Help! DIY livery or field needed in Herts

[bec81]

Hi
I urgently need to find a DIY livery or field to rent for 2 horses in Hertfordshire, preferably close to Stevenage.
My current yard has just informed us that all horses have got to be kept in 24/7 for 4 months. this is inpractical for me due to how far away they are at the moment, and also worried what it will do for my horses being couped up for that long, think one of them will become dangerous to ride.
Thanks

Hi,

Which side of Stevenage are you looking as i know a yard just outside Letchworth which does purely DIY livery and when my horse was there he lived out all winter. Let me know if you want any information on this yard.

Hi Vic
Letchworth would be ok, if you could let me know the name of the yard and a contact number that would be great, thanks

Its Nortonbury Farm - its run by Standalone Farm - just google them to get there number as i donlt have it on me. Its a really relaxed yard, and quite cheap. Its only DIY as no one lives on site. So you can pretty much do what you want, when you want.

Standalone Farm run a number of yards around the area so if there is no places there they may be able to offer ou soemthing else aroudn the Letchworth ares.

That's where I am at the moment. All horses have to be brought in at night, although I prefer mine to live out I don't mind this, but from 1st December no turnout allowed at all until end of march. I can't get there often enough for this, and can't really afford it with the cost of hay/feed/bedding/diesel.
Plus, my horses are already playing up with having to come in at night, they would be dangerous if they were kept in for that length of time, not to mention at risk of injury not only to me but to themselves.
