Just wondering what prices you all pay for your livery and what services you get for what you pay?

I know that it depends on the area, but just wanted to compare a few.......

Thanks
 
Essex (inside M25)

£120 per month for DIY - stable and field.
£15 per month lorry storage.

Hay & Bedding extra (and crap and expensive

)
 
I pay £30 a week DIY but this includes putting breakfast in, turnout in morning and the usual stable, grazing, use of floodlit school.

If I need day livery which includes m/out, t/out/ bring in, feeds made up, haynets made up, water, rug change this is £7.50 per day.

Hope this helps.
 
I pay £60 a month for Amber- but because I do the horses in the morning (feed, turn out and muck out) otherwise it would be £120. Amber is brought in and fed etc for me in the evenings. I'm in Hampshire.

I pay for feed,hay and bedding (although some feed is split between 2 or 3 of us eg sugarbeet).

Old yard in Kent used to be £20 a week DIY (extra for turnout and you needed to ask another livery to do you horse for the day when nessecary!!).
 
I now rent a field but before that i was at a few livery years in the area, first i was at was £15 a week and was just a stable and 5 hours turnout a day, tack room and a little storage space for hay feed and bedding.

Next was £25 a week and was a stable 24 hours turnout in summer if wanted and in at night from around end oct to end april, and 1 haynet a day as big as you could fill, a school, toilets and a shower feed room place to hang rugs, tack room and another room for grooming kits etc.

Then i paid £24 a week for a small stable very limited turnout (with was done by the yard as they turned out in pairs when they felt like it) haylege a school tea room and a locker for tack feed ect. but horse was in for such a long time i paid an extra £10 for shavings more than i would have done normaly, and horse got so stiff it was no fun anymore seeing him bored out of his mind and got so expensive it ended that i had to sell him.
 
I have mine at a yard that was only built in May last year, i have use of a 20x40 indoor school, a 40x60 outdoor, four fields for grazing, tack room, wash box, showers and kitchen for me

and includes stable, all bedding, hay and feed, and shoes done every 4-6weeks and worming for £260 a month.

He is on woking livery though, buuuuutttttt, the best thing is that he is only used for an 1hour a day mon-fri and as he is not a novice ride only experienced people get to ride him so i dont think it is to bad

i pay 130 per month which includes stable, fab grazing, hay/haylage and straw. Use of outdoor floodlit school with sj's ect, gallops loads of off road riding incl woods and hacking round here is fab. YO does late night feed, changes rug and turns out for me in morning which i think is an extra 2 pound a day.
 
£120 a month for assisted diy. They do both of them everymorning, and i also have my own paddock. Got indoor school, outdoor school, lunge pen, free lorry packing, my own tack room and feed room. It is really good.
 
£15 a week for what ever i put in my field got to stables 2 automatic water thingy at each end of the field (one of them has a tap aswell incase of freezing and that)and i can borrow a little paddock for no extra charge if the grass gets low because he doen't like the field getting muddy and hes a loverly chap put electricity and a tap by my stable because i was having to bucket my water from the tap at the bottom oh and he also built an area on the side where i store my hay shavings feed bits of tack aww bless him the other day he offered to put a lock on it if i wanted to put my saddle in (i said he was ok cuz i would feel safer with it at home but the thought was there!)
 
atm £80 per month for stable & 700 acres of grazing

Lancashire. £17 a week DIY livery stable and grazing. 2 fields per 2 horses to rotate. use of floodlit sand school 30 x 30. Summer jumping field. Great hacks. 5 mins from good well attended local show. Only downs are winter turnout is just one mud field about 2 foot deep in mud and you can't turnout in the paddock. But other than that it's great and half a mile away from my house.

Hells Bells! Have you got a mountain there? I sincerely hope you don't have to hunt for your horse on all of that every time you want to ride

Lucky you, sounds like great riding.

Whoops, forgot to answer the question.
In Wales, on DIY, I had a stable/hay shed/use of outdoor arena/generator for electricity/kitchen/portaloo. No charge for trailer/lorry parking. Bought all hay/bedding/feed etc. We paid 6 pounds a week per horse. Land (about 30 acres) was a bog that a water buffalo would feel at home on, the only water was a hosepipe stuck in a river which dried up in the summer and froze in the winter, and for the last 6 months I was there the arena was only half covered because they'd taken the surface up before they had funds to replace it. Actually a great place to be, I was there for 8 years and most of the time was very happy there. You get what you pay for, and because the tack (livery) never went up we couldn't afford to do a lot of work on the place.
 
I pay £20 p/Week DIY which includes stable, 24/7 T/O in summer, use of a small T/O paddock in winter. Indoor school (when not in use by the riding school), outdoor school, SJs, free trailer parking etc. However in winter you either have to buy your own hay/straw and store off site or buy theirs which is £11 p/w for haylage and £9 p/w for straw.

There is a horsewalker and extra tasks can be performed by the staff and it is a qualifying venue for a lot of unaffiliated SJ competitions so there are benefits.
