Meet Sophie, a sweet-natured mare looking for her forever home as a non-ridden companion. Sophie is well-established in her basic handling and is good to catch, groom, pick out feet, and for both the vet and farrier.

Sophie is happiest living out 24/7 in a mixed herd and can stay alone for short periods once settled. She's a good doer, so will need restricted or sparse grazing to maintain a healthy weight. She would suit a home with similar grazing management and plenty of hay piles to avoid food-related tension with other horses.

Although Sophie isn't a ridden horse she will still make a lovely companion for another horse or pony.

Can you offer Sophie a loving home?

Meet Thunder, our lovely native gelding who is looking for a calm, companion-only home where he can relax and just be a horse. He’s a gentle, kind soul who loves living out 24/7 and takes real comfort from being around other horses.

Thunder is a pleasure to handle – easy to catch, happy to be groomed, good for the farrier and vet, and generally very polite to have around. New places can feel a little big and scary for him at first, but with a bit of time and reassurance he settles in well and shows his true, sweet nature.

Maggie is a beautiful Registered Welsh D mare who has found herself back in our care through no fault of her own, simply due to a change in her borrower’s circumstances. Now in her senior years, she is hoping for nothing more than a safe, loving home where she can finally settle for good and enjoy the quiet life she deserves.

She is a truly gentle soul who blossoms with kindness and patience. Maggie may be a little shy at first, but once she learns she can trust you, she forms the most heartfelt bond and takes real comfort in human company. There’s something very special about earning her trust – she has a way of quietly stealing hearts.

Maggie currently lives out happily in a herd of mares and geldings. She can be part-stabled if needed and, as a good doer, will need sensible grazing to keep her comfortable and healthy.

Phillip is a sweet 5-year-old, 13hh piebald cob gelding looking for a caring home as a non-ridden companion. He currently lives happily in a mixed herd and thrives living out 24/7, as he does find stabling stressful. Phillip is beginning to build trust with his handlers and becomes easier to catch once he knows you.

He is good to lead, groom, and pick up his feet, though he is still settling into new routines. Phillip can be nervous with the vet and farrier, so he needs calm, patient handling and professionals experienced with sensitive ponies. With ongoing positive experiences, his confidence will continue to grow.

Phillip is best suited to a quiet, experienced home that can offer plenty of turnout, consistent but gentle handling, and the time he needs to build trust. With patience and reassurance, he will make a lovely and loyal companion.

Please adopt Phillip

• Trojan is a sweet-natured 13.3hh cob gelding
• Looking for his forever home as a non-ridden companion

Trojan is a sweet-natured 13.3hh cob gelding looking for his forever home as a non-ridden companion. He came to us due to a change in his previous owner’s circumstances and has settled well into a gelding herd, living out 24/7. Friendly and people-oriented, he is usually the first to wander over and greet you at the gate.

Trojan is good to catch, enjoys being groomed, and is good to have his feet picked out. He is also very good for the farrier, and his feathers are currently clipped to support ongoing leg management due to his breed.

Trojan does benefit from a confident handler who can continue his clicker-training work to help him feel more at ease around the vet. He can part-stable if required and will need restricted grazing to help to maintain his ideal weight.
