We are passionate about horses and spending our days working with them is a dream come true. This passion is reflected in the regular feedback we receive from our clients. We've included some of the comments we have received below:

HEADMORE 1

Helen McArthur and Muddly

When we moved our horse, Muddly, into Headmore Farm he was instantly made welcome and so were we. Everyone at the yard is so friendly it makes it a really enjoyable place to spend your spare time. Most importantly though the quality of care given to the horses is first class. The horses come first and that was exactly what we wanted. Sarah and Alice care for Muddly as if he were their own and you can’t ask more than that!

My horse and I have been a 'happy livery' client at Headmore for over two years and I really wish I had discovered the yard earlier. The livery service is professional, caring and friendly. Sarah, Alice and Headmore staff are always willing to impart help and knowledge when required.

Amanda Paynter and Prince

We moved to the Headmore Stud on full livery over 18 months ago - the best "horsey" decision we have ever made! Of course the facilities are excellent and our horse is very well looked after, but even more important to us was the immediate sense of family, friendship and complete professionalism. This was just what we were looking for. Nothing is too much trouble – the whole family and staff want you to enjoy your time with your horse. The horse we brought to Headmore proved unsuitable for our daughter and the Oppenheimers couldn't have been more supportive. They found a suitable buyer without advertising, and found another, suitable horse – all within a month!

Our daughter takes lessons with Sarah and we have found these very effective. The years of experience of breeding and competing, jumping and of course famously dressage has given Sarah a great feel for what’s best for every horse rider combination.

All in all they have given us more than we could have wished for in their livery service.

I have kept horses at Headmore Farm for over 12 years. They have always been cared for to the highest standards and all as individuals. The yard is very friendly and professionally run with excellent facilities. My 10 year old mare, who I bought from Sarah as a week old foal is very happy there and I'm sure she wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

I had a mid-life crisis aged 40, and decided to learn to ride, and thank goodness I ended up at Headmore Farm. I had bought an entirely unsuitable horse, which Sarah took in her stride. Thankfully, they were able to lend me a more sensible horse, teach me to ride, and help me move on from my first disaster, until with their help, I finally found and bought lovely Kelly, a Connemara cross dressage mare. Alice competed Kelly for me, while I had all of the pleasure of watching them winning, and none of the stress. Seven years later, I still have Kelly, as well as Ria – a four year old in dressage training, Penny – a 12hh pony for my 10 year daughter, and the newest addition, Finn – a gorgeous dun foal of Kelly’s but born to a surrogate mare after embryo transfer. I cannot emphasise enough how welcome they have always made me feel, despite my lack of knowledge, and nothing is ever too much trouble. I cannot conceive of ever moving my horses anywhere else.
