Cost of building a new yard

[Eventer1104]

Hey,
Im wondering if anyone has recently built equestrian facilities and if so, at what cost?
Im planning on building a 25x45 arena and 5-7 stables. Would also need tackroom and haybarn.
if anyone has done similar tips/rough pricing would be much appreciated
TIA

It depends on the quality of build and finish / school surface etc.

£100-£150k comfortably

Most brands will give you a guide on their websites

For insurance purposes I had to cost up stables (no arena) and it was working out about £5k per stable. You could probably get them for less if someone is doing a larger build for you. Tackroom was broadly the same as a stable albeit not one the insurance company considered secure enough to store tack in. If you have a look at some of the wooden stable providers you can get online quotes to give you an idea. Brick built obviously more pricey.

Haybarn was a simple structure and around £10k (basic wooden construction, wooden walls 3 sides, metal sheet roof, concrete floor).

I wouldn't be surprised if its all shot up a bit now though with materials prices going through the roof.

Depends how you build stables… say about 60k for the arena (if you are on a flattish site) and stables if wooden about 5k per box — if you want a steel portal building with internal stables then this would last longer but be much more expensive in the short term

I had a 2 stable, open shelter and corner storage - 12x24 and tack room built last September for 13k. Then groundwork’s with concrete pad, road planings area was another 12k.

Groundworks and water and electricity basically doubled the cost of mine, ( no arena - couldn't get planning permission)
