) to offer Friarly Genaro – a seriously special pony looking for a home where he can fulfil his huge potential.


Broken to ride
Out of Friarly Genveave – Royal Welsh winner & multiple Supreme Champion
Totally gorgeous, moves beautifully & has the kindest temperament
Schooling well on the flat, over jumps, hacking alone or in company
Easy to do – catch, load, farrier, teeth, you name it!


Genaro has been an absolute dream and has been with us since a 3-year old. He’s clever, calm, and kind. We truly believe he has what it takes to be a top-level ridden pony! He adores his little humans and goes out hacking alone and in company in the heaviest of traffic.

If you’re looking for a top-quality prospect to bring on, show, and enjoy as part of the family – this is your boy.

We have had Genaro since he was a youngster but sadly he is completely wasted with us, and is ready to shine in the right home. Serious enquiries only – homes will be vetted.

Berry is amazing as a lead rein pony, off the lead rein she would need a confident rider as she can be a bit cheeky by wanting to go to words the arena gate, etc! Once she’s told that she’s not allowed to do that she is brilliant and will do whatever’s asked.

Great to lunge and perfect on the ground. She likes to have a friend with her, if she’s tied up by herself she can get quite fidgety but she soon settles.

Very sadly outgrown, been there done it, perfect confidence giver. 127.50cm (LHC) Welsh Section B gelding.

We’ve had Gleam for 3 years and has sadly been outgrown. Gleam doesn’t act or look 25, he’s in great condition, never had any health issues and enjoys having a job to do and would love the opportunity to make some more children as happy as he’s made ours.

Gleam has done a bit of everything since we’ve had him including going to the gallops, beach, cross country, fun rides, show jumping and dressage. He’s always so well behaved and is the sweetest pony on the yard.

Gleam will live in or out, is barefoot and good for the vet, dentist, farrier and to clip. Vaccinations are up to date.

Gleam will happily trot round a course of cross poles on or off the lead rein. On the flat Gleam has a lovely steady, comfortable canter but does get a bit fizzy and excitable when cantering over poles and jumps. Therefore we think he’s a 1.5 pony or first ridden for a confident child. No matter how excited he gets, he always stops when asked, he’s such a genuine pony.

In his younger days Gleam was a competition pony and jumped some big tracks but since we’ve had him, he has shown he’s not interested anymore and will stop when the jumps get higher than 60cm. Although he might not want to jump big jumps anymore, he still loves to go round the smaller courses. He also loves hacking and is very good in open spaces.

This is a very sad sale as he’s very much loved so would like to stay in touch with new owner.

  • Exceptionally versatile and experienced.
  • Ideal ‘step up’ ride with a sensible brain.
  • Solid training and competition background.

A genuine step-up pony, offering more than a typical first ridden—ideal as a confident child’s “1.5 pony.”

He began his career as a valued polo pony, educating young riders, before transitioning into a successful Pony Club and working equitation pony, competing nationally with success.

17-year-old black gelding who has been with us for the past three years. During this time, he has taken part in Pony Club rallies, dressage, showjumping (up to 40cm), arena eventing, and working equitation.

He is an honest, steady jumper who produces a consistent round, without over-jumping, but will step up when asked. He is well-schooled in working equitation obstacles, confidently tackling bridges, water, gates, and is comfortable using the vara.

He has accompanied us on challenging family holidays, including trekking through tough terrain, dense woodland, and among herds of stallions, mares, and foals—always behaving impeccably. He has also participated in working equitation displays.

He has attended multiple stay-away shows and is happy hacking both alone and in company.

Good to catch, shoe, box, and clip, and is sensible in traffic.

More “kick than pull”, always ridden in a snaffle.

Only for sale as he has sadly been outgrown.

Castlemeadow Kathryn
Allrounder Rising 10yrs Unregistered Section A type.

