40 min drive away, about 4 stops away on the train, yet on a 750 acre estate!!! Nice big jumping school and flatwork school, monthly jumping comps, it is a tired yard but that doesn't bother me in the slightest!! Easily affordable full livery which surprised us because it is so close to London!! Has everything I need!!!

YAYYYY

Not far from where I live then - although my horse is further south in Kent - nearer Maidstone / Tonbridge. That is great news! 750 acres in that area is good going! You must be v. pleased. Delighted for you!

I think I know where you mean! Used to go there for RC rallies, many, many years ago! Hope the move works out OK for you

I am very lucky actually - Mum owns 4.5 acres with 4 stables & we have our 2 TBs there. She feeds every morning before she goes to work & on her way home in the evening, but I usually do 4 evenings a week too - It is a pretty unfair split (

) but she understands that I live on my own & work in London & it is not economically feasible for me to do more! Would love to be nearer him though! - One day I will move back!

Oh wow, that is brilliant!!! LOL the first question asked when we ring up a yard is 'is there a train station near you?' hehe, cos that is how I get around atm!
One day I will move to the country too
