What are the benefits of turnout areas for horses?
Turnout pens for horses provide a safe and controlled environment for exercise and socialisation. These protected spaces allow horses to engage in natural behaviours, such as rolling, playing, and interacting with other horses, which is essential for their physical and mental well-being.
Reduce stress and boredom
Larger space to roll, play and socialise all contributes to enhance the horses' quality of life
Socialisation with other horses
Research has shown that socialisation among horses significantly reduces stress levels.
Rehabilitation
A safe exercise area for a horse going through rehabilitation, you can still provide individual care

Applications of turnout areas:
Private horse owners
Transform your home into a welfare focussed and personalized sanctuary that caters specifically to the needs and comfort of your horses.
Veterinary and Rehab centres
Horses kept for treatment and rehabilitation require ongoing social needs to be met. We take care to consider biosecurity and other unique priorities you may have.
Sport and competition horses
Knowing that all your horses from amateur to grand prix have increased opportunity to socialise and yet still provide safety, security and individual management.
Studs and Breeders
We create turnout areas designed for the unique needs of studs and breeders. Including areas for stallions, mares and foals and youngstock. Focussed on safety, security and ease of use.
