Livery
We provide top quality livery for our clients in our beautiful courtyard stables. We have a team of BHS and HSI qualified instructors and yard managers who take pride in caring for all animals onsite and who can provide professional advice. We live onsite so clients have access to the yard when they need it and there is always someone here.
Full livery at Dunbyrne Stud
At our family run livery yard we offer full stabled livery for horses and ponies. We believe that horses thrive on routine and aim to provide a relaxed and comfortable environment. Horses enjoy huge stables with deep shavings beds overlooking our courtyard with its beautiful pond feature. The courtyard layout allows good ventilation while maintaining a warm stable and means that horses can view each other. Horses are mucked out daily with fresh shavings added twice a week. Horses receive top quality feed and haylage twice a day with supplements provided by owners added to the evening feed.
Our arena is 50 * 70m and is floodlit from both sides. This is an all weather arena with excellent drainage. Liveries have unlimited access to the arena. We live onsite which means we have flexible hours so that you can see your horse whenever it suits you. We never allow anyone to book exclusive use of the arena for anything as we do not want to restrict when our liveries can use it.
Our sand gallops is all weather 4.5 furlongs and has direct access to the wooded hacking trails and the cross country elements including the water feature. This is the ideal place for working on your horses fitness, practicing your cross country riding or just enjoying a leisurely hack.
Our 20m round pen is ideal for lunging, loose schooling and ground work.
Our paddocks are carefully maintained so that they have grass year round. This encourages horses to relax and eat and minimises the risk of injury. Our paddocks are all individual with electric fences. Horses go out in the mornings every day all year round from Winter to Summer. During the Autumn and Winter months horses legs are hosed by our team upon return from the paddock.
Liveries have access to our free horsebox parking, our secure tack room and our heated rug room with storage space. Our onsite washing machine can be used for rugs and numnahs to save you bringing them home to wash. Our canteen has tea and coffee supplies and a fridge and microwave.
