Hi I'm new to Devon. I'm looking for diy/assisted diy or part livery anywhere between ivybridge and yelverton area for one gelding. Must have off good off road hacking and good all year turnout. Don't need a school as happy hackers only would prefer a smaller yard,


thanks for any suggestions

Welcome to the area! It's lovely down here. I'm afraid I can't suggest a yard as all those I know of are full, however have you discovered Serpells? (Agricultural stuff and horsey shop). I think Tom Wilcocks in Plympton is still going too - another horsy shop. Might be worth popping in an having a look on their notice boards - and asking the staff too. Good luck!

Welcome to the best part of the UK. Again no specific yard suggestion, but theres a horsy shop at yelverton called pet & pony. Owner seems to know everyone in the area so she'd be good to have a chat to.

Hi welcome to the area!! Serpells in plympton do livery. They have a small school and lots of grass. Crossways in yelverton do livery. Very big and have a school. Swainstone in plympton. Im not sure of facilities or whether any of these have availability but worth a ring. There is a lady in walkhampton which is nr yelverton who runs a place called tiger tors. She has great facilities ie round pen arena sized school. She sometimes does livery. Shes called sue Langley. You can find her on fb. There is a place in tamerton foliot up the road from asda but Im unsure of what they offer or even what they are called but you could leave a note on the gate. Thsts what I did when I moved a year ago. Theres biggen hill in ernesettle near st budeaux church. They oftren have horses either side of the road but I think its just fields with field shelters. If you are on facebook then there are some local groups which are specifically for livery so might be owrht looking for them. I think they are called something like livery in Plymouth. Im part of it but cant quite remember the name. Hope you get something:)

Hi, i think i may have spoken to you via PM before?
I think Crossways are full. There is Higher Bughill farm which have liveries, and could see if my friend has any spaces on her farm near Tamerton Foliot?

Again look on livery/land/grazing Plymouth for yards, Crossways are smart but very limited winter turnout, depending on where you are living, I think there are some nice yards at Cornwood and Ivybridge way,
