N.E.W Equine Boots now in stock
We have been waiting a long time to be able to stock N.E.W Equine Wear horse boots. Following a rush for the boots over the Christmas period the manufacturers have struggled to keep up with demand as it out stripped supply.
Having now moved their product operations to a new facility the flow of boots to the trade has started again and we are delighted to finally be able to stock these excellent quality horse boots.
We currently have fleece lined brushing boots (front and rear), fleece lined open tendon boots and over-reach boots in stock, all of which are produced to the highest quality and have impressed us in terms of their strength, durability and styling.
If you are looking for some new boots for your horse or pony you wont go far wrong with these excellent products, all of which will be sure to last a very long time whilst performing to the highest standard.
Available from Orchard Stables online tack shop now.

Orchard Stables Retail Partnership
We are pleased to announce a new partnership between Orchard Stables and Wawne Stores and Post Office which will see the East Yorkshire village store in the rural village of Wawne selling horse tack on behalf of Orchard Stables.
For the first time the high quality equestrian products and horse related goods available through the online tack shop www.OrchardStables.co.uk will be available to customers to buy in store, bringing greater convenience to the horsey community of the village of Wawne and surrounding areas.
Wawne Stores is at the heart of Wawne village north of Hull in East Yorkshire. This family run shop and Post Office has a reputation for providing exceptional customer service and innovative products to the surrounding community making it an ideal partner for Orchard Stables to expand retail operations.
Whilst only a selection of Orchard Stables’ full product range is currently available in store due to space restrictions we will work hard to ensure that the stock available rotates regularly and allow customers to place orders for other products which can be delivered to the store for collection.
Wawne Stores and Post Office can be found on Main Street, Wawne, Hull, East Yorkshire HU7 5XH.
Product of the Week Reviewed – Equerry Boomerang Dandy Brush
This week’s product of the week from Orchard Stables is the Soft Touch Equerry Boomerang Dandy Brush, which is available for £4.50 in purple of blue.
 |
The Equerry Boomerang Dandy Brush contains fibre that is filled at an angle to provide a stiff brush in one direction and soft in the other. Equerry Soft-Touch brushes are ergonomically designed and are innovatively shaped for comfort. They are soft and warm feel across hand contact areas and are available in these two attractive colours.
This fantastic brush is not harsh to the horses coat like some dandy brushes and is excellent for removing mud from legs and dust from the body of the horse. |
The Equerry Boomerang Dandy Brush forms a major part of my mare Cleo’s grooming kit and is usually the first brush I use when she comes in from the field. The brush is strong, durable and good value for money.
Why not pick up an Equerry Boomerang Dandy today or recommend this product to a friend or yard member.

Badminton Horse Trials 2010
For those of you that attended, I hope you had a great weekend at Badminton Horse Trials. The team at Orchard Stables took time out to go to Badminton for cross country day on Sunday and what a great day out we had. Despite the mud and traffic, a good time was had by all and some fantastic cross country riding was observed.
We managed to see on the course many great riders including Mary King, Zara Phillips, Mark Todd, Daisy Berkeley (nee Dick) and of course this year’s deserved winner Paul Tapner. We were disappointed for Mary King who would have been the oldest winner the event has had in all the years it has been running, however a very respectable 4th place for her. We also take this opportunity to offer our condolences to Louisa Lockwood for the loss of her event horse Desert Island on Sunday with a broken fetlock, a truly special horse that will be greatly missed in the sport.
Don’t forget to check out Horse and Country TV Saturday 8th May for many hours of Badminton 2010 coverage.
Please let us know how you got on and your experiences at this year’s event by leaving us a comment.
