We are looking for a wonderful person to join our family, this is a live in position offering 30 hours a week just outside Great Somerford. For us the right fit is more important than amount of experience.

The role is loosely 10 hours housekeeping and 20 hours children based and includes keeping the house clean and tidy, laundry, occasional cooking, school runs, play dates and after school clubs, preparing tea, bathtime and having fun! Each day will be different but the week will very much will run as a routine. 3 full days, and 2 half days to include some Saturday help in the winter.  We have 2 happy children, Eliza is 7 and Algy is 4 so both will be at school during the day but will be at different schools so it will be a divide and conquer with me. We have a fun and busy life in a rural setting, both parents working but mainly from home, horses, dogs and country life. The live in accommodation is a private bright airy garden flat and we are open to also having your partner and dog. Experience with ponies would be really helpful but not essential.

Must be kind and caring with a can do attitude and crucially responsible and reliable. Good driver important and car to be included. Start date 1 September.

Please whatsapp or email Tor 07870999334 / tortyjd@gmail.com to discuss further.

I am looking for a horse to hack, ideally around 15.2hh but will consider smaller/larger, gelding or non-mareish mare. I’d prefer something older and am happy to consider fully disclosed injuries or ailments.

To be kept at a small private yard in Sherston with two other horses where it will want for nothing! Happy to buy or loan.

I’m looking for something around 16’2, or bigger. Wide and gentle to amble around the countryside. Ideally to travel and hack well alone but will live with others at home.

Forever home offered but could be shorter term if suits all.
