Can anybody near Grantham help me please???

[dope-on-a-rope:)]

Hi everyone, I'll try and keep this short!

On the hunt to find a new livery yard/private yard to rent around the Grantham area with enough space for 4 horses (3 horses and a pony). We did find a fantastic yard but with not enough space for grazing unfortunately.

Does anyone know anyone or anywhere that they think may have space?? Can provide references if necessary and horses are all well behaved

If anyone has any ideas that would be amazing!! Current yard really not ideal

Thanks in advance to anyone who has any ideas......

Whereabouts around Grantham? How far do you want to travel?

 

[dope-on-a-rope:)]

We ideally wouldn't want to have to travel more than 15 mins to get there - and we live actually in Grantham. But I guess it would depend on the place

I'm probably way to far for you, it's about 20 miles from Grantham (30 mins), but have you had a look around Belton?
Or how about Swaton?

Thanks for your ideas, no haven't had a look there. Basically what I've done is google everything I can think of, and called everyone I know, including farrier, but so far nothing! I'm not really sure what else to try, short of calling random farmers.....!

LOL, I have spaces, but as I said, it's a bit of a drive...
how about this one:

I think she only does part/full livery, which we no doubt wouldn't be able to afford!! Although her yard looks very swanky on website

Ohh, if only I had a million pounds, then I could but a nice big chunk of land and build my own yard!!

Thanks so much, I really appreciate everyone's suggestions
I would LOVE to go to Elm's Farm but may be a little too far when wanting to go up twice a day - I may drive it tomorrow and see how long it takes.

Tried the Belvoir, they do have 5 boxes available but under offer for rent so she's letting me know. Tried the other liveries also and no joy! Forgot about the Buckminster and Welby Estates so will try them tomorrow

Thanks again everyone!
