“Buying a cob from Farringtons”

★★★★★

written by Tasshie on 13/02/2013

I went to farringtons coloured cobs as a rider who had lost my nerve and needed something rock steady and bomb proof to try and regain some of it. The staff there, particularly [name removed], were so helpful and kind and made completely sure that I bought the right cob for me. They also give you a guarantee where you can return the horse within a suitable time limit if it turns out to be not what they say, however, I was astonished to read that someone is 'taking them to the small claims court' but didn't explain why. All of their cobs are rideen out on the main road and under the railway bridge and are more or less bomb proof - you only need to read the many happy 'testimonials' on their web site. I have recommended Farringtons to many of my horsey friends and those who have ourchased have also been delighted with the horse purchased and the warm welcome and openness of [name removed] and her team. I did not pay a fortune for my cob, however she is worth a fortune to me and compared with other web sites all of their horses are well priced.

Farringtons do not give a guarantee at all. Check out there website it clearly stated its your problem if the horse if not what we said. I would not trust them as far as i could throw them.

There are no guarantees with anything in life and know that they do exchange if the horse is not what they say. I had a horse from them a year ago and he has proved to be a real gentle, loving cob. I think with all animals it takes time for horses to settle and for you to bond with your horse some people expect this to happen overnight. I have had a good experience with Farrington's and would not hesitate to recommend them. All companies have good and bad feed back my advice is make your own mind up.

I also agree that it take time for horses to settle in but you only have to read the reviews on this site and a number of others, the people who have good horses which you could count on one hand got lucky the rest of the people that got a rubbish deal and left with horses that have been bought from a sale and broken quickly then sold as confidence givers are no so lucky. This dealer should not be selling horses they dont care for them and they dont care who gets them children, grannies people with nervous issues they just want your money. Good luck to who ever buys one you gonna need it.
