Testimonials

At Charles Equestrian, we work tirelessly to ensure the welfare of our horses and satisfaction of our clients, and are proud  of our reputation. If you are looking for a fantastic new home for your horse, come and meet our clients and discuss their experiences! Here is some typical feedback we receive:

After only ever having my horses at home or on yards that I was 'in charge' of, I found myself having to search for livery yards when I moved to Surrey. I was dreading it. Thankfully I met Pat Charles who I felt immediately understood what I was looking for and in a very short time I found Pat to be trustworthy,flexible, honest, knowledgable and hardworking.  Due to my sometimes unpredictable working hours I know that my boy will be cared for properly when I can't do it myself, this is a massive weight off my mind. Pat ranks very highly in my estimation and I would not hesitate in recommending Charles Equestrian.

I have kept two horses with Pat and both have received the utmost care and attention. Pat does exactly as she promises, never cuts corners and is completely trustworthy. I have never had to worry about my horses with Pat, she has a wealth of experience and always has the horses best interests at heart. Client Helen P

Reference:  I kept my young horse with Pat for about 9mths during which time he was looked after brilliantly, he was extremely relaxed and happy in the yard from day one.  Pat really does pay attention to the smallest detail, whether a rug strap is undone or if your horse isn't quite right, it will be noticed.  And on those occasions that work calls and you cannot make it to the yard, Pat was on hand to save the day.   Pat is very patient and calm around horses and puts them first, often doing things for people that are beyond the call of duty.  Sadly I have had to move my horse at the moment due to pregnancy, but I miss Pat and all the other liveries, all such nice people who really care about their horses and each other.

"I have had horses stabled with Charles Equestrian for nearly 5 years and wouldn't want anyone else to look after them. The horses definitely come first and their owners a close second. Pat and her team are calm and professional and nothing is too much trouble, I never hesitate to ask her anything however trivial it may seem to me whether it's something for my horse or for me.....and the kettle is always ready for a cup of tea!  I would not hesitate to recommend Charles Equestrian to competition and pleasure riders alike". Client Gilly M

"Pat provides very personal and individual livery services.  She is very hands on and very conscientous. I would trust her 100% with my horses". Client Sara F

“ The livery service your horse would choose!! Pat at Charles Equestrian has looked after about 6 of our horses through a 10 year period, her attention to detail is second to none. Her calm sensible approach works brilliantly with nervous horses and youngsters, and she is excellent at breaking young horses and riding them away. If you are looking for a "home from home" for your horse, and are fed up with the run of the mill livery that do not give your horse the care he/she deserves then move immediately to Charles Equestrian!” Client Lisa N 

“5 star livery!  I have owned my horse for 12 years and kept her at many different livery yards during this time. I can honestly say that the standard of care is second to none! I would recommend wholeheartedly keeping your horse here. The yard is professional yet relaxed and friendly and Pat is also a brilliant teacher”.

“Pat Charles is truly dedicated and conscientious, kind and caring in every way. Nothing is too much trouble, and she is always calm and smiling. The stables are kept immaculately, every horse is treated as she would her own, the hacking is fantastic, and Charles Equestrian gets a very high recommendation from me! “ Client Fiona D

“I have worked with Patricia for over 7 years now and she is the most kind and caring person I have met. She ensures that all the clients and their horses have the best service possible and no request is too difficult to deal with. The clients and horses are all dealt with as individuals and the livery services available are tailored to suit them. Everyone at the yard are very friendly and welcoming, I would definitely recommend coming over and have a visit”. Staff Member Natalie T
