This afternoon I have been to view a livery yard and I can honestly say I can't imagine a yard could possibly be any nicer!
Seriously can anyone actually think of any other facilities you would need??
This one has; all internal stabling which is well ventilated (max of 20 horses), individual tack rooms within the barn, beautiful deep beds, a rug room with dryers and a washing machine, a 20x40m indoor school that is watered every night and leveled every day, a 40x60m outdoor menage that is also leveled everyday, an indoor horse walker, a lunging arena, a tea room, toilets and shower, an isolation/ observation box, CCTV, 220 acres of land and farm rides around it. Oh and sorry I forgot, excellent hacking!!!
Just to really top it all off, they are putting in hot and cold water wash boxes, a solarium and mirrors in the arenas.

It's hard to believe that a yard that houses horses can be as perfect as what I saw this afternoon.

I can't wait to be able to start looking for a new horse as I will hopefully stable it there. I can't decide what I'm more excited about - a new horse or the new yard

It's £150 a week, but that is 7 day full livery and includes everything.
When I work out how much I pay for 5 day full livery and then add on all the facilities, I can understand why.

If I want to go there I'm going to have to start doing some work and stop spending afternoons looking at yards!!
 
Sounds really nice but too expensive for me...there is still insurance, vet bills, tack, rugs, entry fees etc on the top which would put it way over my budget. Very nice if you can afford it though.

Does that include excersice if so thats cheap !
 
It doesn't include riding, but as much use of the horse walker as you like. It might include lunging but I'm not sure.
 
Sounds fantastic! But I keep 2 horses for that amount PER MONTH!

If I win the lottery I would buy a yard like that all for myself!
 
I think I know which one you're talking about & if so it's as fantastic as it sounds.
My friends there & she loves it.
