  • Dressage Olympian Carl Hester has created a beautiful British yard complete with lush turnout, a not so indoor, indoor arena, and lots and lots of birds.
    Have an exclusive look into the stable that some of the most distinguished Dressage champions, both horse and human, call home.

      Ann Fitzgerald my gosh. Even hobby-riders ride with bits, and dressage is something that horses are able to do, it also keeps them trained. 🙄 This video shows a beautiful way of owning horses!

      Turning out is generally normal where I'm from in Australia... you see horses in paddocks on every horsey property. Is this not normal elsewhere?

      Kate Shearman I am not sure with high levels of riding such as his barn. But the smaller show barns (kids, teens, etc.), the horses are only allowed out for a few hours, and then they are lunges to burn off excess energy. And a lot of them have miserable personalities. Mind you, that’s not every barn, but that was my experience working at them.

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE Your philosophy on how you treat horses. I’ve always said if you don’t at least have a small pasture you shouldn’t own a horse. Grazing in a green grassy field is a horse’s favorite thing to do. And to deprive them of that is terrible. I love also how you have a place for work and a place for rest and pleasure. It has to be psychologically emotionally great for the horses These fantastic animals as you said are our partners and friends not our slaves and to keep them constantly locked up in little stalls is like a jail cell. .

    It's lovely to see that you've put so much thought into the horses' psychological wellbeing into the structures; lots of close contact opportunities and separate work and rest areas. Well done :)

    Beautiful set up, thanks for sharing! I love having my chickens around the barn yard as well, they really add a lot of character.
