At Elvingston, we strive to provide your mare with the highest possible standard of care.  Very experienced and responsible staff care for the horses.  You can rest assured that your horse will be treated as an individual, and handled with the greatest care and respect.  We aim to keep horses calm, stress free and happy throughout their stay, with welfare being our top priority.  We have 24-hour supervision, and are privileged to be in a very quiet, secluded and secure location.

 
 

Below is a table of livery charges for visiting mares at Elvingston Stud.  The fields are securely fenced with white electric tape and plain wire.  Each field has plenty of shelter, shade, a broad-spectrum mineral lick, and an automatic water trough.  The fencing and water is routinely checked every day, and the grazing is regularly rotated to keep it fresh and nutritious.  Restricted grazing available if required.

All horses are wormed on arrival, and every 6 weeks thereafter.  The horses are checked thoroughly twice daily.  Mares are turned out in suitably matched groups.  Individual turnout can be provided for the mare if preferred.
