Our Story
Abbotts View Livery is a combined track and equi-central system hybrid that allows your horse to live out in a herd 24/7 all year round, with free choice and careful management of grass intake. We offer part, full and retirement livery packages.
The 'traditional' way of keeping horses (shod, stabled and turned out onto lush grass) that has been performed for many years needs addressing. For some horses, this system ‘works’, but for most, this has big and negative impacts on their health and well-being (think obesity, boredom, weaving, wind sucking, pacing, door kicking, and other stress related behaviours). We need a way of keeping horses that provides more turn-out, decreased behavioural problems, more movement and better management of the high sugar and starch grasses of England that are detrimental to the health of the majority of todays horses (think EMS, Laminitis, obesity, cushings).
Being able to keep horses living out 24/7, year round, whilst still managing grass intake and your horses mental and physical well-being is a huge task, wether your horse is retired or in full ridden work. A track system is a new and exciting way of keeping horses that provides all of these things, and I believe, is the key to having mentally and physically healthier horses.
So after a lots of research, budgeting, planning and dreaming my vision of running a yard came to fruition! I feel so excited to be able to create a livery environment that I dreamed about for me and my horses, and I'd love to share it with you and your equine partner.
My mission is to create a livery yard for like-minded people where their horses are free to express their natural behaviours and is a place of retreat, where people challenge themselves to build on their relationships with their horses and offer encouragement, guidance and support to one another
