Eddie is a 4 year old unusually marked dun gelding. He is more of an old head on young shoulders type, but he is a green wobbly baby still who can be lazy! I will not sell Eddie to a novice, due to his age.

He is more suited to someone who wants to go exploring the countryside hacking, beach rides or hunt hacks.

He does not require everyday exercise, he can be picked up and left without getting hot or fizzy.

Eddie does not love the school, whilst he will walk trot and canter, he finds this difficult due to his breeding and requires a strong rider to keep him going round, or he will just collapse back to his favourite pace, walk. However is improving in this area.

He is easy to clip, bath, shoe, stable, catch etc… no vices or quirks

Stunning inside and out!

We cannot say enough good things about Bunny, she is a yard favourite, super easy and chilled and loves a good scratch and a fuss.

For sale on behalf of the owner due to ill health.

Mouse, aka "Moustaffa" is a kind and gentle heavy weight cob. 13yrs old 16.2 hh weight carrier.

Mouse has a strong natural horsemanship background and has worked on the ground in our equine assisted therapy programme. For a big girl she is very respectful, and, once you are her "people" she will shine.

She is nicely forward going. Hacks out alone or in company and is good in rural traffic. Good to clip, wash etc. Good for dentist, farrier to trim - but has only ever been barefoot.

Rides western or english. Bitted or bitless.

She can occasionally show some mild stringhalt when coming out cold but no lameness issues

She turns out alone or in herd with mares and geldings and is not a dominant mare.

A very reluctant sale, but she needs a more homely home, with a mum (or two) to give her the confidence and consistency she deserves. We have too many people handling her for her to build that special attachment she is looking for.

A really genuine, super mare who loves gentle attention, grooming and pampering.

BEW

One of the most loving mares out there; you give her your heart, she will give you hers.

We bought her as a mother/daughter share almost 2 years and in this time she has been out on hacks alone and in company and jumped up to 90cm in the school. We haven’t had time to do much more but she could definitely do more given time. Bew was sold to us as overweight cob allrounder previously having done hunting, a little bit of showjumping and fun rides.

Bew enjoys hacking. She is great in traffic and hasn’t been phased by buses or meeting large tractors and equipment on country lanes. She will canter safely in open spaces and isn’t bothered by dogs.

Bew has had some lessons in the school which she tries hard at.

Bew has some quirks - being a bit nappy but gets over it with some reassurance, treats and pats. She responds to a strong, confident rider and would suit a parent/teen share or someone coming back into horses.

Currently is out 24/7 in a field of mares and will be in overnight for the winter.

Up to date with vaccinations, farrier and has an upcoming appointment with the dentist.

Tack included and full wardrobe available.

Blueberry is a gorgeous young piebald cob mare with a lovely nature and a twinkle of curiosity in her eye. She’s the kind of pony who greets you at the gate and wants to know exactly what’s going on – a real people pony in the making!

She’s very good to catch, enjoys a pampering session (especially a good brush!), and is easy to handle in hand. Blueberry is also happy to have her feet picked out and stands nicely for fuss and attention.

This confident and curious 2-year-old piebald cob mare is looking for her perfect home through Blue Cross. Currently standing at 11.3hh, Blueberry may mature to around 13hh and has great potential as a future lead rein or child’s ridden pony. She's a true character who loves to be involved in everything going on around her!

Blueberry is well-handled for her age – she's good to catch, lead, and pick out her feet. She’s been great for the vet and farrier too. She’s happiest in a herd and won’t do well alone, so she’s looking for a home with equine companions and a handler experienced with young horses to continue her education.

She’s available as an unbacked project pony. With the right guidance, Blueberry is sure to blossom into a wonderful little partner.

Arthur is a 3 yr old Irish Draught x by Carrigfada Diamond. He stands 14.2 hh at the moment to make 15hh. He is small but perfectly formed!

He is one that is going to take time mature as Draughts are slow growers - I don’t know how big his dam was so am going by the size of his sire who is 16.2hh so there is definitely growing in him.

Arthur is very sweet natured and easy going. A good moving cob across the ground loose and soft. Loves people wants a fuss.

He has a green book from The Irish Draught Society GB so would be eligible to do the draught classes.

He’s one that I think you’d start to do things with and I’m sure he’d blossom. He’s a blank canvas with which you could put your own stamp.

Would suit small adult or a child he’s a cobby pony at the moment but I know there’s more maturing him in.

Streamstown Ecros “River” is a beautifully marked 3 year old Irish cob mare, currently standing at 15.2hh with more growing still to do. She is a type that is getting hard to find.

River is an eye catching traditional type, marked like a map with plenty of presence and potential. She came directly from Ireland just a few months ago, having been lightly handled and halter broken, and has since taken everything in her stride while settling into our daily routine.

She has been allowed to grow and mature naturally, and has proven herself to be a genuine and willing youngster who is easy to have around. River is happy living in or out, gets on well with others in the herd, and has settled well into a fairly busy yard environment.

River has been bathed and introduced to the hose pipe, regularly groomed, turned out and caught easily in the field daily and had her feet trimmed without fuss.

River is genuinely untried and unspoiled, and will thrive with someone experienced and confident who understands how to bring on a young horse with patience and a calm consistent approach. In the right hands she has masses of potential to become something very special.

River is up to date with worming and farrier and is passported with Leisure Horse Ireland.

He has a lump to his fetlock, so he won't be suitable for a showing home.
