How much do you pay for DIY Livery?

£110 per month for stable and grazing (24/7 365 days a year) & grazing is amazing, doesnt include bedding or hay but people chip in & buy together. and a olympic size arena which was resurfaced last year
the person whos stable i got left me all of her rubber matting & a shed for free (there is a tack room but the shed is right next to my stable!
 
i pay £140pm hay, straw, indoor stables and grazing. (our own 3/4 acre field) between me and my sister we have 3 horses. we just pay £80 in the summer for grazing but can still use the stable if needed!
 
I pay £30 a month for the stable and paddock but buy my own haylage - about £64 a month and own bedding - about £30 a month, so it works out at £124 a month. Its cheap but there are no facilities, no school etc!
 
Stable and turnout £190 per month, am lucky i have a big corner box. I spend bout £50 pm on bedding, £45pm haylage (in summer) much more in winter. am lucky that horse doesnt need much hard feed so thats less than £20 pm. £1 per turnout so thats £5 per week, so all in all its about £325 per month.
We do have a fabulous outdoor school with brill surface, off road riding, an indoor school (although smallish) for when weather is really horrible.
 
I think it depends on where you are in the country!!!

Im in Hertfordshire and pay £100 per month and I get:
Stable
Year round turnout
Floodlit arena
Use of jumps/jump paddock in summer
Off road hacking
Plenty of storage

Hay/Haylage and straw is also available to buy from farmer at mates rates ;)
 
£80 for large field which still has grass :) stable, straw, unlimted use of flood-lite out door school. miles of off road hacking. hay was about £3 bale, but bulk buy round ones, as in snow will happily munch through two + a day.
 
£2.50 a week per pony :D

2 indoor stables that I hardly ever use
my own feed room
2 small paddocks, plus am allowed put my elec fence anywhere I like on the 400 acre hill
trailer parking

And more importantly, am on my own, so lots of peace and quiet!

Down side - stables are ancient, roof leaks and not ideal, but I don't use them apart from for vet days and teeth rasping, farrier etc.
 
£15 a week for sole use of a private yard, 2 minutes walk from home,with paddocks,outdoor menage and stable,when we get another pony it will be an extra £10 a week.I am hoping to wangle a bit of hay and straw from my dad in case new pony will be stabled [other one likes being out all year round] .We have access to about 2000 acres of off road hacking at home and another 250 acres in the next village,so are very lucky.
 
Approx £230 including Everything(facilities/hay/bedding/fields/water etc) for how much we get the price is brill. And there aren't many yards near me.
 
£100pm for stable & field.

Turnout is £1. Hay bales £4.50 shavings £7.50. Get free tack room storage and trailer parking. I go through 1 shavings a week, and share a haylage with another girl so contribute about £8 for that. Sand School with jumps but Little hacking though.
 
£28 per week for stable & grazing
£2 per day for ad lib hay
£7/week shavings

Lovely outdoor arena, huge stable, can add services to my make it into full livery if I want, fab grazing :D Moving there tomorrow :D
 
£135 per month for 2 horses, includes parking for horsebox. Massive fields, 2 stables, huge tack room, storage room and plenty of off road hacking :D
 
£130 per month, that includes stable (which is a really good size!), turnout, school and as much haylage as I want.

I buy Straw from where my horses are stabled (as its a farm) so I get a huge bale for £24 which lasts me about 2 months.
 
£20 a week per horse (I have 2 fields, 2 stables, field shelter, leccy, 24/7 365 turn out if you want it & water plus yo on site) bloomin bargain I think
 
£173.32 per month for 2 horses, inc:

- Stables (I rubber matted them out)
- Turnout (individual)
- Small outdoor with floodlights (which I paid for) and SJ's (which are mine)
- Average hacking
- Parking for my lorry
- Large bale hay @ £22.50
- Large straw @ £33.50

I'm lucky as it's just me on the yard. I have my 2, 2 full liveries and my mum has her horse with us too :)

It's a working farm so can be a bit 'hairy' sometimes when bringing horses in/riding etc and they are always whizzing around in tractors etc. Also it has 2 holiday lets so we have a constant stream of 'can my child pat your pony' cue small child by hind legs/under horse/hanging off tail. There is also young children in the main house so it's not uncommon to have a small child whizz past you on a bike/skateboard etc - bomb proof's the horses thats for sure!

But it's 250yrds from my house so :)
 
£25 per week for stable and all year turnout (does NOT include hay and straw), though this goes up to £26 a week next week as we get charged £1 a week for using the lights in the school but we have:
all year turnout on no mud paddocks!!
80x35 all weather school which never floods or freezes!
off road hacking (heaven!)
hay and straw prices kept lower than any other yard in area as YO does his homework and finds it nice and cheap for us!
my lorry is kept there securely free of charge
most importantly YO's and people there are fab!
oh and we have a heated canteen!!!!! very important at this time of the year!
your own personal tack room so no sharing of items and things going missing!

as you can tell I love my yard!! :-)
 
I pay £50 per week that includes stunning overall yard, own 2 paddocks that I manage myself, large indoor school with full set of showjumps, massive outdoor school, nice indoor stables with windows, wash box etc etc also includes ad lib straw. I buy my own hay in. So all in all including hay it comes to £250 per month which includes somebody bringing him in for me 5 days a week.

I cant work out if this is good or not to be honest. I was loooking to move but just cant find anywhere suitable, or that is close enough. This place only offers 1 hour a day turnout during the bad months of winter.
 
Oh man!!! I get too jealous reading posts like this!!!
I'm nearer London than I would like, but £110 per month for smallish stable and turnout whenever you like as long as others are out! We have a sand school we can use but no flood lights, tack room or waterproof storage!! Hacking is getting more and more limited! 
