i pay £158 for 2 horses and a pony! But all i get is a stable (which is big and extrememly cosy) and a massive field for all year turnout for just the 3 of them! There is no school to work my horses in unfortunately, but the hacking is fantastic!
Its 1 yard split into 2 yards.... on 1 side theres my 3 stables and on the other side is 5 more stables. Another good thing about it, is that the man that owns the place does our water everyday, and fixes anything that needs fixing!
We pay £16 per stable per week. Then we have to buy in bedding, hay/haylege and food. We pay £1.50 per week for trailer parking and £4 a week for feeding and turnout in the morning. The girls have to muck out, prepare feeds and bring in at night. In the summer there is 24 hour turn out and in the winter - 5 days a week during the day only. There is no electricity, no toilets and only a small poorly draining sand arena.
But... as I work full time and cannot drive the girls around - it has one major advantage - which is that it is less than a mile away from home and they can cycle there when they get home from school.
£100 per calendar month - stable, floodlit outdoor school, good all year grazing, superb hacking onsite and offsite, new tackroom/tea room etc.
Not the smartest yard in the world, but very cheap for the area.
