Recommended Livery Yards - Gloucestershire

[Half-Halt]

I'm looking at buying a horse after a few years break and wondered if any of you could recommend any livery yards in the Gloucestershire area. It would be on a DIY basis.

Thanks guys

what area would you be looking at?

 

[Half-Halt]

I'm just outside of Berkeley and work in Quedgeley - so anywhere in between really!

Any ideas of costs would also be v. helpful

 

[ThePony]

Ah, don't know that area I'm afraid, sorry.

You may find some advertising in Haven Animal Feeds at Cam. There is Tumpy Green Equestrian centre near to them - they claim to have liveries (disclaimer - I know nothing about it!)

Billow Livery, or is that a bit far?

I'm 5 mins away from both places but haven't heard great things about either one. =/

Ideally i'd win the lottery right about now so i could get my own place

 

[Flummoxed]

There's always Summerhouse.

Good luck with the lottery!

Or Buckover? http://www.buckoverequestrian.co.uk/ Bit further but it looked very nice when I went for a rally there. I think you're near Rockhampton as well?

Don't go for summerhouse! Fab as a venue, but they sacrificed a lot of grazing to build the arenas, so turnout is a luxury there.
Mine is too far away from you I think... let me know if you'd be interested to find out about us anyway!

 

[Half-Halt]

Never thought about Rockhampton!

I know, shame about Summerhouse, it's literally a stones throw away from where i work >.<

I'll PM you Starzaan

Roland Fernios isn't that far away from Quedgeley, not sure if it's that cheap though, don't know a great deal about it other than second -hand praise singing by a fellow livery at a different yard!

Where do you work Half-Halt? I am also currently sat in an office a stone's throw from Summerhouse!

 

[Half-Halt]

An office in waterwells business park Zzzzzzz...Just looked at the clock and realised there's only 15 minutes left! . You?

Will check that place also..got a while to do some research!

 

[AprilBlossom]

Also Waterwells, except I've got another 40 mins of work! Small world isnt it!!

 

[Half-Halt]

Very!
How do you cope in winter with work and horses?!
I gave up when i started this full time job because i didn't think i'd have enough time - i kept mine at a family yard with no facilities, just hacking - hence now looking at yards!

 

[Flummoxed]

Just remembered another - at Longney. This one should be quite close to you, I think

Hello,

Park Corner between Stroud and Cirencester is fab', it's where I keep my horse!
DIY £30/ week all year around included a stable, hay, straw, field (with other horses)+ use of the tackroom if needed.
Fantastic hacking as 1minute ride away from Cirencester Park.
They are 6 horses there at present and very nice people!
Let me know if you are interested
