The start of the 2024 eventing season is now just around the corner, with our first event, Poplar Park in Suffolk, on 2nd March. The ground over on the east coast is very sandy and well drained, so holds up well to the rain in March.

The majority of our horses have been back in work since just before Christmas, and so we are well under way with our pre-season fitness work. We will have plenty of trips out schooling to blow the cobwebs away before March.

Sarah and I, at Team Way Eventing, have got a really good string of talented horses for the coming season, with five horses running at 4* level and above, followed up by an exciting bunch of young horses.

As Head of Butler Sherborn Equestrian, if you require a confidential market appraisal or any property advice, do get in touch.

Currently, in the UK, on average one in three house sales fall through. This is often due to surprises during a conveyance, and buyer fatigue at the length the process can take. There are simple steps Sellers and Buyers can take in advance to help ensure the process is as smooth as possible. The key approach is to reduce as many ‘sales irritants’ as you can and to be well prepared in advance. Unexpected matters will inevitably arise, but with plenty of preparation these will be easier to resolve.

Cotswold Residential Market - Stow-on-the-Wold – Helen Whitfield

The residential market around Stow-on-the-Wold has been incredibly active during this current period of political uncertainty, and there have been some notable sales. Many properties are still selling privately under competitive bidding. That being said, the headline guide price needs to be realistic, and the best results are still on the turnkey properties.
