i must be very lucky then :

i pay £45 a week which includes/hay/straw/shavings/indoor/outdoor/xc course/and a fab yard owner. if you break down the £45 its about right for a DIY yard with just stable n grazing.

tbh if your that unhappy rent your own land...... i almost did before i found this yard....

There are no yards around here with those facilities and that much included in a price like that!! You are very lucky and I am slightly jealous lol

I am having a look about because if I found somewere for the right price which was a bit bigger and has a few more facilites I would look into starting livery as a lot of people around my way are looking for yards right now!
It is the worst time of year to be looking so for now I am just biting my lip until something comes up!!

When I first bought Caddy I was in livery we stayed one month! a teenager was hitting Caddy on the head with a head collar in the field because he was following her. I went out and about and generally just asked at farms and any land I saw that was grazing but was empty I asked around who it belonged to. That was how I had my first place 5 acres and 4 stables for just me and my friend, then I moved where I am now I am on my own with my 2 horses, I have been there for 7 years....... My advice would be get out there and have a look and if you see anything that looks like it was grazing land find out who it belongs to and go and ask. You will get loads of people saying no but you could end up with a yes

Well good news!! The yard I was at years and years ago with my ponies has had a space come up!! Better yet the whole yard has been re-done and it is the cheapest place around and 2 mions from home!
As much as I hate yards I never ever had any problems there and had so many great recommendations about it this time around! When I went and had a look all of the liveries were very friendly and chatty, Always a good start!

It has loaddsssss of grass and paddocks that have been left all year to be used as winter paddocks. The way I am looking at it is that all the time I was there before I had NO problems at all so no need to have this time! It is not a yard with lots of competition between liveries as everyone is there to have fun and get along and one of the liveries even offered to come and get her!

Cant wait :-) Sooooo happy that my luck has finally sprung into actions!!

Well Done... Hope you are both settled in soon and having fun.... Pamx

Now you can relax and enjoy your horse and have some fun

I cant wait :-) Il will keep you all posted, will be moing at end of month!!

Due to living on the Isle of Man we are very limited to where we can stable our horses.

Luckily, I keep my horse with 3 others on private livery at stables about 5 miles from my house. I own 1, Keren owns 2 and the owner loans 1, so it's really quiet and non-bitchy!!

We have 8 indoor American Barn style stables for 4 horses, 1 very big tack room, huge floodlit outdoor ménage, brilliant hacking and lots of flat turnout. All that for £25/week.

Disney loves it where he is and I've never seen him so relaxed.

I would always recommend looking round for a stable where you and your horse are happy
