A message from the Owner: It is clear to all that my property has several attributes and uses, between the river and the old growth forest it is indeed a sanctuary of tranquility and peace. But it is even more than that for the informed horse person who highly values an Equicentral System of horse keeping which includes the freedom to traverse over specific and diverse surfaces and terrains, variances in types of grazing, and the ability for the horses to make choices. The educated equestrian knows that both the pleasure horse and the competitive sport horse benefit from this system which is gaining traction worldwide. The benefits to the horse’s physical and mental wellbeing are many and varied, from improved foot health to natural fitness. Having spent my life with horses of various, breeds and disciplines, I know the importance of building and maintaining a healthy level of fitness in the horse for their physical, mental, and emotional well being. The fields vary from lush to sparse grass, allowing for safe early spring grazing, a variety in summer grazing and winter grazing on firm dry ground. During the heat of the summer-months I watch my horses choose to move to the shade, knowing exactly where to find it at different times of the day. They wander freely back to the barn contented, happy horses. The barn speaks for itself, very safe and comfortable, working well for horses and those caring for them. With horse mattresses, receptaclesfor fans for the summer months and warm water in each stall for the winter months. The horses have the ability to choose to be inside the barn or under their shelters or out in safe paddocks. I have found that given this amount of freedom particularly roaming the property, horses are not only more sure-footed but naturally warmed up and with supple muscles ready to go to work. For the avid trail rider there are literally miles of riding trails easily accessed from this property, links provided: https://www.cvrd.ca/1379/Kinsol-Trestle https://www.cvrd.ca/121/Cowichan-Valley-Trail Wishing you many happy hours spent with your horse
