ULLA​​

Uline du Pré Fleurie, a registered Comtois mare, joined us in February 2023.  She works on the farm, is ridden Western and took over driving duties from Jack (see In Memoriam).  The Comtois is a very old draught breed from France with very few in the UK as yet.  They are shorter than many draught horses but just as powerful, if not more so.  Her full name being rather a mouthful, she is known as Ulla (Oola).

She enjoys hacking out, being ridden Western.

Ulla is enjoying starting to drive.

RADAGAST​​

Radagast is the latest arrival, coming to Berllan in July 2024 aged 12 months.  He was bred by the wonderful Hitch In Farm who run their farm with horse power and specialise in breeding healthy work horses with great temperaments.  Rads, as he is known, is half Ardennes, quarter Percheron and quarter cob.  When the time is right Rads will start work as a driving, Western riding and work horse.  He is now a two-year old and is proving to be very calm and trainable.
