Bryn

9 year old 14hh registered Welsh D gelding looking for his next special person.
Currently out of work as I am pregnant.
He goes sweetly in the school and is bold and willing over fillers. He has a great jump on him. He happily pops around the XC course and goes through the water.
Hacks alone or in company.
I’ve taken it very slowly with him so therefore he is quite low mileage for his age.
He is a real pleasure to have around and is happy to live in or out, with both mares and geldings. He will happily stand tied up all day to be groomed, he really does enjoy attention and fuss.
He is looking for a kind, patient and sympathetic home where he can continue to build his confidence and develop a partnership with his new person. He can be a little unsure until he gets to know and trust you, but once he trusts you, he will do anything for you.
A truly special pony who will make someone a wonderful best friend and partner.
Serious enquiries and the right home only, please.
He has also previously been driven and I’m sure he’d get back into harness quite easily.
He is only for sale as I’m pregnant and need to cut down before winter.

Born March 2026. Courtwall Odyssey. Fully registered with the Wiltshire Horn Sheep Society.

By Lawford Roger who has won many shows this summer and comes from a very established breeding line. Out of Courtwall Odessa who herself has shown and won and placed many times as a lamb, shearling and older ewe.

Growing well and shed cleanly. He’s mostly grass fed but has had small amount of nuts/sugar beet to keep friendly and learn to pen up. Used to electric fencing.

Has been vaccinated with Heptavac, wormed and fluked as required.

Retired older ewes also looking for retirement homes.

Wiltshire horn sheep are the perfect little grazing flock. These hardy sheep have hair rather than wool and approximately twice a year will self shear. They run well with horse or after horses have been grazed in the field, eating out all the rough grasses, brambles, stinging nettles, thistles and more helping to improve the quality of the grass.

Wiltshires are also on the rare breed watch list and qualify for some of the Conservational Grazing grants available.


Lambs available every year and older ewes looking for retirement homes at the end of the summer after weaning!

16hh 9yo TB Gelding – All-Rounder

Lovely 16hh, 9-year-old gelding, a genuine all-rounder with a fantastic attitude.

He hunts well, proving sensible and enjoyable out in the field, and is happy to hack alone or in company. He has a sensible head on his shoulders and is a lovely horse to have around.

Easy to do in all ways – good to handle, catch, load, travel and generally a pleasure to have around the yard.

A versatile horse who would suit someone looking for a genuine all-rounder to enjoy hunting, hacking and all-round riding.

Sensible offers only. Genuine enquiries welcome.

I am on the look out for a reliable, confident rider (18+) to help bring my lovely mare, Bonnie, back into work two (ish) days a week.

Bonnie is 21 year old French Trotter but don’t let that put you off, she genuinely loves her work —especially hacking! She's had a break from ridden work since Christmas but I recently hopped back on her after and she was as good as gold. However, she is a typical "quirky mare" who takes confidence from her rider, so she is not suitable for novices.
She is 15.2 (give or take)
Her max weight is 12 stone.

Due to my own health issues, (which is why she has had to have time off too!) I am struggling to keep the consistency that she needs coming back into work.

The Plan:
Start small with 15–20 minutes of walking/trotting in the school/short road hacks & build up to longer hacks then get her out on the Forest again.

She is 21 & has the usual ailments of a horse who has lived well & likes to pretend she is an acrobat when out in her field (thankfully she does save these antics for when in the field and not when ridden though) & she has had 9 months off so this is very much a "see what she is happy to do" scenario.

I just ask for help with daily chores (poo picking, hay, and feed) & to have your own rider insurance. *

This is a great opportunity for an experienced rider looking to get back into the saddle or someone who just wants to "tinker about" and enjoy a lovely horse.

Aware I am looking for a unicorn of a human, but you never know!!

Yard is in Sway/Lymington

*May ask for a small contribution once she is back in proper work, just towards her 6weekly shoes.

Mickey is a super smart little cob with bags of potential and all the attributes to make a fantastic child’s pony.

We have had him with us, broken him in and continued his education. He’s a lovely genuine type who could go on to do a bit of everything — lead rein, showing, low-level jumping or simply be a super all-round family pony.

