Yard Details

Whether a competition horse or retired…

whether ridden every day, or twice a week…

and regardless of it’s worth…

If you are fed up worrying about your horse, we can promise you that at Diamond Dressage the horses really do come first!

We are an 18 box livery yard, surrounded by beautiful countryside and amazing off road hacking.

The yard is owned and run by Grand Prix Dressage Rider, Trainer and Trainee BD Judge, Tracey Nelson, who is happy to help any rider from beginner to Advanced and on any type of horse.

We have long-term, caring and conscientious staff (our Head Girl, Kathy, has been with us for 18 years) that treat every horse as an individual and care for them as if their own.

Both Tracey and Kathy have a wealth of knowledge and experience, which enables them to run a meticulous yard with the absolute highest standards of care.

Tracey also specialises in young horses, having trained her own from prelim to GP she also represented GB at the 2024 MCI European Championships in Paris on her PRE gelding.

We have a great bunch of liveries, some of whom have been with us for over 15 years – testimonials can be found on our website.

Review by Sharon – Jan, 2025
I have been a horse sharer at Diamond Dressage for about 3 years. Tracey and all the staff have been very welcoming and have taken time to help me get to know the horse and how to care for him. Thanks to them I have learnt so much. It’s very professionally run and the staff genuinely care for the horses and staff and owners are all really friendly

Review by Val – Jan, 2025
I have been a livery at Diamond Dressage for over 10 years. The high standards of care provided by Tracey, Kathy and the team are exceptional and give me complete confidence that my horse will be well cared. I know i never have to worry if I am unable to be there. The horses benefit from a regular routine and consistent handling by experienced knowledgeable staff who really do have the horses best interests at heart. The yard & facilities are lovely as is the hacking in the beautiful surrounding countryside. I feel very lucky to have been able to train regularly with Tracey throughout my time at Diamond Dressage. She has so much knowledge & experience, a great eye & a way of explaining things that just makes sense. My horse is stronger & his whole attitude to work has changed. He is now able to do things i never dreamed possible If you are looking for a friendly & professionally run yard, with high standards, where the horses really do come first, Diamond Dressage is the yard for you.

Review by Clare – Jan, 2025
I have been at Diamond Dressage for 18 years. It’s a yard where horse care is the top priority. My mare is very happy in the yard routine and that means I have peace of mind whether I am at home or away. A sociable yard with great liveries too.

Review by Celia Mackenzie – Jan, 2025
I have been at Diamond Dressage livery yard for 4+ years and I can honestly say it has been the best livery yard I have ever been with. The yard really does put the horses first and the level of care for the horses is and always has been 5*. The facilities are perfect with two large schools and miles of hacking right on the door step. Tracey and Kathy have always cared for my boy like their own, the yard is totally reliable and always goes the extra mile for me and my boy. If you want your horse properly cared for and looked after this is the place to be.

Review by Lisa – Jan, 2025
I guess it speaks for itself given I’ve been with Tracey and the DD team for about 20 years and over 4 horses. Currently I have a retired horse at DD but chose not to move him as it’s his home and I feel confident he will be cared for, as he was when he was ‘working’ so happy to pay a little more for that peace of mind. It’s a rare treat to be able to walk away and not worry about your horse knowing he’ll be cared for. Tracey is also a knowledgeable trainer and horse woman which is a great asset.
