Review by Jane Freer – Feb, 2019
After a serious accident my pony was in a very poorly condition. She moved to Jo’s and in full livery went on to be restored to good health and happiness. Jo went on to break this nervous little thing using her seamless training and kind handling that is the standard for this yard. I moved away from the area but then health issue saw me move her back to Thornbank for post operative care and convalescence that entailed four months box rest which Sally sailed through.Now 100% we are no longer at Jo’s but I have no hesitation in recommended her yard at Thornbank Stables. Jo does what she says on the tin and follows through the plan that you put in place for your equines. She’s kind, she feeds well, the paddocks are clean and the support is there for whatever level you are with your equine.

Review by R L Cowling – Jan, 2019
Great livery with a very genuine owner. Jo honestly cares about the horses and clients at her yard. I couldn’t fault the care and attention provided over the years I was a client there.

Review by K.Corry – Dec, 2018
An amazing yard with the most patient staff. Joanne uses natural methods, as it says, balanced equine, this produces amazing results. Whether its from an unbroken horse or a horse with deep personal issues, time is taken individually to build trust and give them confidence to go on into a happy future.. I would 100% recommend this person and yard along with her training techniques….
