She is kind, honest, patient, and an absolute pleasure to have around, making her a firm favourite wherever she goes.She has naturally beautiful flatwork and works happily in a lovely outline when asked. Jumping is where Bunny really shines—she absolutely loves it! She’s brave, genuine, and unfazed by fillers, coloured poles, or new surroundings, always giving her rider confidence.Bunny has enjoyed Pony Club activities, camps, local shows, and fun rides, taking everything in her stride. She behaves impeccably away from home and is just as easy and relaxed out and about as she is in her stable.She has proven herself to be a fantastic all-rounder, happily turning her hoof to anything asked of her. She would continue to excel as a Pony Club pony but also has the quality and movement to do very well in the show ring or dressage with the right rider.Lead rein isn’t her favourite job, but she will happily do it.

She has never been sick or sorry and has been a straightforward, reliable pony throughout her time with us.She absolutely adores attention and will happily stand for hours being brushed, fussed over, and cuddled. She is gentle enough for children to handle and has a loving nature that makes her a joy to own.Sadly, Bunny is only looking for a new home because the children have not inherited the family’s love of ponies, so this is a genuinely heartbreaking decision.She is fit, healthy, and ready to find her next best friend.£5250 open to a sensible offer as home of most importance
Dexter, approx 14.1 black cob gelding. 16yrs. Super happy hacker. 100% in every way, clips, loads, bathes, always barefoot. Dexter has been on loan to the same family for almost 5 years where they have mainly hacked/fun rides. He’s the first to greet you, lovely personality - he loves to be spoiled and will stand forever to be pampered. Occasionally needs to be reminded of his manners on the ground, as can be determined when he sees grass! He comes with all his tack and rugs. On Wednesday he passed a stage 2 vetting, but the vet did notice some mild Cpl, which unfortunately put the prospective buyer off. With the right care - lots of turnout/excercise, keeping weight down and a low sugar diet, this is very manageable. Dexter would suit anybody! He doesn’t live life in the fast lane, but he is super safe, you don’t have to consistently nag him, he’s just a little more ‘steady’ than some. What a great thing to be! He goes first/last/somewhere in the middle. Can be a little more enthusiastic in company but never in danger of not stopping. Every loves Dexter. He’s carrying a little extra weight currently, and needs to continue to do so. Has never had lami. Please don’t hesitate to message if you’re genuinely interested in him. 5k
Beautiful 6 year old 14.1hh New Forest Mare More recent photos coming or message me for videos.I bought Acorn (Fleethouse Anastasia) from a local breeder at 6 months old and have owned her since.She was started slowly as a 3 ½ /4 year old after lots of time out in a herd as a youngster to mature. She’s now a well formed, straight forward, keen ride and absolutely loves her job.Hacks happily alone and in company, she’s off the leg and forward but sensible and polite. Schools nicely and has it all there just needs tuning with more consistent schooling as have kept things very basic and we only have a grass school. Brave and responsive to jump. Loves poles and has jumped everything I’ve put in front of her so far. She has so much scope and would make a fab little partner to event or show jump for a confident child, teen or small adult. Been to local and county shows, loads and travels well and happily stands at the box.Such a great little character that really isn’t fazed by much. Happily had kids and beginners on the lead rein and with more miles on the clock and exposure, would be a perfect 1st/2nd pony. Not currently suitable for a complete novice as she does have the odd justified spook and still appreciates clear aids and confidence from the rider.She is super easy to keep. Lives out 24/7 but also happy in a stable. Good for the farrier (currently barefoot), vet etc. Immaculate limbs, not a single bump or scratch in the whole time I’ve owned her. Up to date with teeth, vacs and worming. New Forest Pony passport – breeding info available on request. Not in a hurry to sell her, but ideally want to go into winter with one less and she’s at the sweet spot for someone to put their own stamp on and go and have lots of fun. Currently ridden 3 to 4 times a week and planning to get her to more clinics, small competitions, XC schooling etc. over the rest of summer so price may increase if she doesn’t find a new home this year.Looking for around £5,500 - flexible for the perfect home.Inc. tack and small wardrobe.Dorchester area. Happy to answer questions or anything I’ve forgotten, don’t hesitate to get in touch.
🌟 Benji 🌟10yo | 11hh | Dartmoor Hill Pony GeldingBenji is a much-loved little pony looking for his next best friend and a fun-filled home.He has previously worked in a riding school, where he taught children to ride, giving him a lovely sensible foundation.Benji is a bright, fun-loving little Dartmoor who loves having a job to do. He's happiest when he's out exploring, learning and keeping busy, and will thrive in a home where he can enjoy an active lifestyle.He is good both on and off the lead rein and would suit a confident child who wants a fun, capable pony to enjoy. While he's sensible and genuine, he isn't a kick-along pony and wouldn't be the right match for a nervous or very timid rider. He has plenty to offer a child who enjoys riding and wants a pony to get out and about with.He hacks happily alone or in company, is good to ride and lead with, has plenty of stamina and lovely movement. He also enjoys jumping and has all the makings of a fantastic Pony Club pony.Benji has a lovely foundation and low mileage. Having mainly hacked at home with a few Pony Club rallies, he’s now ready for his next adventure with a knowledgeable, horsey family who will continue his education, enjoy getting him out and about, and help him reach his full potential. We have no doubt he’ll flourish in the right home and, in return, you’ll have a fun, willing pony with heaps of character and potential.He's only for sale because my children have sadly lost interest, and I simply don't have the time he deserves.💰 £3,750 (priced to sell)
SWALLOWFIELDS EVENING STAREvie is a grey Highland pony mare, she's a big girl at approx 14.2 hh although never been officially measured, 14 yrs old. She's a quiet lovely pony to ride, alone or with others. In 2022 I rode her alone along part of the Southdowns Way, she took it all in her stride & was brilliant riding through the sheep, past cattle and staying over in strange paddocks.Evie has been great being turned out with other ponies and also with just one other, she is sweet with other ponies and would be a good mother.She's enjoyed doing polework clinics and will pop a little log out in the woods and easily goes into the river.A few years back i did inhand showing and she was always in the ribbons & in her youth inhand Reserve Champion at Pembrokeshire County show. She's not been shown recently, as she's been out on loan.She hasn't had a lot of exposure to traffic as I ride directly onto trails and forests, so she can be nervous of some vehicles and her price reflects this. She has been out on loan for 3 years, the past year to an 8 year old. I no longer need Evie as I was keeping her for my daughter, hoping she'd return to riding, but this won't happen now, as she is expecting.£9,500 onoPlease do contact me if you are interested in viewing her. Based in Hampshire.