He really does have everything you’d want in a little cob. He hacks out, loads onto the lorry and is straightforward to have around the yard.

He’s equally happy living in or out, alone or in company, and absolutely loves attention. He’ll happily stand to be groomed and pampered all day and would love to have his own little person to spoil him. ❤️

At only 5 years old, he still has plenty of potential for someone to put their own stamp on and continue producing.

A really lovely little pony who is ready to find his new home. 🏡

NOVA 🐴

Nova is a beautiful bay mare standing at about 15.1/2. Born in May 2018, I’ve had her since she was 5.

*NOVA IS NOW IN WORK AGAIN* I have been using a professional riders to keep her ticking over.

Nova is a confident young horse who very much enjoys a job, she can be sharp but not strong. Always ridden in a snaffle. I have been unable to ride much due to injury. She would suit a confident teenager/adult to take her hacking, jumping, cross country.

I’d love to find Nova a home where she is able to have plenty of turn out, with friends. She is currently stabled during the day which she enjoys. If you had field shelter she could be turned out fully.

Great to:
- Shoe(hot-shod all round)
- Clip (falls asleep for this)
- Bath
- Travel and load (she beats me up the ramp!)
- Worm
- Vets (stands very still for injections)

Nova has previously been injured, but a full rehab plan was followed with vets and physio- no long term implications. She does also have mild KS. This was successfully injected in December, we built her topline back up and has been fine ever since. Vet re-checked this 2 weeks ago and very happy.

Vaccines/teeth/shoes/worming all up to date.

I’d very happily discuss previous injury and any quirks with potential owner.

Asking for £1500.

Whinny – 12hh Registered Welsh Section A – 14 years – Grey Mare – £4,200

Much-loved family pony looking for her next home.

Whinny is a pretty, kind and genuine registered Welsh Section A mare who has been a wonderful pony for our young daughter.

We bought Whinny seven months ago from an experienced horsey family. Our daughter was just 3 when Whinny arrived and, over the past seven months, Whinny has patiently and kindly taken her from a complete beginner on the lead rein to the point where she is now ready to progress to riding independently. This is very much the reason we bought her, and she has been exceptionally good at her job. She is kind, patient and reassuring with a very young child, while still being an interesting and enjoyable pony.

Whinny is exceptionally unfazed by traffic, farm machinery, dogs, bicycles, prams, quads and the general activity of farm life. She is happy hacking both alone and in company, and has proved to be a wonderfully reliable pony for our young daughter. The previous owner had ridden Whinny extensively and described her as happy hacking both on and off the lead rein. In her previous home she had done local shows, poles, small jumps, games and Pony Club activities, and had been ridden walking, trotting and cantering on hacks.

Our focus since buying Whinny has been introducing our daughter to riding rather than repeating all of her previous activities, but we are very happy with everything we have seen of her as a young child's pony.

We are an experienced riding family living on a farm in the Meon Valley, Hampshire, immediately next to Hambledon North Pony Club, with extensive off-road hacking and excellent local equestrian facilities. Whinny is only being offered for sale because, rather unexpectedly, an excellent second pony belonging to friends became available to us and we were fortunate enough to secure her. We now find ourselves with one pony too many. This is therefore a genuine very sadly for sale situation and not a sale because Whinny is unsuitable.

We are looking for a kind, experienced and permanent home where Whinny will be loved and enjoyed as a family pony. She would be particularly well suited to a family looking for an excellent lead-rein pony for a young child, with the opportunity to gradually introduce them to riding independently. We would also consider a long-term loan to the right home, for the right family and circumstances.

Whinny is a good-doer and requires sensible grazing and weight management. She is good to handle generally, although she prefers a calm, experienced adult for the farrier. She is fully up to date with farrier care, teeth and vaccinations and has been very well cared for throughout our ownership. A lovely, genuine family pony who has given our little girl a wonderful start to her riding journey.

