As long as it’s good full livery with good care, good facilities and good all year turnout, it’s great IMO. Support that I can guide and direct. And I can be flexible on my timings with work.

Hi everyone thanks for all the lovely replies. I have decided to move my horse to the full livery yard. I am moving her tomorrow morning it’s going to make my life a lot easier.
Hi Lex2009. A few weeks on, how are you finding it? Did you make the right decision? (I'm in the position you were in abd have a lot to think about )

I was thinking of moving to a yard closer to home just for convenience and less driving time. I found a lovely yard but the only problem it’s full livery only. ( it doesn’t include riding my horse) I visit my horse 7 days a week I don’t no is it worth paying that money when I do see my horse 7 days a week. What’s you’re opinion .
Full Livery. What I call FULL livery includes riding and tack cleaning and everything else, and I personally think whats the point of having a horse when you have nothing to do with it.
Now part livery does stable duties, and leaves the owner the riding and tack cleaning, and that I think is worth it and suits working mums and working people.

I had mine on full livery many moons ago before I met my husband and we built our yard. My horse has never been so well groomed, trimmed up, fit from all the riding, or has such perfectly clean tack! Nowadays the yard jobs take over and I don’t have time for all the frills. I love having them at home, but I miss some bits of full livery!
