Old Barn Stables

Old Barn Stables is a super versatile equestrian unit located on the outskirts of the village of High Littleton that would suit a variety of disciplines and requirements.

The yard has been set up by the current owners to suit their needs but could very easily be adapted for others. The barn currently comprises a secure tack room to one end and a stable at the other end. However, partitions could be installed to divide the barn to create up to four boxes. At the far end of the barn is an open fronted timber store that has been used for bedding and hay. Just to the side of this is a block built compound which would be ideal for a muck heap store. There is a further timber store to the side which has been used as machinery store.

Above the yard is a well constructed all weather school of approximately 20m x 40m and is enclosed on three sides with post and rail fencing and a grass bank on one long side. The surface has recently been updated with a sand and fibre mix.

A new triple open fronted timber field shelter lies just to the side of the school.

The yard is approached through a wide double wooden gate which leads to an area that gives space for parking a horse box or trailer.

The land

The land is predominantly sloping in aspect and is is held in one main enclosure with a boundary of a combintaiton of mature hedges and stock fencing. There are a number of mature trees giving good natural shelter. Temporary fencing has been used to divide the land into paddocks to enable a rotation of grazing.

Location

Old Barn Stables is in a great location for many equestrian pursuits with an excellent choice of training and competition venues close by including Mendip Plains at Ston Easton, Collective Equestrian at Chew Magna and Badgworth Arena at Axbridge.
