Exactly what we've been offered on the other half of the field. Farmer does the farming and we get a % of the haylage. He does this for several other people we know with no issues or drama.

thank you.

Thank you for your advise. Another good point Cheers

Thanks for the advice

Sorry for ignoring you ester. Thank you for your reply Paying for livery isn't an issue. We wouldn't want the other person off the field in winter and there would be room if they had two horses To start with tracks would be soft so no use in winter. But the other part of the field would be...

Er no. I'm very happy having another piece of land in our pensions portfolio to balance it. I have a farmer willing to farm the land which would be no work for me, just a small return on the land My wife would like a paddock. I'm here to see if what she wants is workable. Its looking like...

Thanks for the input. We'd still need someone to look at the ponies in the winter though.

Thanks for the input. I think we'd leave it up to the other person wether they used the land in winter. My wife wouldn't feel comfortable going to the field in the dark, so I don't think its fair to expect the other person to go for our horse.
