Cirencester??

Ideally assisted DIY but can do DIY. If Part is an option that would be considered too. Ideally would like an indoor school but if the rest of the yard is immense then I can move on that. 24/7 turnout is a must, good hacking, instructor onsite or option to have own and potential for schooling preferred.

I will be based in Cricklade so anywhere near there is good! If you wouldn't mind letting me know prices, what the yard atmospheres are like as well [if you know!] and if they provide hay & straw etc or where you get your own and cost?

Thanks :)

Firstly, welcome to Cricklade - my horses are based there!

Re livery yards, there is one I ride past called Pound Farm - www.poundfarmliveryandequestrian.co.uk Looks good, and ponies always look well

There is also Chelworth Farm, I've heard nice things about it but don't know it personally. http://www.chelworthfields.co.uk/

If you can go further afield there are some nice yard in Cirencester ( like Park Corner Farm) and you have Cirencester Park to hack in...amazing!

We're in Leigh, about 2 mins drive from Cricklade high street.

If he ever sees polo ponies trotting up the road...that's us!

There are loads of horses around, its very horsey country!

If you're in Cricklade it's probably worth just taking a drive out to the Leigh - you'll pass ChelworthFields and if you take a right down Swan Lane there are 2 yards at least that do livery Pound Farm and another which I'm kicking myself because I know the owners but can't think of the yard name!
