Peta's Place Equestrian Centre

Peta's Place Equestrian Centre We pride ourselves on being more than a livery yard. We care for your complete horse, whether you ar I had a dream. I have been blessed to create such a place.

I wanted my horses to live like horses in a relaxed environment while still enjoying the comforts that they were accustomed to. All the horses are weighed on a regular basis and fed according to their requirements with oathay, lucerne, teff and whichever concentrate suits them best. horses were designed to eat roughage and lots of it. if there isn't food left in the morning it means they need more. we weigh all their food so we can monitor how many kilo's they are eating. All our horses live in camps with grazing, either in mixed herds or single gender herds depending on who they are. With us, the horse's wellbeing comes first. They need to be well conditioned physically and mentally. We have managed to secure the best professionals to work at our yard, Kevin Dodd, the Baker McVeigh team, Jonathan Perkin, Shannon Petitaund, Julie Lustgarten and Jj. My passion is nutrition and many hours are spent working on the best possible feed for every horse. i believe that horses should spend as much time as possible outside regardless of the weather and that routine is king. we have a variety of clients from youngsters to retired horses and everyone in between. Listening to the blue cranes and fish eagles while watching the various herds interact makes my dream a reality.

Honour the Guest was a grade 1 winner and is in weekend work but just blossoming.
Apologise was bought many years ago from Gary Matodes who owned Camelot Riding School. He is fully retired.

On hot days, well every day in summer, our horses get watermelon after supper. Once everyone is groomed and temped, buckets of watermelon are carried around and fed with great excitement. I love it πŸ¦„β€οΈ

Mine is the ingenious triangle to stop horses throwing the roughage out πŸ˜‚
Theirs is the perfect square that is in alignment πŸ‘Œ

I've been told before by prospective clients that my yard is too big and they don't like to walk to fetch their horses. Well, Kathy just calls her two youngsters ❀️

And just like that, the farm went green ❀️
