Manor Meadows Retirement Livery is a family-run retirement livery yard based in Cobham, Surrey. The yard specialises in full grass livery for retired ponies and smaller horses up to 16hh, providing a calm environment focused on the needs of older equines rather than working or competition horses.
Owners who are looking for a long-term home for a retired horse or pony will find the yard's approach centred on natural herd living. Horses are kept together in established groups, allowing them to express normal social behaviour and movement throughout the day. This setup suits ponies and small horses that have come to the end of their ridden careers and need consistent, low-stress care.
The facilities have been arranged with the practical needs of retired horses in mind. Permanent pasture forms the basis of turnout, supported by a mud-free dry lot area for use in wetter months and a natural shelter within the fields. An outdoor winter feeding area allows routine feeding without disturbing the grazing, and an emergency stable is available on site should a horse require short-term box rest or closer monitoring. Parking is provided for owners visiting their horses.
Manor Meadows holds ABRS approved livery yard status and is connected with a BHS accredited professional coach, giving owners additional reassurance about the standard of care on offer. The yard operates on a full grass livery basis, with retirement grass livery forming the core service.
