Help! Livery yards bristol / south glos?

[exracehorse1995]

Hi everyone, I am looking to move yards and would like some advice on where to go.

I am looking for somewhere that's 30 minutes max from my new house by Horfield Leisure Centre. I am thinking Alveston, Thornbury, Pilning, Cribbs Causeway etc or the opposite way in Failand, where I am currently stabled. (open to more options). I need a well run yard with a stable, all year turnout, a good arena (floodlights a bonus), nice hacking and a friendly atmosphere where he will settle well!

Ideally I need assisted DIY or part/flexi livery or full DIY for the right yard. (Mission impossible) If you know anywhere or places to avoid, it would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Leyland Court is great, but it's only DIY. It's worth considering for the facilities though. There's all year turn out although it's more limited in the winter.

There's some lovely yards out Alveston way and the hacking is fab - you'll have access to the toll rides. the ones I know are diy though. ooooh just thought of Castle farm which is Wickwar I think. if you're on Facebook get on some of the local groups and ask there - you'll probably get a lot more suggestions. failand I only know diy yards but theres a couple of full or part in Clapton and Clevedon way

Yes I thought the hacking looked amazing! Thing is my yard manager can see everything I post on Facebook such a nightmare can't even enqire without her knowing that I might leave, and don't want to annoy her as I want to stay and wait for right yard! I will give castle farm livery a call, do you know a rough price list? Looks nice!

Add your yard owner to the " restricted " list on Facebook, then she can't see anything you post. She won't know that you've added her to the list either.

I had a friend post up for me on Facebook and got a few replies! Has anyone heard of tudor livery? They have a space not sure if the hacking is great. I have been looking online and found widden hill farm which looks nice too, quite far for me to go though!
