A huge thank you to everyone who came along to our Christmas show — it was a great night and we loved sharing it with you all! Your support really means so much. 🎄✨ Also a huge thanks to everyone who helped setup, get ponies ready and tidied up at the end of the night!

We have a couple of ponies with space to part share in the new year! We are happy to provide some support to sharers getting started with how to handle the horses, grooming, tacking up etc if you've never had to do any of this before or maybe just aren't too confident about it. This is ideal for people looking to get more hands on experience around horses without the commitment involved in full time ownership.

Spaces available are as follows:
ROO for Sunday PM
PEPPER for Sunday AM
PHOEBE for Sunday AM
PIXIE for Saturday AM

Please fill out an enquiry form on our website www.castlemainsfarm.co.uk to find out more about how horse sharing with us works and meet the ponies.

If you’re interested, please fill out the form on our website and we’ll get back to you soon. We’re excited to find the right match for Splash!

Wee road trip today to take Sansa off to her new home! Felt so lucky to see these wild deer running alongside the car and then off up the hill! Just incredible!

Think I might have lost my horse to Nieve 🤣 #

If only clipping was actually this fast 🤣😭 Clipping their thick coat off helps keep them cool and comfortable for working, keeps sweat build up away and means they dry off faster after working and they always look smarter without the wooly thellwell pony fluff!