GERDINEN CRACKER

CREAM

11.2

6 year old

Gelding

Cracker is beautiful little gelding who is as wide as he is tall taking up the children's leg! He is ridden on the lead rein by my 3 year old and ridden off by my 5,8 & 9 year olds all different abilities

- Also ridden by an older child.

Whilst cracker is wonderful he can sometimes show his Welsh side when ridden if he feels he can get away with it. This is by no means nasty just rather cheeky.

He has attended pony club before and found that rather exciting.

Cracker hacks alone or in company and is excellent on the roads and bridlepaths he really is a bold pony nothing really phases him. Currently he is unshod, stables or live out (on fresh air) and is up to date with teeth , vaccinations & worming.

This little pony is ready to find his new home and person, I have tonnes of pictures / videos I’m happy to share.

Please note cracker is with me on sales livery .

Rocco is a lovely 5-year-old, 15.2hh Irish Cob gelding looking for a sharer. He is a really sweet, genuine boy with a lovely nature and is a pleasure to have around. ❤️

• Great with traffic
• Has seen lorries, buses, tractors, motorbikes & more

Rocco has never been dangerous or unsafe. He can occasionally have a little spook or be unsure about something, but this is very rare and easily managed. He has already been exposed to lots of different situations and takes most things in his stride.

As he is still only 5, I’m looking for someone kind, confident and consistent who will enjoy spending time with him and continue helping him develop his confidence and education. He really is a lovely boy with so much potential. 🥰

Ideally looking for someone to ride/spend time with him at least 3 times a week, with a financial contribution and poo picking on the days you attend.

Rider insurance is required, and proof of valid insurance will need to be provided.

🏡 The yard:
• Lovely, friendly family yard
• Based in Christchurch
• Quiet and relaxed atmosphere
• Lots of quiet riding spots nearby
• Lovely environment to continue bringing on a young horse

Rocco is currently for sale, but I would also consider a loan with a view to buy (LWVTB) for the right person.

This is a very loved horse, so finding the right sharer for him is really important. ❤️

Happy to send more photos/videos.

Please message for more details.

3.5T horse lorry - low mileage!
1050 payload.
Hydrolic Ramp.
MOT June 2027.
This lorry is reluctantly offered for sale due to needing a bigger one. It has been a fantastic lorry which is easy to drive, good on fuel and has never let me down. I've owned the green machine for over 7 years and I'm gutted to be parting ways as it's genuinely been the best little lorry ever. I had the ramp arms and ramp redone last year and everything was checked over and serviced. I've always made sure it's been well looked after and parked under cover in our barn. It has two rear seats and seat belts in the back as well as the three in the front. Camera for both inside the lorry and reversing.
Still in use so mileage may alter slightly - currently 78,862.

A well grown colt to make a good size, with lots of presence for the ring.
Halter broken and wormed
PSSM tested negative

Black Country
Lovely black saddle slight colour fade in places. fully re flocked in 2025 and rechecked 2 months later. Additional girth strap added at the same time. Just to big for my horse
Freedom tree was developed with your flatter backed wider horse or pony in mind. It does it exactly what it says on the tin offering a more open head for Freedom of the wither and shoulder enabling the width to be wider without compromising tree shape. Very often when a standard tree goes out to the wider fits this changes the profile of the shape creating a curve and often flipping up the back of the cantle off the horses back. The Freedom tree can go out to XXW while remaining flat in the profile to remain in balance on the horses back.. £350 Ono

Ideal
Vsd saddle 17 inch black. D & T tree.

A professional person looking for a sole use or shared small yard. Have run a livery yard in the past. Need at least two stables, not against filling a small yard again, 6-10 boxes in size, potentially larger dependent on cost. All areas in around Fareham, Portsmouth, Southampton and the surrounding areas considered.

Would need to have paired turnout all year, although not worried if only a few hours in winter. Would need to have an arena. Happy to carry out tidying up and small scale maintenance. I like to keep things tidy.

I have had horses for over 30 years, have worked on a few yards in the past as well as running a livery yard. If sharing with landowner/ occupier of private yard, happy to help out with horses on site. Horses are insured and well cared for, I can provide references. If you think you may have something suitable please do give me a call.
