Connemara Pony
A native pony breed from Ireland, the Connemare pony evolved in the rough terrain if Galway, creating a strong, sturdy, native breed that is resilient and adaptable for a variety of different equestrian spheres. Below you can watch the video of the majestic Connemara pony.
Village Star produced many outstanding ponies which include Village Laura, Village Colleen, Castle Squire and Castle Misty to name but a few.
She left one special daughter in `Castle Dame`, our first winner in Clifden, who was also to become an exceptional brood mare. Crossed with Abbey Leix Owen, she produced two fillies and two colts all of which had great success in the show ring. Castle Countess and Castle Urchin were both Supreme Champions of Clifden; while Castle Comet and Castle Baron reached the pinnacle of success in England and Australia. Castle Urchin now continues this strong mare line, following on from her mother Castle Dame, who died prematurely in 1999.
After the death of Paddy King in the spring of 2004, Village Girl and her daughter, Village Linnet joined the Castle Stud.
Our aim has always been to produce quality ponies which are true to type; having strong bone, good temperament, movement and correct conformation. We take pride in the successes of the past and strive to continue them well into the future.

In the 18th century Arabian stallions were bred to Connemara mares to add additional strength and stamina to the breed...they were also crossed with Hackney Ponies and Thoroughbreds to establish todays breed size and type...selected cross breeding resulted in an intelligent pony with a very good temperament...

Crosskeys Rebel - CPBS & ISH 148 cms
This lovely dun Connemara pony and successful jumper stood his first season with us in 2001, prior to this he was standing in the far North of Ireland. Standing in Carlow
A beautiful free moving pony of substance with a fabulous temperment.
Details; Crosskeys Rebel has a most beautiful temperament. He hunts, has more than 100 showjumping points over the last two seasons and continues to jump. He won the B/C Finals at Kells Equestrian Center on the 10th June 2001 and 2nd in the A/B/C, Kilronan, Co. Dublin the weekend before. All his progeny so far (that we know of) have been dun in colour, this is probably helped by having Carna Dun in both sides of his pedigree (three times) along with other famous producers of showjumpers; Doon Paddy, McDara, Carna Bobby etc..
Crosskeys Rebel is registered and approved by the Connemara Pony Breeders Society and the Irish Horse Bord.
