Just wondering what people's livery prices were and what that includes, full/part/DIY, and what area of the country you are in? Thanks!
 
Scotland, near Edinburgh. 70 a month grass livery for each of my 13.3 ponies. 70 a month for huge stable that they share on the rare occassion that they stay in. Nice outdoor school, as much hay and straw as I want including round bales in the field in winter when needed. Lockable tack room with firdge, kettle, toaster etc, feed storage area, nice yard with lots of tie ups, toilet, lighting, electricity.

Where about are you? PM if you like x
 
Bedfordshire

£25 a week - so works out as £108 each month

Huge stable in american style barn
floodlit fields for bringing in at night
plenty of paddock space
24/7 turn out through out year
manege
cctv and security lighting at stables
secure tack and feed room
loads of local off road hacking
electricity and mains water to the stables

I absolutely adore where we are
 
Cumbria - £27 a week for field and stable, excellent schools, cross country course and brill hacking, £10 a week ad lib hay/haylage and extras are something like £1.50 for rug change/turnout etc
 
I'm in the midlands and pay £29 per week for DIY. I get stable and field - hay is available at £5/bale but I buy my own haylage in. Excellent out-riding but no ménage.
 
I'm in lanarkshire and pay £85 per week for full livery. It's an farm so not beautiful but functional and kept spotless. Has ample all year turnout and outdoor. I supply my own hard feed.
 
I'm so jealous at some of these prices!!
I thought we weren't too bad til then.....
Am in Aberdeen NE Scotland
£50 per week all year round including haylage(to be fair pretty good haylage).Facilities include use of a indoor and outdoor school,outdoor jumping paddock and small course of basic x country jumps,horse shower(£1 for 20mins approx) yard and schools have lights - set on a timer for yard.Again to be honest its all kept spic and span and repaired as needed .These are for sole use of 40 horses ( less owners than horses as we have at least 6 multiple owners here)- no shows doesn't hire out schools etc.Hackings not great so thats a down side.Oh and totally DIY buy own bedding + feed etc.
Edited to add Doesn't actually sound bad for what I'm getting when read it.

I'm on West Sussex/Surrey boarders & pay £130 per month DIY.

This includes: stable, all year turn out in herd on large, well draining land, sandschool & jumps and direct access to off road hacking.

Yard Manager offers assistance varying from bringing in or turning out to full livery.

I buy my hay and straw through the yard from local farmer who delivers directly.
 
West of Scotland
92/wk (368/month) full livery excluding feed (he costs me nxt 2 nothing in feed!)
Fab yard, gr8 facilities, lovely YO/YM/staff!!
Just waiting on indoor school getting put up sometime
 
£75 a week Part on Dorset/Hants border. Includes morning duties (feed, rugs, turnout (or skip out if on box rest) and medication stuff applied/boots on) 7 mornings a week.

2 days a week evening duties are included and 2 weekend evenings a month when required included to cover any family occasion days when we can't make it up.

One bag of bedding a week and ad lib decent haylage. Rubbish but safe individual or shared grazing. Floodlit large allweather school (drainage just redone as flooded a lot this winter) with jumps and mirrors and unlit sand school for lunging, off road excellent hacking. Decent yard with tea room, full electricity etc and safe tack storage. We provide hard feed.

Expensive but gives us flexibility around family/work things and livery is dear round here unless on DIY which we can't manage time wise.
 
Ne England. £35 pw. DIY

Includes t/o or feed in the morning. Ad lib haylage.

Big indoor and outdoor schools. Year round turnout (if u dare as fields are sodden). Xc course. Off road hacking. Sj comp weekly from Easter to September.

80 ish horses on the yard but never seems that many. We all, mostly, help each other with holiday/emergency care which is worth it's weight in gold!
 
Hmmn, living in London is not good for livery prices.
