I know ithis is probably a minefield but we've finally decided to have a couple of DIY-ers to rent stables on our private yard.
It will be stables, use of outdoor arena and paddock. We are trying to make sure we've thought of everything up front to include in either the contract or yard rules, so things run as smoothly as possible from the start, and so we don't wind people up by keeping adding things.
The main problem for us is we've never been on someone else's yard or had livery ourselves - in all the years we've had our horses we've either rented fields and now finally have our own small yard -so we've no idea what 'normal' is for these things.
I know quite a few of you are YOs yourself or have rented your own stables/yard, please can I benefit from your experience! If you wouldn't mind sharing me with what you have included in your contracts, and yard rules (I'm also having difficulty deciding what should be in the contract and what should just be 'manners').
Thank you
