£2,995 offers
  • Cob
  • Skewbald
  • Mare
  • 15 years
  • 13 hands
  • No vices
  • Loves to jump
  • Good to hack

Apple has been with us for nearly 3 years but is hopelessly outgrown so on the lookout for her next home. With us she has mostly been used to teach my daughter to ride, for the occasional pony club rally, local arena hires and shows and hacking out. She will hack out alone, and prefers to follow if in a group.

She is easy on the ground, leads well and will stand to be groomed for as long as you want if there is a haynet nearby! She has always been cared for by my daughter, and she is easy to do everything for. She is good for the farrier (front shoes) and is up to date with vaccines and teeth. Never sick or sorry.

She currently lives out at night with another mare, but has been on her own and in larger herds too. She doesn't mind individual turnout and is happy to come in. She comes straight to you in the field.

She would suit a whole range of riders, from a small novice to a competent teen or an older rider. She has been used on lead rein. She will step up or down dependent on the rider.

Priced to sell due to needing the stable for new larger pony for my growing teen.

Comes with bridle and some rugs, professionally fitted saddle negotiable separately.

She has been on the busiest hunt meets and behaved exceptionally. She is very genuine and really looks after her rider.

Turns out with mares or geldings. Happy to be stabled too. The kids do everything with her on the ground she is very loving. Good with our crazy dogs. Good to clip and trim has always been barefoot with no issues.

14hh, 15 yoa, LW family friendly cob / ladies cob / Mother / Daughter Share

PC / Showing / Dream hack solo or in company / Lead Rein

Enjoyed by all of the family from 6 years to older adult. Sound as they come.

William is a perfect balance of leg and breaks - steps up or down according to rider.

Hacks like a dream… planes / trains / cars / bikes / dogs / tractors etc, he doesn’t bat an eye. Alone or with friends, he’s happy to go.

He has competed at many shows with us and is always placed and impeccably behaved. He has done in-hand / lead-rein / lead-SJ.

Prior to us, he was in his last home for 5 years as a kids PC pony and mature ladies hack / commons ride.

Lives in / out / mixed. We have 24/7 field shelter and turnout and he is brought in of a PM during the winter.

No vices (except his clumsy feet if you don’t mind yours)

Loads 100%. Take him alone or with a friend to show he’s still the same. Will stand with a net all day. If he travels with another, there’s no bother for his travel buddy to go off and leave him there.

Up to date with everything teeth / flue / feet / wormers

He came to us fully clipped so he spent a year with that presentation as we went straight into show season, but we grew him out as our preference, please see the hacking photo taken very recently.

He is perfect to clip. Now that we have grown his legs and mane back, we don’t clip his legs, they are otherwise a little bit ticklish to clip.

He’s on a replacement Petplan passport so has been registered as 1st January. However, technically he would be rising 15 this spring / summer.

Too much to say about him, he’s worth his weight in gold.

We got William to help me after a conference knock set me back and he has fulfilled that role (and then some) the kids have also been enjoying him too.

Circumstances see his reluctant rehome.

Absolutely no fault of this beautiful sole.
Very best of 5* long term / forever homes only please.

*Inverness*

Will come with his bridal and quality rugs. Saddle available at separate negotiation

He would be perfect for family or a confidence knocked mature rider wanting a safe steed to enjoy showing / pc / hacking.

For the past year, he has been ridden by a small 9-year-old with incredible success across showing, dressage, working hunter, and hacking. He has previously excelled in performance classes and thoroughly enjoys his jumping.

Belle - The most loving family type pony, a good all rounder or equally the perfect mother/daughter share.

A stunning coloured, full up 13.2 Welsh Cob X.

Belle has been with me 4 years, being a riding school favourite. She will wait patiently for the rider to mount, never strong or silly and snaffle mouthed at all times.

She participates in local shows and hacks out through woods, busy roads and in open spaces. Belle will easily pop round a course of 60-90cm courses with fillers and had been placed at local shows.

Belle is up to date with her vaccinations, worming, chiropractor, dentist, saddle fitting and farrier (barefoot). Belle absolutely loves attention, the sought that follows you in the field for a fuss or a bum scratch! She prefers the human company over anything else.

When I had Belle, we didn't realise she was in foal which came at a big shock! Belle produced a beautiful filly back in April 2022 and recovered really well. Since having a foal she has been an asset to the riding school and all the children love her!

She is never nasty, bites or kicks

Belle is an ideal 2nd pony for a teenager wanting to do schooling and low level competing or a mature person looking for something reliable and safe!

This has been a heartbreaking sale as the riding school comes to a close the end of April. Belle could make a confident teenager very happy with what she can offer. Belle will be available the end of April but accepting viewings now.

Lots of videos and photos of Belle on request, along with rugs & tack at an additional price.
