Tivoli Stud specialises in the breeding and producing of performance Connemara ponies. We both breed our own stock and acquire mares, stallions and colts to build out bloodlines with different characteristics.
Our focus is to produce well balanced, mentally and physically, capable ponies that are a joy in the yard as well as in highly competitive environments.
Our ethos is to ensure the highest ethical and welfare standards for the equines in our care and to help them develop as individuals, with all the glorious character of a Connie.
We are delighted to be the home of Glencarrig Dolphin and sponsors of Elizabeth Jelfs.
Each season Tivoli Stud breeds a small number of pure Connemara foals, with an emphasis on the qualities required for a highly competitive event pony.
Our focus has been on matching bloodlines that have the potential to meet the highest standards.
A key philosophy is to ensure our foals are handled from an early age to ensure they are both biddable in the yard as well as a joy to work with.
During 2024 we will start the groundwork on Paddington, Sandy and Rey who were 2022 foals.
Tivoli Stud is co-owned by Caroline Hawkins who has been breeding performance horses for over 20 years and is a qualified coach with international experience.
