I was a little apprehensive after reading previous reviews but after doing a little more research realised that some of the forum reviews are outdated and for different people entirely!
I decided to risk it! Couldn’t have been happier! Sue was extremely helpful. Listened to what I was looking for and allowed me to view the horse I wanted to see. From start to finish she answered all of my questions open and honestly. Was accommodating with the vetting and arranged the transport because she knew where he was going. He is honestly the kindest most honest horse I’ve ever met. I truly couldn’t

I bought my ISH gelding from Sue and Dave. Alfie is everything they told me he would be - excellent in traffic - experienced hunter and point and go when jumping. They advised that he needed flatwork established and schooling on to get a proper outline. Sue gave me lessons in the arena which made me feel confident and keen on a bigger horse than I am used to. They kept Alf until he could be transported to Jersey and ordered tack that he arrived with. They are a genuine honest and experienced yard and an absolute pleasure to deal with. I cannot recommend them enough.

We will always be grateful for our wonderful Panda. We had been told what we were looking for was like ‘gold dust’ and after a lengthy search and many viewings Duckhurst delivered! Panda is exactly as described, a wonderful horse and exactly what we wanted and dreamed of. Highly recommend Duckhurst Farm.

We bought Millie in August 2017. She is super fun, as described in the advert. Needed some schooling by my then 12 1/2 year old daughter. But they’ve come on leaps and bounds. A true love affair and no longer head shy. Sue was right that my girl would get more out of Millie than the other lovely pony.

I had contacted sue after reading the positive reviews online. Unfortunately I can't do anything but leave a negative review after my own dealings with her. I had contacted sue about a grey mare she had, we arranged a date for me traveling by plane from Scotland to London Gatwick, to then hire a car to travel to see her. I also sent the confirmation details to her to assure her we were definitely coming, at a cost of almost £400. I received a text message at 5.18pm the night before we were due to fly down saying she had sold the mare that day. I hadn't even been advised anyone else was due to