Chaos is a 4 year old gelding, approximately 13.1hh (will be measured to confirm)As you can see he has led a life of luxury being turned away to mature and enjoy life. He is now ready to turn his hoof to being a lovely pony. Chaos is easy to handle, have his feet trimmed, to be groomed, tie up, load (cattle box), and catch. Chaos has been turned out with a herd most of his life, however he has spent time as a companion where he was handled daily and saw traffic, he is used to coming home to farm life and wild children. I believe that Chaos will make a lovely ridden pony, he has a calm demeanour, (he certainly doesn’t lead up to his name!) and seems to be very genuine.

WoottonHeath Oreo. The cuddliest, sanest, easiest pony I've had for years. Started slowly last year with natural horsemanship methods. Then when he was fully ready for novice riders, he went on loan to live in Shaftesbury to be hacked around the town and up the hills for the winter. Now back, he has done several long distance camp-out rides on Exmoor, and plenty of hacking in the NF, + schooling in the field. He has lovely balanced paces and a natural head carriage. He's happy to go in front of behind hacking - and is just starting to hack on his own. Schooling - he will slow on a "Whoah" command, nearly doing walk-canter, canter-walk is pretty good too. We don't do SJ or practice much but he'll pop a few 50cm ish fences in the field nicely (also carrying a flag or umbrella if neccessary). He has good ground work skills, plus some nice lateral work coming at a walk including, turn on forehand, turn on HQ, shoulder in, a very nice backup. Tricks: 'Kerbside; pickup: Click your fingers over his back and he'll come over to pick you up - you can get on off a digger, tractor, gate, bank, mounting block - whatever. Flag riding: walk, trot, canter with a massive flag waving. Drag riding: drag a sled or bag and he'll tow it along. He happily jumps v steadily over logs in the forest, bush bashes through bracken, crosses streams/rivers. Great to do gates. He loves to be caught! V easy to tie up, wash, trim, shoe, worm. Excellent to load and travel. V reliable in heavy traffic - he lives on a large farm with tractors/diggers/quads. It is also a pheasant shoot so they're no bother either. We also ride with the dog everywhere so that's cool too. Ride and lead is 10/10. Vet info: Fully up to date with vaccs. Given all clear in Feb for flexion and 2 stage vetting style lameness check up. Now he is a bit fat and our fields are very flat, he very occassionaly has a slightly sticking stifle - like a micro hestitation. His brother also has it and it is a mechanical issue related to unfitness. It seems to cause him no stress. When fitter it reduces/goes. As an example, he will do it circa 3 x in a 5km hack. He seems to do it worst going down a slight incline when we ride with loose reins, if we hold him together it's preventable. IMPORTANT Our area of the NF does have flu nearby. I am expecting him to just be of interest locally for that reason and therefore not in a hurry to sell him. £8k ono. I would possibly loan him to the right home for a short time. The 'right home' means an experienced, confident rider who can handle a young pony. Please do not ask to loan him if you have a nervous, or novice child and do not know about horses.I will prioritise buyers who know the basics, or want to learn NH methods because this is his normal. If he doesn't sell (quite expecting this with the stifle and the flu !) he will do Pony Club this summer, start drag hunting this winter and remain for sale to the right home.
Hatchettmill Dogger Bank; PEANUT 13.2hh 6-Year-Old Fully Registered New Forest Gelding with a Green Passport£3,500Peanut is a lovely 13'2hh, 6-year-old, fully registered New Forest gelding with a green passport. He is a genuine, kind pony with a wonderful temperament and is now looking for a home where he can continue his education.He was lightly backed and ridden away last year and then was sent to a jockey for the finishing touches before being turned away for the winter. A couple of months ago he was restarted, but due to my work commitments, he has unfortunately been turned away again and is now being offered for sale from the field.Peanut is easy to handle, loves people, and has a huge personality. He is a pleasure to have around.He has run the forest as a 2 year old and has seen Cows, sheep, pigs and farm machinery He has also ran with geldings, mares and foals He loves water and is often found chilling in our river He once made friends with one of our friends cows, which sums up his friendly nature perfectly.He has lived out all year without a rug, with access to shelter, and has been stabled when required. He is good for the farrier, and is an easy doer who happily lives off fresh air, only receiving a small token feed while the others eat.Peanut had previously sustained a cut to one of his foot that has left a faint scar. This has never affected his soundness, and he made a full recovery with no ongoing issues.This is an incredibly sad sale. I have had Peanut since he was just 9 months old, and this decision has not been made lightly. He deserves someone who has the time to continue his education and give him the job he deserves. I truly believe he will make a fantastic all-round pony thanks to his intelligence, and love of people.£3,500Please get in touch for more information or to arrange a viewing. Sold from fieldCan provide videos of peanut upon request.

