Location
Fawley House Stud is superbly placed on the border of Berkshire and Oxfordshire, an area which generally has quick access to London and Heathrow via the M4. Beautifully sited, there are lovely views over the Downs in an area well away from main roads and road noise. The riding from the stud farm is unrivalled along bridleways which link up to the Ridgeway. The area is renowned in the equine world - the racing centre of Lambourn is nearby, both Wantage and Newbury are in easy reach, and trains to London are from Newbury and Didcot, from which fast trains take under 45 minutes.
History
Fawley House Stud has been a stud farm for many years. It has been in the hands of the current owners since 2003 and has been run as a breaking and rehabilitation stud for the owners' own horses and some private clients. Before then, it was set up by the Muir family in the 1950s, and then owned by John Deer, who stood Averti, and other stallions at the farm. The current owners converted the barn to the house, built the indoor school and installed the gallop - this is a truly versatile operation.
