The Yard is situated in a semi-rural location in between the villages of Ticehurst and Wadhurst in East Sussex. The property offers a rare opportunity to purchase a well-equipped equestrian smallholding with permission for use as a riding school, with land extending in all to some 8.61 acres.
A secure gated access from the High Street (B2099) leads to a contained hardcore parking area.

Situated around the yard are a significant range of timber frame stable blocks on a concrete base with concrete apron, providing 13 loose boxes, a tack room, together with a small pole barn to the rear for hay storage.
A 40m x 20m manège is also located adjacent to the stables, alongside a 20ft steel container and a toilet block, which will remain in situ.
Situated around the yard are six broadly level and well drained grazing paddocks, each with individual water troughs and sub-divided by stock proof fencing. To the rear of the yard is a small isolation paddock. Of the 8.61 acres, approximately 2.5 acres comprises woodland situated on the southern and western boundaries of the land.
Planning permission was granted under reference RR/2014/3109/P for the “Change of use of existing equestrian premises to a riding school”. This permission allows for five, one-hour, one-to-one lessons per day, 5 days per week.