It is with no rush and only because my daughter is outgrowing him that we are considering finding our much-loved pony his perfect new home.He is a 21-year-old, 12.2hh British Riding Pony gelding who has been an absolute dream for us. He has done a little Pony Club, but the majority of his time has been spent hacking, which is where he is happiest. He hacks alone or in company, happily leads alongside my horse, and has cantered sensibly in large groups. That said, he has also taught my daughter a few lessons along the way! His favourite trick is putting his head down when there's particularly nice grass, which was easily solved with grass reins. He has just enough character to teach a child the odd riding lesson while always remaining kind, safe and genuine.He truly is the sort of pony every parent hopes to find. He is a perfect lead rein pony who is also ideal for a child to progress onto as their first ridden. He is incredibly patient, kind and forgiving, and nothing seems to faze him.He is definitely more woah than go and is much happier plodding along than rushing about. I can happily sit back at Pony Club and watch without a single worry because, if anything, most of the time he would rather not move! He gives children confidence rather than excitement and looks after his little riders every step of the way.Babies have poked fingers up his nose, children have climbed all over him, stood on his back and jumped off, and he simply takes it all in his stride. My daughter does all of his day-to-day handling herself, and even my novice son, who isn't horsey at all, can catch, groom and lead him because he is so gentle and easy to manage.He lives out on a large hill with a herd of geldings and settles brilliantly in a herd environment. He is an easy keeper with a laid-back nature and is happy to turn out with mares or geldings. He currently wears front shoes purely because our hacking routes and fields are very stony, but he was happily barefoot before.He has always been treated exactly the same as my sports horse and has never been "just the child's pony." He has received the very best of care throughout his life, including routine physio and chiropractic treatments as part of his regular maintenance. He has also had dental work to ensure his teeth are now in excellent condition, and I am happy to discuss this with genuine buyers and provide the veterinary report for complete transparency.We feel he deserves a home where he can enjoy life at a slightly slower pace. He has given my daughter so much confidence, but she is now ready for more than he enjoys doing. We would love to see him teaching another little rider the ropes, with plenty of grass, fuss and family life. He isn't the pony for a child wanting to bomb around fields or jump big tracks every weekend. Instead, he deserves a family looking for a safe, sensible and confidence-giving pony who will happily carry a little one on the lead rein before becoming their trusted first ridden partner.He comes with his full wardrobe of tack and rugs, so he is ready to go and start his next adventure with his new little rider.This is a heartbreaking decision, so finding the right home is far more important than a quick sale. Homes will be chosen very carefully for this very special little pony. £3500 ono
Poppy is looking for her best friend 🥰She is a 14/14.1 new forest x hackney who I have owned from 6 months old but sadly she hasn't made the height for me to continue with her and I don't have a consistent rider to take her forward.She turned 6 in April and has been sensibly started allowing her to have all the time she needed to mature (and grow!)Backed at 4 , hacked for the summer and autumn at 5 and now ready for someone to put their own stamp on her and enjoy her. She is currently being hacked 4/5 times a week and enjoying her riding time.She loves her person and develops a close bond. Easy to catch, farrier (barefoot) , tack up, mount, hose. She's hacked alone and in company (a little wary alone when getting to know you but happy to be told what to do!) and is very brave with unusual sights. She has seen and ridden past cows and been out to a show in a busy environment. She is still a young horse though so would like an experienced rider to show her the ropes in her new home. She has never shown any bad behaviour under saddle, no bucking, rearing, bolting etc. She isn't the finished article and should be considered as a nicely started project ready to see the world!She lunges off of voice commands and is a lovely little horse. Poppy appears to enjoy jumping and takes herself off over little fences in the field, she has never attempted to jump out of her field and is very respectful of her fencing 🩷I have many photos and videos of her which I can send via Whatsapp Poppy is based in Jersey and there is regular transport for horses to the mainland. Double check if you need to pay VAT on import.Very sad sale but if she stays with me she will just be a field ornament which would be a shame as she thrives on her human time 🩷 6k 🥕 she has a full wardrobe that can come with her, fitted saddle at extra cost but good price!Please Whatsapp in first instance
Mellow is very sadly for sale as her jockey is ready to move onto a horse. She has an amazing jump and is schooling in a nice outline, although we haven't done dressage with her. She jumps over a 1m at home easily and competed at 80cm show jumping (although could easily compete higher). She is easy to catch, load, shoe, clip, vet, teeth etc and she will hack alone or in company. She can give a buck and can still be a little green at times and needs a good rider to give her confidence and as is therefore not a novice ride. With the right rider she could excel, particularly in show jumping. £9000

