Our Facilities

We are based on our beautiful 12 acre property in Clackline, just off the Great Eastern Highway. The property and surrounding area is ideal for working with horses as it offers so many different types of riding.

We are close to the Heritage Trail and our property is adjacent to public open space for riding. The horses are exposed to a range of interesting animals (donkeys, camels, alpacas, peacocks etc) that all live in the neighbourhood, plus our neighbour trains ponies to harness so the horses are exposed to horses and carts going past regularly and sharing their riding space. We also have an earthworks business down the road so the horses are exposed to graders, diggers, trucks ect on a daily basis.

We have access to some wonderful flat open paddocks, ideal for first canters and for getting great forward in horses. We also have some quite scary river gullies and banks, a winter creek and a large open dam for water training which Fred says is great for handing out bravery awards and gaining horses confidence. We live on a gravel road but also have some higher traffic areas nearby with nice safe shoulders to safely ride on and expose the horses to traffic.

Fred’s round yard is in full shade and there is a bench beautifully positioned on the hill over the round yard, under a tree for optimum viewing. We also have a 40m x 20m dressage arena for any flatwork.

Agistment wise, we offer steel and electric yards with shelters and trees that are a good size. We also have several post and electric sighter wire paddocks that all the horses have access to during their stay. We also have some heavy duty steel yards with shelters, suitable for stallions and wild/feral horses.

The yards are on the hill above the roundyard and all the horses have a great view of the ‘horse telly’, being Fred in the round yard and horses being worked though out the day. The property offers a wonderful, calm, rural environment that all the horses enjoy.
