Based near Garndolbenmaen.

Limited spaces available for FULL grazing livery £215 a month. (£50 a week)

And 1 FULL livery with STABLE available. £415 a month (£95 a week) includes turning out, mucking out, haylage, and giving feed, but not providing the hard feed. Packages can be tailored to suit.

Can pay weekly and no tied in contract, can be for a few weeks or a few months, can come and go as suits. As long as I have a week's notice either way.

50 acres of grazing, checked twice daily, rugs changed if needed, haylage fed and included in the winter, hard feed can be provided at extra cost.

Why not let someone else do all the work getting wet and muddy and looking after your horse , not having to worry about getting there in the dark after work, you will get regular videos and updates.

I Can exercise them too by arrangement or happy to just let them graze.

No restrictions on whenever you want to visit, anytime.

Checks and haylage included in the price hard feed or any vets fees/worming extra,

I have horses I've looked for the past few years that keep returning for winter livery.

Many happy clients.

A great group of liveries , we are laid back, great sense of humour, and leave each other to get on with things. But if you need anything or help just say.

I'm a qualified instructor and have years of experience in looking after yards and training horses.

All the horses are happy and cared for like my own.

Book in now, I take my regulars back starting October until April.

But I'm flexible when you come and go, it can be for a few weeks or months no obligation.

Even if it's just over the worst months.

Prices are flexible, and are charged according to your circumstances.

Well deserved turnout for a couple of days for them to re-set their brains , back in Friday and back to work.

2 delivered back home today.

One who was on holiday the other was with me for training/handling.
Her owner came up yesterday to take her out in hand and I gave him some tips to help when he does things at home.
Very proud of lilly the cob, she loaded and travelled like a pro, when I collected her she hadn't even seen a trailer. And was not keen at all, panicked and bolted out of it a few times.
We spent time relaxing her, and we managed to travel her alone to bring her to mine.
And after just 2 weeks, of doing things with us, she just followed in the trailer like a pro, and had another pony load next to her without any bother at all.
So all in all, a massive success and lesson for this young cob. And here's to her future training.
I'll continue to support them monthly until she's ready to break in to ride.

The best view ever 🥰🥰

. ❓Who here loves a Challenge❓

Do YOU think you have soft hands❓

Next time you ride, hold an egg in each hand and move through different gaits and disciplines that you might do i.e. jumping, dressage etc (hard boiled eggs don't count).

Can you hold the reins with an Egg in each hand and not break one❓

I've been working on this 2 yr old, who until recently, due to no fault of her own or owners, was literally controlling everyone.
I've just worked on little things like leading her at the side of you instead of her planting and then people pulling her.
Her reaction to doing something she didn't want to do, was very dramatic when I first met her.
I had every reaction possible.
Lunging at you with teeth, and meaning it, then If that didn't work, rearing, then pushing you around with her head and chest, then bucking on the spot in temper.
It took a good session with the owner to show them what to do.
And she has improved really well, but still wasn't the best and would try it.
She's now come to me to work on for a couple of weeks, and already she's improving walking nicely at your side, not planting, and the biting and kicking has stopped so far 🤞.
Her main issues arise if she decides she doesn't want to do something.
Including going into or out of somewhere like the field or stable, or away from friends.
So we continue to keep doing those things until she realises that actually it's not that bad.
I had robin taken her to see if she would behave for him too, not just me.
And she did, only tried to stop once, but then carried on.
So I'm very pleased with her.
I'll get her owners to come and try her too before she goes home to give them the skill set to deal with any situation which may arise.
But I'm sure she'll be fine , I have faith in her. 🥰

Training is a lifelong thing and both people and horses learn everyday.

Next "Robin"( aka dinosaur by me), and yes that's very confusing as that means there was 2 robins 🙈🙈.
He arrived 2 weeks ago, his owner just too nervous to take him out.
He was jumping at his own shadow.
And I'm not kidding, riding along he would run away from his own shadow lol 🤣.
Then spin at the slightest thing.
His owner hadn't got the confidence to ride him out and get on him.
I could understand why, he was slightly dramatic of everything 🙄, not actually scared, just more of an excuse to misbehave. Typical cheeky boy.
But I just worked on him in hand and riding with just pushing him on not giving him the opportunity to do anything. And giving him the confidence to just keep going.
And then, taught his owner how to ride him to prevent his silliness, and dramatic episodes.

I took him to the local Penygraig Livery Yard show, with the intention of proving he's actually a really good safe boy and to test him as sometimes he just likes to push his luck.
And he was a total superstar. And came home with a 2nd.
I'm going to get the owner on him out somewhere like the beach or elsewhere out and about, and I'm sure he'll be back home riding out no problems at all. Will miss him tho. He's a total dude 😎.

Storm arrived 2 weeks ago, just to see what we could do slowly.
Her owner basically rescued her unseen from Ireland, didn't know much about her history, they said she had been ridden etc but some people's ideas of riding and ours are sometimes completely different.
Storm was very poor when she arrived over, a few months ago, so the owner just fed her and cared for her. Then realising she had some trauma issues.
One being not being able to get near her feet.
Another, she tried to put a lunge line on her and she panicked and refused to go near her for 2 days.
She came to me, and I knew she was a genuine sweet girl, just traumatised by certain things, usually equipment, having 2 people around her at the same time.
But out and about literally bomb proof, not bothered by anything in hand walking about.
This is just some footage of some of the work.
I have played with her daily, sometimes only 5 mins in the stable brushing her feet.
Little and often and it's paid off.
She was scared of the tack, so we worked on her terms. And at no point have I forced or pushed anything.
Any pressure and she would get very anxious.
There's still more work to do, but she's going home today.
2 weeks was all we said to start with, to do what I could in that time.
And this morning, we achieved what the owner thought was impossible. And she saw it with her own eyes.
She allowed the farrier to trim her front feet without panicking and trying to get away.
Those baby steps have paid off.
I'll continue to work with the owner now from her own place to build on everything I have done with her.
But just her feet and getting on her, is a massive achievement for this lovely mare.
Very proud of her. ❤️
