About us
Manhattan Stables is a 48-acre estate in Westchester County, New York. Purchased in 2016, the facilities were completely renovated to breathe new life into this 120-year old farm. The land's original character is still evident in the stone barns and shady oaks dotting the property. Beyond serving the greater Westchester County area, Manhattan Stables is an escape for boarders and riders living in New York City, and is easily accessible via Metro North.
