Livery

At Ormiston we provide for our liveried horses what we wish for our own..a homely environment. Our Barn comprises 16 12’x12’ boxes and offers ample height and size for the larger horse. All stables have an outside window hatch, automatic water and are rubber matted. All of this contributes to a less stressed and more comfortable lifestyle for the horse.

Part, full, training, competition and sale livery are provided.

Training livery can be on a short or long-term basis to suit the rider’s needs with a ‘hand-the-reins-over’ period included if required. All riding /training is done solely by myself and tailored to the rider’s specific needs. Competition livery takes the training livery a stage further. I would take your horse to pre-discussed competitions and compete in the appropriate classes. Horses can also be taken for preparation/sale.

We have an excellent 20x60m Andrews Bowen ProWax surfaced arena. It is floodlight and has training mirrors. The surface allows us to ride on even the wettest or coldest days without any alteration to the quality of the going.
