🔥🏇 Not just your average cob! 🏇🔥

Full up and chunky 14.2hh, 8 year old piebald cob gelding.

Ottis is such a nice chap! 🥰 He’s not your average ploddy cob, he’s alert and active and has shown he’s a quick learner and really enjoys having a job.

Sadly looking for a 🏡 as was bought for our riding school but he’s just not right for the job and deserves a one to one where he can be loved and thrive.

He is very correct moving and has nice flashy paces. Very happy to step up through the gears and is well established in all 3 paces. He’s a well put together cob that would go on to show well in the correct hands.

Would make a fab teenagers/ fun adults all rounder. Loves his arena work, gradually introduced to jumps and really loves this! Equally he would hack all day long, will go first or last in a large or small group and also more than happy to head out on his own.

He does have a bit of a nervy nature under saddle at times but this is very dependant on rider and therefore isn’t suitable for a complete novice. He isn’t an end of buckle ride. He likes a rider to have a contact and tell him what the plan is.

He is super friendly and easy going on the ground, will stand all day to be groomed. Easy to clip, farrier, vet etc. Lives out in a large herd and is easy to catch and easy going. Equally has been stabled and kept in an individual paddock with no problems.

Fit and ready to go enjoy the summer with his new human! We’ve kept on to him for longer than we should as he’s just such a nice guy but really want to find him some one to one love.

Remy - 13hh, 6 year old cob mare.

Shes been schooling with us for 6weeks now and has come on leaps and bounds! She is the sweetest little mare and is really looking for a loving home where she can get lots of attention and turn into a complete all rounder.

She’s not a child’s first pony- yet but the potential is there although with a competent plucky child or a small adult she could be produced into a fab little pony club eventer, hunter or working hunter star.

She is now established in walk and trot in the arena, works happily in a in outline and only ever in a snaffle bit. She is progressing in her canter work but still needs time and patience with this. Although out hacking she totally has it!

She will hack alone and in company although at present is more settled alone. She’s confident in all paces and a really fun little ride.

Currently schooled by a 5ft6 adult and he doesn’t look out of place, she takes up leg well. Equally been ridden by petite 13yr old and has worked well for him.

In the last 3 weeks she has seen the farrier and was perfect, had a full dental - was sedated but just to ensure a full check up- report available. Has had two dectomax injections for the pesky feather mites. Has had a full physio session with VRB Scotland and recieved the all clear- report available.

This pony is fit, healthy, happy and ready to find her next home whether that be to produce over the summer or as a forever partnership. Owner is open to loan, loan with view to buy or full ⛵️. 3🥕🥕🥕.

🔥 Ready to be turned into a super star 🔥

6 year old, 13hh mini cob mare.

This cracking little cob has some potential, great mover in the school, taking a contact and carrying herself after just 3weeks of schooling.

Laid back in the school, happy to carry smaller rider and work nicely. Same on her own as she is in a group. Just establishing canter and still needing help with balance and understanding.

Hacking she is currently happier out on her own, concentrates better and with experienced rider has plodded around our hill ground with no problems at all. In a group she has a bit of excitement to her, will bounce around and become fidgety on grassy tracks especially if not at the front of the group.

She is green and needs an experienced rider to further her education but with some time and in the right hands she will make a fab wee all rounder.

No badness in this girl at all just needs a kind experienced rider to spend some quality riding time with her to get hours under her hooves. She will make a fab show cob, happy hacker, riding club or pony club with the right education.

Heart breaking sale on behalf of one of our liveries- purchased for young novice child and she’s just not there yet.

Lots of videos available. Excellent trial facilities.

Priced to sell- price will increase the longer she stays with us so grab a bargain now.

🐴 Can’t believe this boy hasn’t found a new home yet!!! 🤷🏻‍♀️

REDUCED due to owners already buying next size up and he needs his new 🏡

325🥕 with miklem bridle, made to measure native pony saddle available as extra.

13.1, 13year old skewbald gelding.

Ideal second pony, jumping machine or small adults pal.

He will hack alone or in company and will go first or last. Happy to plod along with a complete novice on or off lead rein and very happy to step up a gear for competent rider to canter along as fast as asked of him.

He doesn’t love schooling after previously being a riding school pony and he will sus out his rider and take advantage of a total novice off lead rein but with a reasonable level of ability he will get on with it and can produce some nice work and carry himself in an outline without much ask.

