I am a spoilt little madam lol ;-)

We have our own 66 acre farm, which includes mountain, private beaches and lots of green field hacking.

4 large stables (all with windows) within an insulated American barn, feed room, heated tack room with hot water :-) washing machine, coffee maker, kettle, fridge, microwave sofas and a table.

Huge barn (you have to walk through to get horses out of stables) with a winter turnout area (post and rails) with access to rubber mats in the barn for shelter.

3 huge turnout paddocks around the farm.

20x40 dressage marked sand school.

Trailer and Range Rover.

Oh and we own a tack shop with a huge online presence (we import from all over the world to Norway), so I have access to anything I might run out of and Horseware and Shires (plus many other brands) at trade on tap.

So I am a very very lucky horse owner and do not take it for granted for a moment. Mind you hubby and I have worked so very hard to have all this and be mortgage free in our early 30's, lots of sacrifice, no hols and living a frugal existence.
