Hiya was thinking about sending my horse away for schooling livery for 2 weeks and had a couple questions.
Is 2 weeks enough?
And how much would I be spending (ish) I’m in Gloucester. Thanks :)

Gosh it depends on what you want the trainer to achieve. I've sent horses on training livery whilst I've been away or unable to ride for anything from a week to several weeks. Sometimes it's just been to keep them in work, sometimes it's to iron out a particular problem that I've struggled with. For longer periods I've gone up and had a lesson on a weekly basis but generally I've had a clear idea of why the horse is there. In Gloucestershire, with a decent rider I'd expect to pay at least £200pw and tbh probably quite a bit more.

Approx £250/week (perhaps +VAT) I expect. If you want lessons that will be additional