Unfortunately my 6yr old son is not really into riding, we have persevered to see if he does want to ride and our pony has progressed into a super pony club pony but my son prefers bikes. We’ve done all different pony club activities:-
Shows
 PC Rallies
 Gymkhana Games
 Poles/ Showjumping competitions - won 2026 Sunshine Tour Qualification 30cms SJ.
 Hacking - including Forest & Beach Rides
 Hunted (in previous home).

We’ve mainly done lead rein and assisted (I run beside) we’re progressing to be being off lead and Katie is very good with him but she does need some direction. I’m not selling as a proven ‘first ridden’ and she’s done nothing nasty, I think she will progress with a family or child that really wants to do it. I would love her to go to a family with siblings as I think she would cover most disciplines, she needs to do more but I have no other children to ride.
Katie has been ridden by older children, to bring on her schooling. She will jump a course on her own, we’ve jumped upto 50cms. She’s brave not spooky, will jump fillers and walk over matts, fake water, plastic, handy pony things.
She’s good in all ways, may take a little while to bond but when she does, she’ll be your best friend. Good to lunge.
Not mare ish, has lived in mixed herd.
She is a petite pony, I’d like her to go to a home where she would have a stable, she’s used to going out day time but she’s not a hardy type to be out 24/7.
She’s a bit nervous to clip but I can do it without sedation, some nuts and kindness and she gets better every time. Had Teeth done recently & up to date with Vacs/ Farrier.
Based in Suffolk (East Coast A12).

Tia Maria is wonderful 19 year old grey mare, a true all rounder with a heart of gold and lots to give. She stands at 12.2hh (approx) and has been the perfect partner for a young rider who has sadly now outgrown her.

• Brilliant lead rein pony or a good second pony off the lead with a more experienced rider

• Doesn’t rear or bite
• Has never had laminitis
• Loves a cuddle
• Not easily spooked by passing traffic, etc
• Well-mannered on the ground, and with the farrier/vet/whilst travelling/grooming
• No health issues but can be prone to sweet itch, which is manageable

Tia is a pony who gives her all, whether it’s a long hack or a fun jumping session with a more confident rider. She’s reliable and has plenty of experience under her belt. Tia is easy to keep and handle, barefoot with feet in good condition.

This is a very sad sale of a much loved pony. She has taught her current rider so much over the last 5 years, but they have simply outgrown her. We are looking for a kind home where Tia can continue to shine and be cherished.

Freddie is sadly for sale my kids have out grown him we never wanted to part with him but this pony loves to work and he bored not doing anything

He's small but mighty is what I call him as he thinks he's 18hh he's got so much character

Freddie does suffer with sweet itch but with his rug he's been ok

Freddie loves jumping it’s his favourite thing to do I also think he would be amazing at cross country and pony days.

With the right rider this pony is amazing, he's very quick against the clock when asked to go but also very good and steady for the lead rein riders

I’ve got loads of videos of him

Freddie is up to date with farrier , dentist, physio , worming and vacations

If you would like to know any more about him please ask,  this is a very hard decision but it would be cruel keeping him as a field ornament when he loves to be loved and worked

Extremely sad sale of this gorgeous little pony.
Star has been with us the last 6 years and has now been sadly outgrown. Although we would love to keep him forever he is too good to be wasted as a field ornament. He needs a new best friend to love and have lots of fun with.

Star is a very good boy at all times. He is always happy and always willing. He is great on and off the lead rein.

He has done pc mounted games, showjumping, dressage, and riding club showing on and off the lead rein. Good to hack and great in open spaces. Not nappy at all, very easy going and happy in his own company.

He would be suitable for all pc riding club activities.

Off the lead star would be more suited for a confident little rider that is fairly balanced and able to give clear aids as he is forward going and responsive. A gutsy little rider that doesn’t mind a fast pace would have so much fun and get the best out of him!

Having said that he does come down to a level for those learning off the lead rein in walk and trot it’s just his canter that’s a quick and responsive pace.

