What riders say about Danby stables

Mountain View Ranch

The best horse riding experience for first timers. They've got a lovely lab that kept us company throughout our entire ride. They also have a cat named stormy and that's the cuddliest cat I've ever seen! John is a wonderful host and the entire experience was amazing.

Chipman Stables

This family run farm is the best! Going on 4 generations the staff here are all extremely knowledgeable about and dedicated to the horses. While my girlfriend and I were waiting for some horses to get back, we learned so much from the person who started it over 60 years ago.
