Court Farm Equestrian was originally Carters Barn Equestrian (based in Piddlehinton, nr Dorchester). After a brilliant four and a half years at Carters barn, we needed to expand from our 16 box yard due to being exceptionally busy, and are pleased to have taken on Court Farm, Buckland Newton.
We continue to offer high quality full livery, schooling livery, backing livery, hunt, rehabilitation, sales and holiday livery with our existing team of experienced staff. We treat every horse as if they were our own, getting to know each one as an individual and tailoring a care package to suit horse and owner.
We are pleased to accommodate happy hackers, rehabilitation liveries, competition horses and everything in between! We are perfectly placed between South Dorset, Cattistock and B&SV Hunts.
Our 23 box yard is located in a very private but stunning location in the heart of a 500 acre private estate in Buckland Newton with direct access onto miles and miles of bridleways. The hacking is incredibly varied with routes over to Batcombe down and the Dorset Gap. There is plenty of hillwork, perfect for fitness training, as well as quiet lanes, with no need for any road work if you don’t want to. We are always happy to show our liveries the best routes.
The yard and grounds are maintained to a very high standard and are kept clean, tidy and organised.
The facilities include:
- 30×60 Martin Collins arena with a full set of jump for joy jumps and fillers.
- Monarch horse walker
- Grass jump/schooling field
- Large airy stables with oversized automatic drinkers
- Internal wash bay with hot and cold water
- Full HD 4K CCTV surveillance system
- Fully alarmed secure tack room
- Locked feed store
- Tea/coffee making facilities
- Toilet
- Large concreted hardstanding areas for loading/unloading. Outdoor tie ups and washing off facilities.
- Monthly dressage/flatwork clinics with UKCC Level 3 and BD accredited coach Amy Blount
A full time staff member lives on on site (late checks included).
The turnout is secure, well maintained and poo picked regularly. We can offer all year round pair or individual turnout, and have several smaller paddocks for isolation/controlled turnout.
This yard has to be seen to be appreciated, so please get in touch for more information or to arrange a viewing, and we will be happy to discuss your requirements.
