Hi
Long time lurker here, just plucked up the courage to register and post!
It looks like we will be moving to Brinscombe at the end of the summer complete with equine gang.
Any advice on the area would be much appreciated....
Whats the hacking like? How wet is the land/grazing in the winter?
Where do you get feed/bedding etc?
Good vets/farriers...any recommendations greatfully welcomed!

Sorry for all the questions!
Thank you to all that reply

The 'go to' place in this part of the world for feed, bedding, chickens, colostrum etc is Mole Valley farmers. Anything more than that I can't help as your a bit far away from me
