I enjoy having my horse live at ivesley because my horse loves being there. Yes the facilities are second to none. But my horse and i are wanting a more quieter lifestyle. We get it. The staff help out when needed and leave you to plod along as we want. The grass paddocks are good and the unlimited beautiful quality hay throughout summer/winter is always available.

Review by , 6 months ago

Ivesley is a happy and friendly yard which reflects its BHS Highly Commended rating. It has great facilities including a large outdoor area,indoor arena and lunge pen. In the Summer there is a show jumping paddock available and of course there are the cross country fields. There is easy access to miles and miles of off road hacking along the Deerness Valley with a great variety of terrain. The staff are knowledgeable, friendly and supportive. The yard is well managed and maintained. There is a grass management policy in place for the fields. Ivesley produces its own haulage which is another plus. Throughout the year there are a variety of clinics and competitions held. The atmosphere at these events is always supportive and encouraging. The yard also runs some events just for us liveries which are always fun. I have been at Ivesley for over three years. Myself and my horse are very content here.

Review by , 6 months ago

My horses have been beautifully settled here for years now. The surface in the outdoor is top class, stable, drains amazingly and is neither too deep nor too firm. The fencing is horse safe and well maintained. So my top priorities are met. Beyond that it’s not limited for acreage which is wonderful for natural, spacious fields and avoiding muddy, depressing winter bogs. I like to think if my horses could choose, they would pick Ivesley too.

Review by , 6 months ago

Ivesley EC is a great BHS Highly Commended yard. It has excellent facilities which are maintained every day, come rain or shine. There is fabulous hacking, leading for miles along the Deerness Valley. There are optional woodland rides, river crossings and canter fields along the way too. There's lots of opportunities to join in the lessons, clinics, training and competitions which are held regularly, but there's no pressure to join in, it's a very relaxed and supportive yard. There's various instructors, farriers and health care professionals who visit the yard regularly too. The staff are friendly, approachable and knowledgable and adhoc services can be added to your livery package if required. 5*
