At Elvingston
we strive to provide your mare with the highest possible
standard of care. Very experienced and responsible
staff care for the horses. You can rest assured that
your horse will be treated as an individual and handled with
the greatest care and respect. We aim to keep horses
calm, stress-free and happy throughout their stay, with
welfare being our top priority. We have 24 hour
supervision, and are privileged to be in a very quiet,
secluded and secure location.
The fields are
securely fenced with white electric fencing and plain wire.
Each field is a minimum of 2 acres, and has plenty of
shelter, shade, a broad-spectrum mineral lick and automatic
water trough. The fencing and water is routinely
checked every day, and the grazing is regularly rotated to
keep it fresh and nutritious. Restricted grazing
available is required.
All horses are
wormed on arrival, and every 6 weeks thereafter. The
horses are checked thoroughly twice daily, and have their
hooves picked out. Mares are turned out in pairs with
a suitable match after a couple of days individual turnout
to allow them to settle after arrival (no extra charge).
Individual turnout can be provided for the mare if
preferred. If your mare requires extra hard feed,
medication or supplements, she will be brought into a stable
each day to eat in peace.
Mares are taken
for foaling. We also take horses and ponies for
backing, schooling, sales preparation and selling.
