  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies

  • Actively looking for the best Pony Club ponies
  • Some fabulous knowledgeable homes waiting
  • No fees for sellers

I have motivated clients looking for genuine, kind, quality and proven ponies to take part in all Pony Club activities.

The ponies I would love to hear about are those not needing to be advertised to secure a new home. There is no harm in finding out whether I know of a better home and match. Perhaps you worry about your child finding it upsetting seeing their old pony regularly at rallies etc - then selling out of area could be a better solution.

These are motivated buyers receiving guidance as to what will likely suit their child - not the timewasters regularly reported. In most cases homes are also knowledgeable: simply lacking in time to conduct a search themselves. Most will also wait for the right pony so if you are not ready to sell yet - that is not an issue.

There are some decent budgets available relative to age and medical conditions etc.

All leads will be handled with discretion. Please feel free to give me a call, drop me a WhatsApp or check out my Instagram page @theponysearchagent

Searching For A Sensible Family Friend / Allrounder To Enjoy Hacking, Pleasure Rides & Clinics


Ref #: 410902
  • Full Up 14.2 - 15hh. Age 6 -14 yrs.
  • Confident Hacking Out / Meeting Farm Vehicles. Sensible To Hack In A Group / At Pleasure Rides.
  • Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar Type.
  • Full Up 14.2 - 15hh. Age 6 -14 yrs.
  • Confident Hacking Out / Meeting Farm Vehicles. Sensible To Hack In A Group / At Pleasure Rides.
  • Lightweight Cob / Connemara Or Similar Type.

I am searching for a trustworthy, best friend type to welcome to our kind, knowledgeable, family home. Our horses are treated as part of our family & they receive the absolute best of care. I would be happy to provide references & to keep in touch.

I have ridden for several years & consider myself a knowledgeable & capable rider. However, due to ongoing health issues with my horse, who is now retired, I haven’t ridden as consistently in more recent years & so I am no longer as confident as I once was. Therefore, I am seeking a laid back, best friend type, who does not need riding most days to remain safe & sane (realistically, I will generally ride 3-4 times a week).

We will be enjoying fun hacks from home, attending organised pleasure rides, forest trips, XC schooling & some clinics. I will at times want to hack alone but will also hack alongside my young daughter on her (sometimes quirky!) horse, so it is especially important that I find a level-headed, trustworthy type who I can depend on. Due to us going out in our horsebox regularly, I would like to find a horse who is good to load / travel &, most importantly, who remains calm & polite to handle & ride in different environments.

Our horses are kept at home with us & have all year turnout (stabled overnight during winter). I would love to find a gentle natured, polite character & a true best friend type.

We live in a rural area & although we generally meet very little traffic, when we do, it is often likely to be a tractor/farm vehicle. Therefore, it is hugely important that my new horse is confident around this type of traffic.

* I do appreciate that no horse is ‘perfect’ & that ‘bombproof’ does not exist & I am open to compromise, but please do just be honest about any possible known ‘issues’ as I will not buy unseen & would want to have any potential horse vetted *

We are based in Norfolk so ideally looking for something in or around East Anglia but would travel further if plenty of info, videos/photos could be provided beforehand. I have a sensible budget & very relaxed & loving forever home for the right horse.

  • I'm looking for a horse to join our 2 other geldings for me to have fun on and to continue riding.
  • Must be safe and easy to do, not spooky.
  • Would have to be a gelding, age immaterial, but probably under 18.

I have ridden all my life, to include racing (p to p and on the flat), eventing, moderate dressage, SJ and even polo and polocrosse. But time has now caught up with me and I need a safe conveyance to keep me riding. I ride every day at the moment, but my special horse had to be put to sleep last week and I need to fill his shoes.



Whoever comes here to be with me would have wonderful private facilities, to include loads of off road riding, beautiful village scenery to admire. We have lots of old grassland grazing and huge stables, one of which is empty now.



He must load and travel alone, (I often go out alone) to join others hacking in the local forest. I take horses to the beach to enjoy Norfolk's lovely Holkham. My only problem is I don't have shed loads of money to buy my new best friend.



Any ideas, anyone? Prefeably eastern area. Suffolk/Norfolk/Essex.