Star has no vices or quirks, and has never bucked, reared, or bolted.

I’ve been putting off selling him because we love him dearly and has never been a days trouble, he is such an easy pony to keep. Can live in or out, never sick or sorry.

This boy is so kind and gentle, he has perfect ground manners and is an angel around all children even the smallest of tiny tots can lead, groom, bath, load, dress up and do anything with him.

Everyone that’s meets this boy immediately falls in love!
We will all be extremely sad to see him go.

Lots of videos available up on request.

Johnnie is a lovely, genuine Performance Shetland who is the perfect lead rein pony and is also happy just off the lead. He has taught two 4-year-olds to ride and is extremely safe in open spaces – nothing fazes him.

He has been on loan for the past year to a novice rider and has lost some fitness due to doing less work, which is reflected in his price.

Johnnie would make a super racing Shetland or WHP for a more competitive child.

He has previously done showing, jumping, and Pony Club with my daughter. He is easy to handle and can be led from another horse, making him an ideal first pony.

Only for sale as we have another pony for our younger daughter who can do the same job and he is too good to be wasted.

Leah really is an exceptional pony who excels in her jumping, she has the speed, turns and scope, an incredible jump under her and can definitely bring you home a lot of frillys. She has been out Cross Country training and proved to be bold, great to come back, not strong at all and if you want to cover some ground and pick up the pace she will do so - she could definitely have a good go at eventing. She would also excel in the showing ring with her beautiful traditional Welsh paces. Or would equally be as good as an all rounder, happy hacker, pony to love. Lead rein pony / 2nd, 3rd ridden.

Leah has always been ridden by children and has an extremely laid back nature towards the little ones. Every ride she will always bring her rider back safe and sound, the bonus is the huge smile they will also have on their faces! she has been out to arena hires and as usual she doesn't bat an eyelid at the new area.

Leah is great on the ground with lovely manners, she has always been handled by children and is extremely respectful. Loves a good groom and pamper!

Great to clip, shoe, she’s good to load as long as you have some yummy carrots in hand 

UP to date with wormer, dentist, vaccinations. No lumps or bumps.

Naturally forward going and doesn’t take a lot of leg, but is also very easy to bring back and not strong in the slightest.

Hacking: Leah hacks out well in company or solo, never strong or silly, well behaved on the roads, open fields and woodland. Great with all traffic: cars, bicycles, motorbikes, tractors, strange machinery! In a group Leah will happily take the lead, sit back behind or smoosh in the middle. She will plod along on the buckle or pick up the pace if you ask her to.

School: loves having a jump and has tonnes of scope, a lovely jump technique and will never knock a pole, currently jumping 60cm but definitely shows willingness to take on some bigger tracks. She will float around the school all day long and has stunning movements! Soft in your hand and never strong. If you have a little one that wants to have a bounce around on the lead rein she will also happily be your girl.

Leah is perfect on the lead rein rein and will do whatever is asked of her, she is very easy to lead and handle and keeps both rider and person on the ground safe. She is nice and steady on the lead rein and will help build a little ones confidence, she is also happy to be led of another horse. Coming of the lead rein I do believe she will be better suited as a 2nd/3rd ridden as she does prefer and thrives with a rider who has a little more knowledge. No nastiness, she just needs a more confident jockey of the lead rein to bring out the best in her.

Leah is a very trustworthy girl and always puts a smile on your face, she really is a cracking girl and I cannot fault her.

Shod on her fronts due to a lot of on road hacking, but could go barefoot if ridden on soft more than hard surfaces.

I brought Leah to produce from being a lead rein pony and she has proven to be very easy, I have enjoyed every moment of having her around and now she’s ready to find her lovely little jockey.

Plenty of photos / videos upon request.

Unfortunately no trial facilities on site but there is a track which she can be viewed on or your welcome to hack her out, right next door I have off road hacking over the woodlands with great ground for her to be seen on.
