DIY - £20p/wk (but I pay monthly so its £80 if its 28 days but more if 30/31 days etc) for both of mine. I can have 24hr turnout if I want all year round, but they are in at night in the Winter - there are 2 outdoor schools, 1 with jumps, 1 indoor school, a horsewalker and there are approx 10acres of fields to ride round at an extra small cost per month. Feed and bedding is extra - but shavings are £5 a bale and a big round bale of hay is £25 which lasts my two 4 weeks.

£80 per month for DIY - stable, field (very good grazing and can be out 24/7 if I want), straw provided and reasonable sized field to ride in with some jumps, great hacking as well.

I currently get 'free' livery at a private yard, limited turnout, no menage, excellent hacking.

Old yard was i *think* 17 pounds a week, unlimited turnout, YO was about most of the day, excellent hacking, menage, hay in winter.

I'm in Wiltshire and charge my one livery £25 per week, this includes two acre paddock with post & Rail & hedges for sole use 24 hours per day if required, quality 14x14 stable in enclosed well lit yard with one other horse, unlimited storage for bedding, hay etc. Secure tack room/feed room. Unlimited use of 20x40 rubber/sand arena with basic selection of jumps, trailer storage. Doesn't include hay or bedding. The deal is that she feeds my horse and turns him out in the morning because I start work very early, and in turn I put hers to bed (nightmare!!!!!) as she works late. Hacking also excellent.

I pay £78 per month and three of us share 30+ acres and all muck in with eachother bringing in turning out etc. we have a small menage, ok hacking lights and all the basics. the youngest is 27 and they still enjoy a hack for half an hour once or twice a week. we choose when we turn out and bring insummer and winter and the owner has no idea about horses so we never see him !!! Its great

We're on a small yard (11 horses) and pay £25 per week for stable, grazing, walker, solarium, 60x40 menage with SJ's and dressage areas. Obviously haylage, turnouts. fetch ins, muck outs, etc are extra but I think this is good value for money.

I pay 86.60 a month for DIY, our yard has internal stables, individual turnout all year round, and 20x40 school with showjumpsand flood lights. Its one of the nicest livery yards in our area, and one of the cheapest!

full livery £60 pw.field in summer, haylage and straw upto a certain amount then you have to pay for any extra.yorkshire area.
