Basford Grange Stables<\/h3>\n
\n\t

Our yard is located in the Staffordshire Moorlands near the town of Leek.<\/p>\n

Centrally located, we are ideally situated for getting to racecourses such as Uttoxeter, Haydock, Chester, and Wolverhampton, but since we are not far from the motorway networks, it also makes it easier for trips to tracks further afield, so it's not unknown for us to have runners at the likes of Perth, Hexham or Cartmel!<\/p>\n

The traditional stables comprise 12 loose boxes, arranged in an L-shaped block, and we also have two American-style Barns each with 20 stalls, so we have capacity for over 50 horses being in at any given time.<\/p>\n

We have two all weather gallops, the main one stretching a mile with a fairly steep climb to about half way, then a more level stretch, and a stiff and turning uphill finish, so the horses get a great work out. We also have grass gallops and plenty of quiet country lanes to take the horses out for walks. This can keep them fresh and give them a bit of variety in their routine. There are extensive schooling facilities, and over 98 acres of grassland and turnout facilities for the horses to unwind during the season.<\/p>\n

We operate a small friendly yard, where giving individual attention to each horse is a must, and we warmly welcome owners to see their horses at work on the gallops.<\/p>\n
