LOANING

This sounds like a hard sell!!!- but it’s all true!
What we’re all about …

At St Brides, we offer our ponies out on loan, to those who are confidently riding and ready for the next stage!

Loaning
Caring for a pony, riding out with company, improving your riding skills and enjoying yard life & all the fun that comes with it!

Forget about all the extra costs and surprise worries that can arise with owning!
When you outgrow a pony or are ready for a speedier one, we get the next one lined up ready!!

Weekly livery payment contributes to the top quality care we provide.
Our horses are all brought in, fed and checked over each day, they hack out and school well.
Ponies all have 5 * treatment; shoes and trims, annual teeth and back checks, vaccines, wormers and veterinary care.

We also offer all sorts of organised fun throughout the year: 2 fun rides, in-house shows, and a charity ball, to name a few!

Fully trained & qualified instructors visit the yard, offering small group lessons.

We have a full set of showjumps & a good mix of cross country fences.
Loaners can enjoy schooling in our floodlit, outdoor arena and working in our carefully maintained stable blocks, overlooking the pony paddocks and tracks.
‘The views and vibe at St Brides soothe your soul!’ - So I’ve been told by parents waiting around and watching!

We are a family run business, offering a very unique type of loaning facility. Structured, varied riding plans in place & safety tips along the way!

We are just a field away from the beach and have lots of quiet hacking, with a different field to ride in every fortnight!

Trailer trips off yard to the beaches, shows, fun rides and local clinics add an extra little something - a goal to work towards, a tick off the bucket list!?

Want to be part of the St. Brides Loaning team?
Message to book a trial if interested!!
We are working through the waiting lists (it can take time to get horse & rider combinations right) but we’re now ready to offer to a few more riders again!

You will need a basic idea of correct handling, tacking up and riding. (Preferably from a riding school, so we know you have been taught correctly). You will need your own riding hat & boots, and your own riders’ insurance in place. A sense of humour is always appreciated too - important to be safe, but not too serious!! 🙂

Real buzz at the yard this morning with loaners enjoying ba****ck rides to the beach, and new loans trialling, followed by a gentle quietness with plaiting & prepping, ready for an afternoon of dressage at Moor Farm.

Well done Connie, Kya-Rose, Lucy, Lyra, Maddie, Rhi, Seren & Willow, who all competed today.

Thanks Ffi, head groom & everyone who came & supported.
Dads were out in force with us today too - fair play to you all!

Riders all turned out so neat & tidy! You rode calmly, making it look smooth & effortless.
No ‘flapping’ or kicking and you’d done your homework with your tests too.

A few rosettes came home,
lovely comments from the judges,
the ponies really enjoyed and worked nicely for you - this shows just how happy & relaxed they are with you all.
Your skills have definitely gone up another level since the last tests you rode!

Hardest job for me was trying not to smile when you all gave your final salutes!
Thick lip, blood blister, smack in the face.
Phrase of the day:
Oooo, what have you done Luce? 😂🙈

Thanks to all came for our popular, ‘Park & Ride’
hiring out the dressage, cross country and show jumps. Was lovely to see new faces at the yard.

Let me know if any of you want the last available session, between 1-3pm.

We’ve had such a busy half term!!
Fun ride, dressage clinics and today we finished with what I can only describe as a ‘HolyFreakinAirball!!’

Organised an event much bigger than I realised, in just a few days!
We had 99 entries! 🤪
Still can’t believe how perfectly to plan it went! How did that all happen???

Well- it’s with a Massive Thankyou to all the instructors, riders & parents of the yard. There was a competitor in every ring the whole time!

Dressage is making a come back at the yard!!

It was lovely today to get calling out the tests again for riders and see them trying to understand them, working out the sizes & shapes of circles!! Lots of technical tips & pointers.
The ponies and riders benefit so much from this ‘disciplined’ type of riding. Time to see them all down that centre line again.

Today we held a dressage clinic, all practising and then riding a test, to gain a score.
Looking forward to seeing dressage come alive at the yard now, after having a taste of it today.

Our leader board looks exciting.
Sunday Mini Event will be the big reveal!
Who will ride again to better their score?
Who will be brave enough to face the centre line!?

Below: A few photos from a while back, same horses competing today (bar 1!)
