Natalie has a team of dedicated staff - Rosemary, Highbrooks head girl,
who has been at the yard right from the start and makes sure everything
runs smoothly and efficiently on the yard and has endless patience with
both horses and liveries!. Also part of the team is Stuart who specialises
in caring for any rehabilitation horses, hand picking grass for those on
bos rest, doing all thier physion exercises and just giving them that extra
bit of care and attention. Reuben who is currently working through his
NVQ level 2 in equine managment, and Emily who has recently joined us as
a working pupil. |

From time to time we offer specialist clinics and demonstrations
I have nothing but praise for Highbrow Stables. The owners (Hans and Helen)
have provided 5* luxury for my equine friends! However, the hard work and
grafting is carried out by Natalie, the yard manager and her team, Rosemary,
Stuart and Reuben.
Both my horses have been stabled at Highbrook for over a year. It is
amazing to see the transformation of my now 30 year old Arab within the time he
has been at the yard. He looks amazing and acts like a four year old! I did not
think that he would make it through to his 30th year due to the poor condition
that he was in beforehand. He also is recovering from a foot tumour operation
and has been stabled for the previous 5 months but still had regular grass!
Yes, hand picked!
Natalie provides exemplary care, committment with enthusiasm to all her
liveries with bounce and cheerfullness . She also is a superb trainer who is
very patient, gives encouragement with sound advice to help through those
“sticky moments”.
I would recommend Highbrook Stables time and time again!
