Quick Q- grass livery, price?

[JoBo]

Just doing some sums....

How much would you expect to pay (very rough guide) for grass livery per week? Talking midlands area but national price would be handy.

How many horses would you put on 16 acres of well drained land (with field shelters, two large ones)?

Cheers in advance!

I would say 9 to 10 horses if they are to live off the land and you want to rest part and rotate as is recommended good practice. £10 to £15 pw per horse

around 10 horses possibly more if ponies and around £15 p/w

Thanks guys, so if I had five, plus my two and the mini, that would be do-able. Now just got to work out if the rest of the place would work for the main business. Ummm.....

Do you have hard standing, any buildings/storage, hay barn, toilets/coffee room, running water/running electric, mains electric, battery/provide you own.

Lots of variables
