So today’s the day that we say goodbye to our beautiful pony, Muis. Fortunately not in sadness, but rather with great pride as he heads off to Gauteng where he starts his competitive career....
We know Muis is a champ already, but he’s destined to go far and make his new owner very proud indeed 😊
Go well my boy... we look forward to celebrating your successes with you 🍀

HOWBERRY HILLS DERBY LEAGUE 2020

Saturday 29th February

Howberry Hills will be hosting its first annual Derby League fo 2020 and beyond. This will be an unafilliated event so no SAEF or club afilliation is required.

The league aims to encourage all levels of riders to take part and to encourage horse and rider combinations to progress up the heights throughout the league.

There will be 4 qualifying events throughout the year and 1 Finals event at the end of the year.
Prizes and floating trophies will be awarded to the overall league winner with the most points and to the Victor Lodorum. A prize will also be awarded to the most improved horse and rider combination.
In order to qualify for the finals each horse and rider combination needs to have participated in at least 2 of the events.

Rosettes and prizes will be awarded at each event.

**To keep things as fair as possible, each class must have a minimum of 4 entries to qualify for league and victor lodorum entries.

**The Derby will be held in the large “cross country” arena and our Show Jumping arena will be used as a warm up arena.

NB. WE WILL ALSO BE HOSTING A SHOW JUMPING TRAINING DAY ON SUNDAY THE 1ST OF MARCH :)

Please remember to bring your umbrellas for shade. The kiosk will be open as usual serving delicious food and drinks.

Please WhatsApp Amber for entries on 0651882236 🙂

We are extremely excited to announce our very own REVOLUTIONARY LIVERY CONCEPT to all recreational riders in the Plett / Knysna area.

To those who want to improve their riding without the mental or financial strain associated with owning a pony, and those who want to improve their horse or pony’s capabilities and aspire to participate in provincial, national or international competitions with coaching by top professional trainer Amber Baker and her team in an atmosphere of fun and enjoyment.

To those wanting their horses kept in excellent condition living happily as close to nature as possible on 24 hectares of lush river frontage grazing with arenas, cross country tracks, tack room, tuck shop, grooms, incredibly beautiful outrides into the surrounding hills. To those wanting to join our riding school of more than 36 kids from the greater Plett area, who are considering leasing or owning their own pony one day, in an environment where regular recreational and training shows take place in multiple disciplines, along with frequent holiday camps and clinics, with expert care 24/7, unlimited access, and on one of the most beautiful, quiet and safe equestrian estates far and wide, where the fun and comradery never ends, politics has no place and all this, and above all, at a cost equal to the cost of keeping a horse or pony in your own back yard !.... IMPOSSIBLE ?

NOPE ….. we’re “thinking out of the horsebox”

Therefore, having your horse or pony living at Howberry Hills will cost you only the cost of feed, feeding, grooming, while the cost of basic care, deworming, dipping against ticks, equine first aid, regular barefoot Farrier trimming by one of the very best barefoot specialists in the country, and so on, are INCLUDED !!! …and it’s NOT DIY…

Now that’s REVOLUTIONARY IN OUR OPINION

YOUR “EXTRA COSTS” ARE UP TO YOU….. For example, Vets, participation in clinics, shows, lessons, holiday camps, backing and training young horses… and so on….

We encourage positive reinforcement, natural horsemanship, clicker training, bit-less riding, all of which lead to incredible results in all aspects of horsemanship, including competition.

OUR AIM is simply to enable many more Plettonians to take up riding, own or lease a horse or pony and keep it healthy and happy WITHOUT IT BREAKING THE BANK, while bringing owners and their steeds together in one magnificent, safe and expertly run equestrian facility where shows frequently take place, friends enjoy trail rides together into the surrounding hills and cross pollination occurs naturally amongst all levels of riders every single day. As our motto states, “CREATING CHAMPIONS NATURALLY”.

So, for your horse or Pony to live here, your monthly HH Livery will cost you R1750, plus a monthly Winter Feed Levy for the months of June, July, August and September of R300, when even privately you would need to increase and supplement their feed to compensate for the reduced nutritional value of the grazing.

YES, AT LAST you can now afford to own or lease a horse or Pony….. Your children will thank you for the rest of their lives ….. That’s for sure…

We also have various special packages available which include lessons for example, at preferential rates for our Livery clients at shows, clinics and holiday camps, and so on….

The best is simply to whatsapp either AMBER on 062 843 8822 or ANDY on 079 520 7607 with any questions.

Unfortunately, to protect our grazing and ensure the best quality of life possible for all our horses, we will limit the number of horses on the estate…. So, it’s “1st come, 1st served”

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this and we hope to welcome you here soon.