He LOVES jumping and lights up, he will jump anything and doesn’t get strong or exited. Plenty of scope to be out competing at 90 without question.

He would enjoy a varied home, hacking, pony club, think he would love hunting!

Nice solid pony, well put together and easy to keep/do. Needs rider or person on the ground with some experience and will provide years of fun for the right home.

Available at working yard with excellent trial facilities. Videos of him doing pretty much everything available on request.

Grab a bargain pony now and be ready to be out and about as a dream team next year!

Fab Fun Allrounder looking for his new 🏡

Drizzle is full up 13.1hh, 13 year old mini cob.

He’s been in the same home for 3 years and is now hopelessly outgrown!

He loves to hack and is absolutely bombproof, will take the tiniest of tots, off lead rein, on lead rein and will lead from another horse. Will also step up a gear and hack out with the big boys and easily keeps up and enjoys a good run!

In the arena he can be cheeky at times but once he knows his rider he is happy to work away and will easily carry out all three paces. He’s more woah than go in the arena but once he’s in the mood he’s a fun wee dude that can produce a decent turn of speed.

Pop a jump up and he lights up! Still completely safe and sensible though- he just thinks it’s less boring than normal school work! He will jump anything and doesn’t get fast or strong but boy can he clear them!!

Drizzle will make a fab allrounder as a second pony, he’s a great size to carry a child through a good number of years and hes desperate to be someone’s new best friend.

38🥕🥕 with bridle only or 45🥕🥕 with made to measure native pony saddle.

🐎🐎 Handsome wee dude - Looking for his new 🏡 🐎🐎

13.1hh, 13 year old, skewbald cob gelding

Drizzle has been in the same home for the past 3 years and is now hopelessly outgrown and seeking a new home.

Whilst with us he has tried his hand at a bit of everything, he LOVES to hack and would safely take your granny or toddler out for a wander without any cause for concern. He will hack alone and in company and is happy to go first or last with no spookiness.

In the arena he will happily walk, trot and canter and loves to jump. He will question a smaller/weaker rider but we have seen him work through this within 3/4 sessions with the same rider and end up foot perfect.

He can be nappy in the arena at our yard due to paddocks being close to the arena and uses this as an excuse when he thinks he can. Again though we have seen him come through this and is now not at issue.

Preferably looking for a second pony home and with the right rider we think he will be a great fun pony who will turn his hoof to any discipline.

He is fit and ready to go.

Comes with made to measure native pony saddle and miklem bridle. £4,5 🥕🥕 complete.

🐎🥕 Handsome gelding 🥕🐎 🏡🏡

15.1hh, 14 year old Connie cross gelding.

He is the most sweet natured boy we’ve had in for a long time! Sadly his previous owner passed away and he has spent the last couple of years being looked after by family members with only the odd hack here and there. He’s done a bit of everything with us and will happily give anything a go.

Super kind nature on the ground, will lead on the end of the rope without pulling, can be weary to catch but easily tempted with a treat and improves once he knows you. Easy enough with farrier and vet.

LOVES to hack! He will hack all day long, alone or in company, first or last. Alert but not spooky and happily steps out without needing pushed on. Lovely steady and rhythmical canter that you can sit to all day.

He is green in the school but again no badness, will try to canter rather than trot but with some time and patience could go nicely and is always safe.

Can be slightly impatient when asked to stop to open gates or chat etc with rider on board so wouldn’t suit a compete novice as does need someone confident enough to not be worried by fidgeting.

Genuine chap here looking for a forever 🏡

🐎🥕 Hacking 🏡 sought 🥕🐎

14hh, 13yr old coloured mare.

This little mare has been with us for two months and has been put through her paces. She has been relatively uncomplicated but is switched on and will avoid hard work if she gets the chance therefore not suitable for a complete novice.

With us she has hacked alone and in company, been first and last. Schooled alone and in groups. Hacking she prefers company and schooling she is better alone! 🙈

Selling with an easy going hacking home in mind as she has had a hard past and doesn’t have the best confirmation so don’t think she would stand up to sustained hard work either mentally or physically!

Sweet mare who can be nervous but enjoys someone spending time with her and would plod along hacking behind a pal all day long without question.

Priced to sell as owner giving up and she needs a new home sooner rather than later.
