Hello,
I don't normally request info on a forum but I've seen some other help provided here. I am moving from Biggar to Bearsden and I work in Inchinnan. I am looking for a livery yard for my 16.1hh 12yr old mare.

I would like her to be either 20min from home or work or both.
I would very much like an indoor school.
I need full livery service due to my job.
I would like a relatively small yard but would consider a medium size yard - up to 40 or so.
I'm planning to move her on Sat 1st Nov - very soon I know.

I have excluded Ingleston as it's such a big yard and I think she'll get lost. Should I consider it?
I have seen a really lovely yard in Bearsden (A&J Cochno livery yard) - with all year round turnout. The only thing is the stable is quite small and there is only a small outdoor school. The hacking looks lovely.
I have excluded Easterton due to poor recommendation.
I am also considering another yard with no Winter turn out at all - I have never done this before and would welcome any guidance.
I have tried a yard in Houston but it has no space.

Please could anyone here advise on where might be suitable? in my time frame?
Any help much appreciate, getting somewhat disheartened....
Pip

Hi - I recently moved my daughter's horse through from Edinburgh area to Glasgow. If you are on Facebook, I would suggest that you post on Livery Yards Central Scotland and Horsey Stuff for Sale Renfrewshire. You will find that a lot more people will see your post than on this forum (although I did get some helpful advice through forum). I went to see Ingliston and although they have great facilities, I discounted for various reasons. If you would like any information regarding the yard that we settled on or any of our findings during our search let me know and I will PM you.

Thanks so much for your reply Heather, any insight is great to help me decide in such short time lines. I am going to see Ingliston tonight and also another stable at Cochno if I can get in touch with Jasmine there.

I would love to understand why you discounted Ingliston and where you ended up and what made you choose there. I have a good idea of whats important to me and I know I can always change if things don't work out so will keep looking if I feel compromised too much but she needs to move by 7th Nov at latest, It's too far for me to travel once I move.

Thanks so much for the advice on facebook I'll do that now! :)
