Help with horse shopping in devon/south west

[katherine1975]

Hi. Does anyone fancy helping me with horse shopping.

Looking for a horse for my husband (14stone) for mainly hacking and hunting, maybe some riding club stuff. He has had his own horse for 3 years and has hacked and hunted so would class him as a competent novice (had lessons prior to having his own horse). Must be good to travel in a trailer. Preferably a mare but don't mind. Age 5-10. Price up to £3000.

Keep being told that horses are cheap these days but I can't find any!

Try Honest Equestrian, they have a web-site and cover the west. Might have something to suit.

I am in Cullompton.

I'm sure I saw something that may suit on Leonard Coombes board today, unfortunately I was only having a quick look as OH was with me so wasn't paying much attention, I'll be calling back through on Mon / Tues so I'll grab the details and forward if it does suit, I'll ask around I'm Newton Abbot Area so not too far .....have you tried the usual tack shop notice boards / Mole Valley etc
