Anyone in Hampshire? or horse box hire?

[Captain Bridget]

Does anyone in Hampshire, near Winchester probably, either want to go XC schooling at Three Maids Chasers as some point and has their own lorry with space for two lovely horses or willing to split transport costs with us?!

OR can anyone recommend a good horse box hire company in Hampshire that isn't too expensive?

Neither of us are old enough to drive the box ourselves as we're both under 25 and we'd hire a trailer but we don't have a vehicle to tow it. (I would get my dad to drive it if we did.)

We would love to take the boys XC schooling but lack of transport is an issue! Anyone got any ideas how we could tackle it?!

Jo at Neddy Stobbart is fantastic. I have used her a few times and would not use anyone else now. Her website is http://www.neddystobbart.co.uk/Neddy_Stobbart_Home_Page.html

Hope that helps

Steve of Horses in Motion is fab - used him at the weekend to take the big boy dressaging. Highly recommended, and his boxes are lovely. No idea of price though as I was groom not owner!

I can't see where Neddy Stobart is based? I don't want them travelling miles to come and pick us up or something as that'd just end up costing us more.

Horses in Motion look great but unfortunately they're based in Salisbury which is totally in the opposite direction to us and not very close..

She is based in Hartley Wintney I think. When she picked me up from hook and took me to Newbury and back to hook it was about £100ish. If you call her she will give you the price over the phone.

These folks are near Wickham if any good. Friend used them for taking her youngster down to Devon and was very good price and service.

I've seen this company driving around Hampshire, but never used them so couldn't comment on what they are like, or price.

Ah okay, that's quite a long way from us unfortunately!

Equicabs look great and I'm sure I've seen their box around but again they are miles away.

The closest so far is CB transport in Wickham which is probably half an hour or so from us..

Are they any companies around Winchester than anyone knows of? Or Basingstoke, Farnham etc.

And has anyone got any experience with these people? http://www.hampshire-horse-transport.com/
