About the yard
Whiterails sits in the middle of a working farm a few miles from Norwich, and has been running DIY and full livery for many years. It is British Horse Society approved, and says it has been inspected every year since 2003.
Full livery covers feeding, hay, turnout and bringing in, mucking out with straw bedding, a daily basic groom and the horse being rugged up for the night. Haylage costs a small extra, and shavings are charged per bale used. Part livery shares the work, and the yard will mix days to suit, for example full care on weekdays and DIY at weekends.
DIY livery is one all-inclusive price for a stable, an assigned pasture, hay and straw, and access to the rides, arenas, horse walker and solarium. The arenas are a 60 by 30 all-weather school and a 40 by 20 sand school, both floodlit, plus an indoor school for bad weather.
Turnout
The yard has designated spring, summer and winter paddocks. When the ground is too wet the horse goes in the walker or on hard standing.
