Nestled on the Atlantic Ocean, the ranch is located near the small village of St. Andrews, just outside of Antigonish, Nova Scotia. Situated along the South River, the picturesque rolling green hills and miles of wooded trails make it a horse lover's dream. The natural grass and forested gullies are an ideal place for foals to spend their first years of life. Our pastures are built on tiled fields, which drain off excess water and keeps mud to a minimum, allowing us to keep horses outside all year round. Read Our Philosophy to learn more.

The property is owned by the Carrondale Cattle Company, a beef, grain and hay producer.

The hay produced by the farm is superior quality timothy and timothy-alfalfa mix that is analyzed each year to assure the horses and livestock receive optimal nutrition.
