If she's 2, you've got a good year of her going away really before you might want to start doing anything with her, and really it wouldn't hurt to leave her there 18 months until the end of next winter if you still can't find appropriate turnout before it rolls around.
I think you'd be far better doing that than keeping her where she is tbh.
The small private yard does sound like a nice option and it's worth visiting and getting a feel for the place, as well as asking a few more questions about turnout.
If you had an older established horse I'd say it's seems well worth looking at, but with a youngster I think I'd still sway to sending her away tbh as a lot could change by the time you're ready to bring her back anyway and I think youngstock turnout will be nicer for her in the interim.
