Any experiences of this dealer/yard please?

Jo Wakefield, Springbank stables in Kent.
Has something I like the look of, but not one I’ve come across before, and now that you can’t search ‘posts’ on Facebook it makes it v hard to find reviews there.

Thank you!

Have done a quick check on 2 dodgy dealer groups and found 3 x positive comments within the last 8 weeks, no bad feedback.
Happy to go digging further if you want.

Spring bank rings a bell with dodgy dealers. Is this the one that scammers are posting horses for sale under their name? I seem to recall the real yard being ok.

Thanks TFF.

Yes I think this may be why I associated the name with a question mark…a shame for them if so!

Also Broadhill stables has a nice black pony, but I think that is Lynn Robertson. Any recent experiences there please?

Springbank has good reviews. 15 mins from me and no negative rumblings AFAIK.

The second one you mention is bargepole.

God keep away from Lynn! There was a post on here a few weeks ago with nothing but bad experiences I’m afraid, search the forum you’ll find them

Patterdale, what are you looking for? There is a ' dealer' local to me that has really lovely sorts. I think they are usually bought privately, then brought on and sold. They are not cheap but are very nice. She is in south lincs.

Hi I have just seen this post. Not sure if it is to late but id be very wary of Lyn Robertson. I have been sent messages from numerous people recently who have had bad experience - negative posts on fb get deleted, horses not as described, very difficult getting money back etc.
