Customer Comments...
All Barnsby's products are beautifully made from the best leather and offer my horses complete comfort - I wouldn't use any other brand.
Ben Maher
Ben is veteran thoroughbred who is prone to dropping weight, especially in winter, which alters his body shape and affects the fit of his saddle. He is used for general hacking, leisure riding and occasional lessons with both me and my daughter. "I was especially impressed with the thoroughness of Barnsby's approach, taking the time to talk through the needs of horse and rider before making any recommendations about the right saddle for them both. This helped to ensure that no detail was missed and that Ben has the right saddle for his work and changing physique. As Ben is a veteran thoroughbred, finding a comfortable saddle which fits us both was a challenge. James from Barnsby went to a great deal of trouble to match us with the right GP saddle which we'll use for both hacking and lessons. The saddle was a great fit from day one and I'm impressed with the quality of the product generally. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for a thorough and professional service."

Teddy is a one off! Not tall at 16.2hh, everything else about him is Big with a capital B: he's the horse which has re-written saddlery size charts. As such, Jane took the decision to have all of his tack made to measure. The bespoke service offered by Barnsby proved perfect for their needs. Items made to measure include his bridle with its 30" plus noseband, extra long cheeks and browband, and his 64" girth which is elasticated at both ends and padded with sheepskin to allow Teddy to move in comfort. . Teddy is short coupled and has the massive shoulders and flat back typical of many draught breeds. Getting a saddle to fit was a construction challenge, needing a specially designed and built tree and a special seat to accommodate the rider. The saddle needed to allow Teddy space to move through his shoulders and provide Jane with a secure base for hacking, flat work and jumping. His bridle was also bespoke to accommodate his wide brow and jaw. This was the second time Jane has called on Barnsby for help with saddle fitting issues. Her previous horse - a big boned and big moving warm blood - was also fitted with a made to measure jumping saddle. The service she received then, meant that Jane had every confidence in Barnsby's ability to fit Teddy up with comfortable, well made and correctly fitting tack. "I've received really great service from Barnsby on both occasions I've dealt with them. Although my previous horse wasn't such a difficult shape, the service I received last year gave me the confidence to ask them to help with Teddy's special needs. They certainly rose to this saddlery challenge! James went to huge amount of trouble to get Teddy into well fitting tack, happily making numerous return visits to check and correct the fit. The result is beautifully built tack which looks great but - more importantly - allows him to work well in comfort. This has given me the confidence to really explore his potential. We are both now benefitting from all the effort, sound advice and attention to detail which Barnsby put in."
