What riders say about Castle Hayne stables

Hanover Stables

I've been riding at this family owned farm for more than 4 years. The lesson program for adults and kids is great. Trainers are professional with experience in a variety of riding styles. Riding lessons include horse care, tacking, and understanding horse behavior.

This place is great for my daughter who loves horses. The trainer here is very thorough and detailed in his riding lessons and teaches the correct way to ride a horse!
