How much do you pay for Full Livery and what do you get for your money? Really interested to know what part of the world you are in too? Thankies!
 
Just moved from a lovely livery yard.

You had to buy in all feed, hay and bedding
They did the horse mon- friday, you had to do it at weekends
Paid £45 week for stable and arena
£40 week for muck out/ turnout mon-fri

So approx £120 week, for mon-fri livery

Extras were:
Hire of dressage arena
Soleruim
Walker
Main pulling/ clipping
exercising
and obvious ones of vet, farrier, supplements

We are south of Cambridge
 
£85 a week in NOrthumberland, For that you get hay, straw, feed, muck out 7 days a week (altho I like to do it weekends), use of indoor school, croos country course, holding for vet/blacksmith, locked and alarmed tackroom, nice fields and fab hacking. Also owners on-site which means they are checked all the time - and hayed last thing at night too. And only one other livery so it's great!
 
Im not on full livery but at our yard i think its £58 a week. thats muck out 7 days, horse fed, rugs changed, put out and brought in. They are fed standard mix and chaff - if you want supplements you can buy them yourself and the staff will add them to feeds for you.
Also can pay extra to
have clipped,
mane/ tail pulled,
held for farrier/ vet,
to book the arena (so no-one else can come in apart from you)
Im in West Yorkshire
 
If I was on full livery it would cost approx £85 per week this is a yard in Lancashire with very good facilites e.g. indoor school and very large floodlit menage etc.
 
We now pay £110pw full livery for a lovely small yard in South Midlands - large floodlit arena, generous with turnout, reasonable hacking and very nice indoor yard with washbox.
Best of all the horses get serious TLC and individual attention - and my mare would want me to stress this - ad lib hay!
A good arena plus the right attitude to fit competition horses were our main criteria and we've been lucky to find both.
 
We are in Surrey and Full Livery (Feed, Bed, Riding, Mucking out and grroming) is usually around £650 - £700 p/m

Part livery which doesn't include riding or grooming more like £500-£550 p/m

Extra for additonal bedding, supplements, worming clipping etc.
 
£90 a week. Includes BI/TO, Muck out, straw, haylage, hard feed.
South Oxon yard, all year turnout although not much grass at moment, large floodlit school with rubbish surface
 
At my yard it is £140 a week, includes all feed, bedding and hay (though supplements or special feed are extra), grooming daily, turnout a few times a week, muck out, skip out, hay, feed, change rugs etc and use of the indoor or large outdoor school. Riding, trimming, clipping etc are extra.

This is in Surrey.
 
GRRRRRRR

Sorry, but this really narks me.

Full livery is the term for EVERYTHING including RIDING/EXERCISING.

Everything without riding/exercise is PART LIVERY.

Sorry
