George and Muriel:

We have been buying, selling and producing horses and ponies for over 25 years. Many of which have gone on to win and be placed in European Championships, in showjumping and eventing.

It is not only the top end of the market that we cater for, we supply many riding schools throughout scotland with horses and ponies, and a large proportion of our business is to riding club and pony club level clients.

We always have a large selection of horses and ponies in stock of all varieties, so there is almost always something to suit. If we do have the suitable horse we will be able to source one for you.

Most of our horses are bought abroad in france, belguim, holland, germany, sweden, norway and the majority of our ponies from Ireland. Over the years we have built up a massive clientel worldwide, selling many horses to America, Spain and as far as Dubai.
