Haven Hill Farm boasts a peaceful atmosphere for both horse and rider. We offer centered and balanced riding from beginning to advanced students of all ages. Our lesson program utilizes classical riding principles both on the ground and under saddle to strengthen both rider and horse, improve communication, and build a strong partnership between you and your horse. This form of riding is the foundation of all forms of riding. It will improve your riding regardless of your level or discipline. Lessons are offered year round during the day and evening. We also have talented horses available for lease to qualified students. Discounts are available on lessons when purchased as a monthly package. We have much to offer for the competitive or recreational rider.

We have a beautifully sited outdoor full size dressage arena with all weather synthetic footing. We also have a lovely WE or Working Equitation course. The WE obstacle course is designed for anyone that would like to teach their horse how to navigate trails, a dressage test, or a jump course and uses classical principles to do so. It is an extremely effective way to build confidence for riders and horses. WE is a very old sport in Europe and quickly gaining popularity in the states. Besides being a challenge to horses and riders, it's just plain fun! We also have a 50' round pen and numerous trails both on and off the property so there is no need to trailer your horse every time a trail ride is desired.

Our facility is conveniently located just off Troy Pike and the Bluegrass Parkway, 10 minutes from downtown Versailles, and just 25 minutes from the Kentucky Horse Park. We also offer boarding for your horse. We are proud of our program! Haul-Ins welcome with proof of negative Coggins!
