Thinking about starting a livery yard between kintore and Inverurie, would this be of interest to anyone? If so please pm me with details of what facilities you would like and also what kinda price? Also would you require full, part or DIY?

Sorry been a while.. ended up with my horse at a lovely yard but looking to get a youngster at part DIY for a reasonable price (basically just to feed in field everyday and check over) I would plan on coming up twice a week depending on location. Did you ever start a livery yard??

Yeap thought that was the case with East Woodlands. I had my horse there for 10yrs with friends horses. It's fine if you had someone to move with you. There is also Mains of Dyce by the sand quarry / graveyard on the same road but don't have experience of it but it does have a small school. Good luck
Hi, are you still at Begsley? I'm taking a field at our friends farm next door to there. Would love to have someone to go hacking with x

I'm on a private rent at Begsley Farm which is on that back road.

Tertowie OK if you like the big yard and all that tends to go with it. Was there for 5 years from when there was only the two wee blocks at the front, but left when we lost the block at the front....

Have a look in the post office window - the card is still there. And then PM me when you get there and we'll go out for a discovery hack ;-)

Jenny Johnson's place is OK at Fintray - but little in the way of long hacking. Hogholm's probably not suitable.

Hi, sorry I moved away a couple of years ago but I think Brucea is still at Begsley. Great hacking so enjoy!

Thanks for getting back to me. Quick question, what did you find the best way to access the forest? Was hoping to go cross country rather than the road as it can be a fast through road at times. Thanks x

I had direct access from the yard but we were further along the road (just behind the actual forest car park). However, I did an endurance ride where we got access via one of the farms near you which I think could have been Begsley or the next farm along the road. So you'd need permission but that track took you up round the edge of slacks wood, then you could pick your way through to Kirkhill. Your best bet is getting hold of Brucea as I'm sure that's probably the way he accesses the forest.
