Hi, the stable has very good facilities- two indoor arenas, 110 acres of hacking, a walker, loackable tackrooms etc! I have owned two horses before in Belgium, but since the prices are different there I wanted to know what you guys pay- we didn't get bales at my previous yard but slices of hay...

In the West Midlands- Coventry :) I know, mostly people I know say they pay around 3-4 pounds per bale of hay and 2 pounds per straw bale. Thanks for the figures- I thought it would be around that price :)

So, having never lived in the UK before I'm quite confused about the prices here- I've found a nice yard 20 min cycle away from uni and as I'm planning on buying a horse In September I've been looking at prices. The yard has quoted me the following: DIY livery- 32 per week Hay- 5.75 per bale...

Also, would it be worth to transport a horse over to Belgium for the summer (3 months) and then back or would it be better to put the horse on a holiday livery within the UK? Thanks!

Hi, I'm looking for a livery yard/stables to place my horse in as of October, does anyone know any livery yards near university of Warwick/in Coventry? Preferably one that is not too expensive and can do assisted DIY/part livery! As I will mostly be doing hacking, light schoolwork it is not...
