The Horse Lover Gift Guide

Do you have a horse lover in your life and you’re not sure what to buy them for Christmas or do you just fancy treating yourself? At Farm & Country we’ve got all your equestrian needs covered. 

We’re horse owners ourselves so we share your passion and understand how unwrapping a present for your horse that you’ve been wanting all year can fill you with excitement and joy. We hope you manage to make it through your Christmas dinner before you’re running outside to use some of these amazing gifts. 

Grooming

Grooming can be very therapeutic, and there is nothing more satisfying than seeing your horse looking their best after the labour of love, even if it only lasts until their next roll in the mud.

Magicbrush

This brush can withstand being stepped on by your horse, it may look pretty but don’t let that fool you, it is also virtually indestructible. They’re ideal for cleaning the frog and are gentle on the more sensitive areas of the hoof.

It will remove mud and grass stains from your horse's legs whilst being gentle on their joints. It can be used on all horse hair types and whilst shampooing. Don’t just use it on your horse's coat, this versatile brush can be used to remove hair from saddle pads and rugs and it's even machine washable. 

Protack Grooming Box

Bitz Massage Grooming Mitt

Give your horse a gift this Christmas, the gift of a relaxing massage. With metal balls on one side and nodules on the other to offer a softer massage effect.
