Ridden Paddock Paradise Livery located near Newport, Shropshire.
Our ridden yard is an expansion of our livery services, having previously only offered retirement, non-ridden and rehabilitation. This separate, ridden-horses only yard opened in February 2023 and is also a paddock paradise livery, situated approximately a mile from our rehab and retirement yard.
We prioritise horse centric care by meeting the fundamental, natural needs of our horses, offering 24/7 turnout and movement, adlib forage, herd living and a species appropriate environment. We are a barefoot only yard and offer full livery only too. Please note, we do not stable or graze horses.
