The owner of the field asked for a word, the field is going to be split in half as he isn't making enough money out of it. That will leave us with only 5 acres for 5 horses who live out 24/7! The grazing is at best poor, with lots of nettles and thistles and not much grass. It was just left to grow wild before we took it on.
Apparently he wants to make £100 per week for a place with poor grazing, no water, electric or shelter apart from the one we will still be using. Good luck with that one.
We are already looking for somewhere else. If he puts more horses on it, it will end up as an overgrazed mud bath. Parts of are very wet, one part by the shelter is a pond at the moment. I don't think he realises that people are not going to pay for poor grazing with no facilities. It has improved in the time we have been there, but really it needs ploughing up and starting again.
They only pay £100 a week for the yard we were on with good grazing a proper yard with a barn and stables, it also had water. If he was offering those facilities I wouldn't mind paying for it, but he isn't.
