We are looking for kind, considerate rider/s to help with riding and DIY horse care chores. We have a 15.1hh, light bay, 12 year old, ISH gelding. Would suit a confident rider as can be strong but is not at all difficult. We also have a thoroughbred, 15.3hh, 12 year old, chestnut gelding. He is responsive and not at all a complicated ride but would more likely suit a confident, experienced rider simply due to his potential speed and the very rare spook. Share of weekends & weekdays. We look after our horses well and are looking for any sharer to do the same.
Only reliable and committed offers please. No time wasters or fair weather riders please as need commitment.
Either physical help with all DIY chores or financial help please.
Contact: 07938 764452 or 01273 478 775 & please leave a text/message as I will call you back
