I was doing my routine house search on the net yesterday and came across quite a few houses with 1/2 - 1 acre of garden with stables and a small paddock area, and part of me did wonder how they managed and they must keep the horses stabled for a large amount of time.
I then saw a house in a local village for sale with a large garden that could easily accommodate a couple of stables and a small paddock area.
Part of me wondered it would be possible to keep 2 of the girls there and keep the others in the rented land we have at the moment till we found some closer to the house (not exactly the smallholding we wanted though).
I was thinking about a track system and strip grazing the grass in the middle.
Has anyone ever kept a couple of horses in a garden or similar?
