Horses living at BEC Livery are iron-free & live as a natural, mixed herd, eating a fibre-based diet, having unrestricted movement and with access to natural and man-made shelter on our 23-acre farm in beautiful and tranquil west Wales. The first thing visitors say is “isn’t it peaceful here and the horses all seem so contented”.
We take your horse’s health and happiness very seriously. All horses are treated as individuals and will be catered for individually.
The main track runs around a 10-acre area, with two further tracks joining the perimeter track. The area of herbal grazing in the centre is divided into paddocks, with access from the track, with a further paddock and large lounging area below – access to the herbal grazing paddocks is on a rotation basis and depends on time of year, weather conditions etc. We also have a large concrete yard which is ideal for wetter times, but also to escape the heat in the summer as it is well sheltered.
We have a further area of about 10 acres, which consists of three fields of herbal meadows – this is for our dentally-challenged oldies, who need access to grazing 24/7 all year round – see photos.
So you can see we are able to cater for all stages of retirement!
NB: We are no longer operating a riding school, so our small indoor school is available now exclusively to livery clients 🙂
The yard owner & family live on site and Bitless Equestrian Centre is fully insured as a professional livery yard.
We are an ABRS+ Certified Livery Yard and a Non Ridden Equine Friendly Business.
