Am I being unfair?

I'm afraid I agree with everyone else, you are getting unnecessary stress, inconvenience and expense for no good reason.

I'd be explaining that you aren't happy with the situation, and as they obviously aren't either it's best all round if they look elsewhere.

I'm sure it will mean a fall out with your sister, but that seems to be the norm in lots of families anyway!

Eta that if the sisters friend is a true friend then she will undertand that the current arrangement is untenable and not be any less supportive to your sister. :)
 
It sounds like you are currently subsidising her to keep her horse? Perhaps you could change the arrangement so she has to buy hay etc from you at your cost?

If it is not her but her boyfriend and her brother who are causing problems, could you ban them from the yard? Do you have to interact with them socially as friends of your sister? Alternatively, you could show them a break down of costs, and point out that if she has to move, she will have to pay market rates for things, so it will be much more expensive. You should also point out that it would probably be really hard for her to move at this time of year.

I would suggest you get a contract drawn up ASAP to protect yourself.
 
I would be showing her where the gate is as its a hell of a cheek. if you are ok with her being there then next time the brother or boyfriend says anything just tell them that they are free to find somewhere else and that as they are pissing you off they can now start to pay for the hay that her horse is consuming as well. IF they want to be allowed on the yard while she does her horse they STFU and behave themselves in a civilised way
