Potten Farm Equestrian operates as a full livery yard near Rickmansworth in Hertfordshire, built around an Equicentral system of group, outdoor herd living. The yard focuses on keeping horses in a social, pasture-based environment rather than traditional individual stabling, while still providing covered accommodation and shelter for routine care and veterinary needs.
The facilities centre on a 30m x 60m sand and fibre arena fitted with mirrors, irrigation, floodlights and dressage boards, giving year-round schooling space regardless of weather. Riders can also use 3km of off-road grass riding tracks, a lunge pen, and a 60m x 20m sand school for general work. Hacking from the yard reaches quiet local lanes and bridleways, and the school accommodates dressage schooling alongside pleasure riding.
Indoor infrastructure includes an American barn with day stables and dry cross ties, all-weather loafing areas, hospital loafing areas, automatic water troughs, a cold water outdoor wash down and an indoor wash down with solarium lights. An indoor client lounge offers refreshments and wifi, and there is lorry parking on site. Services available to liveries cover clipping, grooming, hand walking, lunging, ground work, hacking, schooling and tack cleaning, and the yard occasionally hosts clinics such as Mary Wanless Ride With Your Mind sessions. The site also rents out art studios, reflecting its broader rural character.
Potten Farm Equestrian is located in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, in the East of England, with the postcode WD3 4NQ. Riders interested in full livery, dressage or hacking can contact the yard directly to discuss availability, herd groupings and clinic dates.
