It was lovely to see all your splendid ponies, they look even better in the flesh. We really were impressed with the foals.

Thank you for allowing the group of Dutch students to visit your farm. Dionis was really impressed with all your ponies and felt it was just the place to bring these interested young people. They really enjoyed their time with you and were especially impressed with the temperament of your stock.

Just a note to say thank you so much for taking time out of your busy lives to show me all your wonderful ponies. They are all gorgeous and the foals, well they are just beautiful. It was such a pleasure to be up close to them and being able to stroke them, something I have not been able to do for a long time, it was very therapeutic. Animals seem to be wonderful creatures when it comes to being with disabled/ill people I have found. They just seem to sense it. The last youngster was so lovely and made me smile as John was scratching him he was obviously loving it so much. I think all your ponies are a credit to you both and the way you handle them and they respond just goes to show that you care greatly for them

I just thought you might like to know about my daughters pony, who is proving to be a lovely chap!!!! His name is Hollybrooke Diplomat or Dippy as he is known. We are a novice family and have been learning as we go but Dippy has been such a gentle patient star and my daughter who is 11 loves him to pieces. He puts up with me having riding lessons on him, will stand all day (with hay net) whilst my daughter perfects the art of plaiting. He very happily turns his hoof to what ever we ask of him!

We are so proud of Hollybrooke Aristocrat. We have just got back from dressage and he won both his tests so he now has 2 trophies as well! He went beautifully and is already earmarked for PC area dressage teams next year!!

I would like to say congratulations for you. I was seeing your lovely colt at Breed Show! Also during the past years I have seen your ponies at Breed Show and it has been pleasure to see them at the show.

Hollybrooke Tequila is known as "Honey" here and we have been absolutely thrilled with her. She is Honey by name and Honey by nature. I bought her last year as a project for my daughter to break in and bring on. They have done pony club, farm rides, local shows and hunted all of last season with the Cheshire Forest Hunt. Honey has remained sensible and great fun throughout.

Hollybrooke Aristocrat has had a busy weekend. Dressage yesterday, they took the highest placed 12 and under so he has his first rosette! He did a good test scoring a couple of 8's and some very complimentary comments from the judge who also said what a lovely pony. He has been show jumping this morning at a pc rally. He is enjoying his jumping and proving to be very agile. We love Aristocrat so much he really is one in a million. He has so many admirers here. We always make sure they know he’s a Hollybrooke pony.

Thank you for the nice reception from the Dutch Group of New Forest pony lovers, I made some nice pictures. The opinion of most of them was that did see at your place, the best ponies they had seen in these days.
BV Holland - July 2010

I want to thank you for showing your ponies to us. We had a wonderful time at your place. The Dutch people liked your ponies very much. They were very impressed by your stallions and also the young stock in the field. Thank you very much and I hope to see you again some time and good luck with your ponies!
IZ Holland - July 2010

Thank you both for you time and patience today, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to your inspirational stud and meeting your beautiful happy horses.

I just wanted to say thank you for your time on Saturday morning. My mum and I have a lovely morning at your stud. It was really nice of you to show us each of your gorgeous stallions, foals and young stock. The temperament of all your ponies was a real credit to you and your breeding.
