WELCOME TO
MAESCOED FARM
100 ARCES OF GLORIOUS WELSH COUNTRYSIDE
Retirement Livery
“Come now gal, time for a stretch, a drink at the pool and a bit on the side of the road”
There’s always been horses at Maescoed, most recently Welsh section D cobs, previously, rascally pony club games ponies, before that the remnants of Dads mare from when he was young, and before those, the farm horses, the wooden poles that held their harness are still here, their horseshoes still at the barn door, or frequently ploughed up, from tiny donkey shoes, to giant cart horse ones. Fancy, were not. What we are is a farm, with big skies, shady trees, meadows, and spring water, straw eds and soft hay.
When you are looking for somewhere quiet, for your horse to retire to, where do you start, what is it that they need? If its peace and quiet with a friend next door, long lazy days, stretched out, crisp nights tucked in, then look no further, we currently only have room for a maximum of 4 retirees, plus our own Section a (she will be the boss!), going up to 8 at the end of 2024, our package includes ad lib hay, straw beds, mucking out, farrier trims, carrots and apples, lump salt and feeding any hard feed. Vets, dentistry, medicine giving and specialist care is all extra, as is hard feed.
If that sounds like the retirement your loyal companion deserves, please get in touch with Hayley on 01874 754211, or email info@hansonandco.co.uk. Current fees are £10 per day per horse, payable by DD weekly
Flowers
Imagine a field on a warm day, unusual and heritage breeds of tulips and daffodils, delicate sweet peas and roses, if you’re a local florist and you want to wow your customers with something different and unusual, look no further, welcome to out pick your own flowers, especially for florists.
What happens if we don’t sell them? They get bunched up and sold at the end of our lane, what happens if we still don’t sell them? They go in my home and then, they are plucked and dried on the aga to turn into the most beautiful confetti!
Cattle
SO, in case you hadn’t noticed, we really like cows, I mean REALLY like them!
We run a herd of British Blue and British Blue crosses, mainly Dairy x Blue, we find the blue cows productive and great mothers, as well as kind natured, though they are, quite stubborn! We sell our annual draft of Bull calves after weaning around April, and heifers usually the following month
Wedding Field Hire
DO you long for a wedding that’s different? Peaceful, intimate, a bit wild, with bare toes in the grass?
