Welcome to Derrymore Farm. From the beginning, Derrymore Farm has built up a good
working relationship with all the major Irish stallion farms and can offer clients
the flexibility of a walk-in service for mares boarding on Derrymore Farm.
We are also present at all major Irish sales and can consign
to UK sales if needed.
Post-operative care and spelling of horses in training is
also available and a plan can be tailored to suit your horse’s individual needs.
The farm has a number of Duracorral pen enclosures which can be moved daily which allow your horse to graze but will restrict there movement so they cant extend themselves and so are ideal for post -operative care
Derrymore Farm is a small independent farm where bio security is paramount. All horses are isolated for 21 days upon arrival before joining the main herd, paddocks are rotated regularly and then grazed with sheep to reduce the worm burden. Grassland management is key to healthy
horses and so is one of the farms
highest priorities, all paddocks are chain harrowed and aerated each spring and are topped regularly during the summer months . The farm also has a detailed biodiversity plan in place nesting and owl boxes are placed through out the farm and small areas ( usually corners of paddocks which are fenced off ) are planted with wild flowers and native species which are allowed to go to seed and cut in the autumn
