Top quality cobs, bred from old proven blood lines producing quality stock.

Caederwen stud was founded in 1999, shortly after I left school. I had always been inspired by the Welsh ponies and cobs at an early age. At 8 years old I was very fortunate to start off as a "stable hand" for David and Janet brake of the Penycrug stud, also having the opportunity to show many of their cobs and my love for the Welsh ponies and cobs has grown from there.

In 1999 we purchased the Welsh cob mare "Kestos Ceridwen“ (Derwen Royal Express x Cascob Margeret Go Bang) from Mr Davies of the Tregare stud. Ceri as she is known needs no introduction to the show ring, she was the youngstock champion at Glanusk stallion show in 1992 as a yearling, and has since been a regular winner at many shows.

Also in 1999, after a visit to the Welsh cob sales at Builth Wells, saw the purchase of the Welsh cob stallion Cathedine Flying Express. Fly as he is known has brought me so much pleasure in and out of the show ring. Himself a winner of 7 premiums at Lampeter stallion show and numerous WPCS medals, as well as being a consistent prize winner at the Royal Welsh show. Fly is now in his early twenties is still siring stock of the highest quality, some of you may have seen them where they have gone on to be prize winners at Lampeter, Glanusk, Royal Welsh and many shows abroad.

Also in 2005 we purchased the lovely Cascob Jack Flash ( Trevallion Temeraire x Cascob Heledd ) from his breeder Mrs M Edwards who we bought in to cross on our Express daughters.

At present we keep around 6 broodmares and around 5 young stock following on behind them. Most will be descendants of the Parc studs Royal Welsh champions Parc Lady and Parc Rachel. Our foals are offered for sale both privately and also annually at the Welsh cob sales in Builth Wells.
HOPE YOU ENJOY YOUR VISIT!
