Our small herd has free access to barns and 24/7 turnout, where they come and go as they please.

Qualified and experienced staff on hand to give your horse the very best care.

Busy day today with winter health checks and dentals. We are very grateful to have had James Marshall from Hambleton Equine Clinic for the full day, completing full dental checks on all of the horses.

“I can't thank Bridlebridge Retirement Livery enough for their help and support looking after our dear old friend Sooty. Sooty has given us many years of pleasure, it's so nice to see him settled and happy in such an excellent environment. Thank you, Stuart Beane.”

Thank you Stuart - we love having Sooty with us 🥰

Last weeks job was baling hay ready for winter.

Once the field for the liveries is fenced, we can accept grass retirement liveries, with the indoor area being completed late summer.

If you’re interested in a place, please get in touch as we will now be allocating places 😍

As we are busy with constructing the indoor area for the liveries and fencing the new grazing, one of our team members has been busy barrel racing.

Arte is one of the residents at Bridlebridge and has been trialling the facilities over winter so we make sure we get it just right for the retirees 😍

👋🏻 my name is Jemma Alderson and this is my journey to the NBHA World Championship Barrel Racing in the USA, as part of the 🇬🇧 team.

I’m a profoundly deaf, cochlear implant wearer who’s hugely passionate about barrel racing. I want to help develop the involvement and accessibility to EVERYONE in riding and barrel racing.

After facing struggles through my life due to discrimination from potential employers and some members of the public, I want to show the next generation that if you put your mind to it, NOTHING will stop you 🔴

I have been selected to attend the NBHA World Championships in the USA 🇺🇸 , which I’m hugely excited and proud about.

I will be looking for sponsors to join me on this journey and looking at ways to fundraise for my team. Please let me know if you are interested.

Thank you to my incredible Arte for getting me here. Watch this space 👀

Just one of our fields, with additional acreage ready to sow with meadow grasses in the next few weeks 🤩

We can’t wait to open the gates for retirement liveries to join us next year.

Keep watching the page for updates and progress.

Places will be very limited so if you’d like to register interest, please message us 📩

Please share!

As a family we are having discussions about fullfilling an idea we’ve had for a few years now, by opening a full retirement livery yard. This will be on our family farm that is nestled in scenic countryside by the river tees on the North Yorkshire border.

So, we want to see how much interest we could get before we invest in new facilities. A retirement livery package would include:

* Herd living but with limited numbers.
* Open access to a large spacious barn, with good ventilation, bedded appropriately for comfort and respiratory health.
* All-weather turnout out area from the barn to the grazing area.
* Ample grazing.
* Free access to ad-lib quality home-grown forage.
* Administration of any medication, such as prascend.
* Booking and supervision of any appointments i.e. veterinary, dentist, farrier.
* Arrangements for appropriate worming and FEC’s.
* Monthly diary for each individual horse.
* On-site experienced staff.
* CCTV.

Current facilities include a solarium, arena and horse walker although not all will be needed for retired horses but if any rehabilitation is needed, we have these facilities to use.

We have access to a local independent, equine hospital, Hambleton Equine Clinic, who care for our own horses, as well as having a world renowned farrier. We are also 5 minutes from Thorpe Farm so can arrange any other rehabilitation needs for any horses with them, like the salt chamber, water treadmill.

Keiley is also the Senior Equine Nutritionist for TopSpec so will help to oversee the nutrition of every individual horse, and will help to arrange weighbridge checks.

Our yard is always full of TopSpec feed and supplements, and we can get any TopSpec products delivered from our local supplier. Hard feed will be costed individually depending on requirements.

The barn livery package will be suitable for most but we will look at other options for those that need a partial/full forage replacer or need specialised care. So we will draw up packages for individual horses.

Places will be extremely limited as we have set numbers for the areas we have available, to make sure each horse has ample space to live out their days.

Please let us know if you want to express interest or have any suggestions for services/facilities you’d like from a retirement livery. We’ll be doing some market research over the coming weeks so please look out for our posts and we’ll be hugely appreciative of any feedback.

Thank you ☺️
