    i was just wondering if anyone knows a cheap place for livery around Dunshaughlin. Im not looking for anything fancy or with loads of facilities, just something basic. Thanks

    well to be fair you wnt get anything btr, livery nowadays is from 100 - 150 depending on location. its not worth the yard doing half...

    unless you rent a few boxes and do livery yourself? i have my fella in full livery in sligo at 100 a week im very lucky. i have two massive arenas 2 crosscountries, declan the owner is a european sliver medalist and is always there to help you out etc...

    i have woods 20mins up the road and miles and miles of beaches.. i love it.

    it actually costs less at full livery than doing it yourself if you add up all the costs and not having an facilities etc..

    I find that hard to believe. I used to pay 25 euro weekly diy livery. Granted that was a lucky find, but diy livery is still definitely cheaper than full imo.

    it is of course cheaper but it depends on your situation... i mean do you have the time to muck out, feed general labour work, in harsh winter nights and mornings, dnt get me wrong if i had my own stables id be rolling my sleeves up but not for driving out and spending evening on yuchy tasks when i should be bonding with my steed!!

    im ten mins from my yard and my horse is soo well looked after couldnt ask for better, all i do is stroll up hugs and kisses for cliff and spend my valueable hour or so riding and givin him tlc... believe me my hundred euro is hard worked for but hes worth it.

    different strokes for different folks!!