CHOCOLATE Incredibly safe and sensible driving pony standing around 12.2hh. Such a chunky and level headed pony, weight carrying type. Stands like a rock in all situations with the youngest of children. 6 years old with a lot of experience under its belt in a cart, he’s the pony that you can allow the kids to mess around on solo. Perfect for beginners and really looks after you, short, steady and consistent pace. Unphased by anyone or anything, been driven in the heaviest of traffic regularly. Will stand at the pub for hours no fuss. Amazing with children. Under 2’s regularly jump on him bare back. He’s a pony very hard to find and a really heart breaking decision to sell, sadly he’s just being wasted with me and I’m giving up horses all together. He is a stallion but goes out with mares, geldings and colts, he hasn’t needed to be gelded due to literally having no drive or idea what to do even with mares in season it’s quite unbelievable! Previous home wanted to use him to breed from and tried many times with multiple mares, he’s just not interested. Very cheap to keep and wants for nothing, a real gentleman. £2750

Synod Rose Quartz8 year old mare approximately 13hhRosie is the most loving and cuddly mare.She hacks like a an absolute saint for adults and kids and is often used to babysit the nervous ones. She hacks alone and in company, first or last and never heats up. She is currently enjoying her schooling if only done a couple of times a week and loves to jump.Rosie did have a ligament injury back in 2024 but has had no issues since being rehabbed so there is no reason for this to cause an issue in to future as long as her work is kept varied.She is not a traditional kids pony as she can be stubborn in the school, just not going forward for the little ones but my daughter hacks her no problem and does everything on the ground with her with no problem. She is up to date with everything and easy to do in all ways, loads herself.I am 5”6 and she comfortably takes up my leg well. Her price will reflect her previous injury so she is an absolute bargain with her temperament and breeding. Only for sale as I have 2 of my own and my daughter has moved up to a bigger pony of her own too. Based in Hampshire
Oscar is a beautifully bred, quality young New Forest gelding with an exceptional temperament and a very exciting future ahead of him.Produced slowly and correctly, he has already enjoyed great success in the show ring, winning both Novice classes before taking Overall Ring Champion at his most recent show. He has also been successful in-hand and has always behaved impeccably at shows.Despite his age, Oscar has an old head on young shoulders.

Very good doer and has wintered out rugged with me.Oscar hacks confidently in company and hacks alone well just a little green. He is good in traffic, and has recently started jumping small fences both at home and away from home. He is proving to be brave and willing, taking everything in his stride.He schools nicely in all three paces and has established the basics well, but he is still a young pony and remains green, so would benefit from someone continuing his education.
