Dartan
Andalucian who has totally changed personality since he reitred here. He used to be a Spanish army mount and was handy with his teeth and heels. Now he licks your face though none of us ever totally trust him when he does that!
Zac
This horse is 17.2 hh and eats a huge amount of food. He has wintered better this year as he's learned to spend most of his time stuffing his face..
Grazing in colours
yes, they really do. this group is chesnuts, coloureds, greys and ablack and a spotty. Not a bay in sight.
hiding behind the black and white bum...
yes, It's Charlie...luckily there isn't much grass to speak of so he's ok wandering round for now.

Tread carefully..
It's difficult to avoid them when virtually the whole field is covered with primroses.
Primrose Hill
This is my favourite place on the whole farm, once you go through this old gate there is a secret wood on the right full of primroses then bluebells, a little stream waterfalls through it, and the area has been untouched for many years.The views are constantly changing, today the local Hunt were on the hillside opposite, the hound music carried on the breeze, a buzzard was floating on the air currents (poor lad he is mateless after his partner died) and the baby rabbits were hooping about un-afraid because they see few humans.
I spent ages just leaning on the gate admiring the view, and feeling grateful I live here.
