A sanctuary of quiet distinction for horses who have given everything. At Llangollen Farm, retirement is not an end — it is an honour.
Llangollen has endured as one of the great American country farms since its establishment in 1795 — surveyed by George Washington, listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and cherished by only eight owners across two centuries.
Today those 1,100 acres at the foot of the Blue Ridge Mountains form the setting for the care and retirement of horses who have defined careers in show jumping, steeplechase, and the finest stables in the world.
From daily turnout to therapeutic bodywork, every service is designed around what your horse has earned.
Structured daily turnout on premium Virginia pasture with attentive monitoring every day.
Bespoke feeding programmes tailored to each horse's age, health history, and body condition.
Regular oversight, farrier visits every 5–8 weeks, and immediate access to emergency care.
Photographs and updates available on request at any time.
Built in the 1930s by millionaire John Hay "Jock" Whitney, the 200-foot semi-circular colonnade is one of the most recognised equestrian structures in America — 24 stalls, an arched promenade, and a courtyard unlike anything else in Virginia.
The drive unfolds beneath a cathedral of mature maples — the same trees that have welcomed guests for over a century. Private visits are warmly welcomed by appointment.
