*Full set of Sj's
*Horsewalker
*Use of wash box
*Lorry parking
*stable and turnout

Its hard to say, sounds like alot of facilities, depends on where you are in the country, but i should think about 30quid a week

I may be way off but i have no facilities to speak of and am basing it on that and my previous yards

KatB, so how much is the yard in question charging.

I couldn't possibly guess as being down south (Hampshire) things are always dearer!
 
Well id say whatever it is, it sounds lovely...

Use of outdoor school
Use of indoor school for addtional £25 a month
Use of SJ's
Lunging Pen
Hay and Straw included
XC course for £10 an hour
 
Hi Kat,
I'm just down the A46 from you we have the following
outdoor (amazing) school
individual paddocks
Cross country course
show jumps
wash box
really nice yard not too much mud.
I pay £25 (would be £30 if I only had one horse) a week, £5 extra for lorry parking.
 
RedAdair and OP, where exactly are these wonderful yards you speak of?! I am looking for something very similar so would appreciate a nod in the right direction...
 
I'm at a yard that sounds very similiar - I pay approximately £135 a month (including feed and bedding) for DIY livery, which works out approximately £33 a week. I'm South-East England.
 
Around here (Wilts) you'd be looking at around £50 per week for a yard with those kinds of facilities. My instructor charges £50 a week DIY for exactly the same set up, and another yard close by are £55 p/w.

Sorry went off line until now! Yard in question is a private yard where we have been offered livery (we are very lucky!) its £30 a week, its a little bit further afield than we wanted, but otherwise is pretty much perfect, thanks for all the replies
