Claire manages Ingold lodge daily herself, and with her experience she is able to offer nursing care under the direction of your preferred Veterinary Surgeon. We have a vast amount of experience in many equine conditions such as Laminitis, colic, lameness, arthritis, navicular disease, tendon injuries etc. We can offer you a bespoke care package upon discharge from an equine hospital or veterinary care, or simply to care for and help manage underlying conditions or long term illness.
Rehabilitation Care is provided by an experienced caring team here at Ingold Lodge, which includes Claire. We are located within 5 minutes travel of Animed Equine Hospital, 15 minutes from Portsmouth harbour ferry crossings, and just 25 minutes from both The Liphook Equine Hospital and Southampton Airport. We are also pleased to offer equine rehabilitation care for clients horses based in the Channel Islands too, owners from Jersey or Guernsey can easily visit their horse with us and accommodation can be arranged.
Horses can have controlled individual turnout in restricted paddock areas next to one and other to ensure they are kept as calm as possible and risk of injury reduced. They can have the choice of either spacious stables to support mobility or smaller stables to restrict it depending on the animals needs. A careful regular routine will be provided for your horse. They are also able to use the horse walker for gentle exercise where this would be beneficial to them, the walker has a soft surface and large circumference.
We are also pleased to be able to offer the services of highly acclaimed Equine Dentist Mr. Martin Walls BAEDT cert EqD here at Ingold Lodge. We can also offer regular physiotherapy and massage, specialist farriar and veterinary care from one of the country’s finest Equine Hospitals, The Liphook Equine Hospital.

Our aim is to provide your horse with all its requirements. We will provide an affordable bespoke package to suit your needs and give you peace of mind knowing your horse is being cared for to the highest standards.
After a year of struggling with my young horse Leo with multiple issues managing gastric ulcers and a laminitis (EMS induced) attack I found Ingold Lodge and both my vet and I are delighted with Leo's progress, the facilities are amazing here, his exercise levels have increased, carefully managed grazing and feed regime have changed our lives he is now off of his EMS medication and a much better weight I can't thank Claire and the team here for his immaculate care enough :)

Case study:- Keratoma treatment
Checka - a horse with hoof keratoma discharged from Liphook Equine Hospital to us here at Ingold Lodge in July 2017 following his surgery. He was on box rest with regular dressing changes, but with our monitored and easily accessible very restricted, dry turnout paddocks he was able to enjoy some field time every day too! You can see the rate of growth and healing from the photos. He is now back home with his owners following just 3 months successful rehabilitation care!
