Alanwood Farm

Established in 2015, Alanwood Farm is a picturesque, high-end horse farm in Broad Run, VA, just minutes from Warrenton and less than an hour from DC. This haven for the non-competitive leisure rider has 240 acres of unspoiled land, and several streams and brooks where your horse can relax whilst on a ride through some of the 15 miles of regularly-maintained trails. We are a quiet, low key horse barn under private management with highly attentive, experienced, and committed staff.

Alanwood Farm is designed to be a paradise for both human and horse. While we pamper the herd with daily, attentive care, we also try to keep them as close as possible to their natural living conditions with an abundance of pasture grazing and outdoor access, weather permitting. Twelve full acres of well-designed paddocks, high-quality grass, home-grown hay, lots of shaded areas, and exceptional fly control allow this. Each paddock is unique, providing a variety of experiences for the horses. Additionally, we feature hand-build natural obstacle courses and jumps made from locally sourced timber.

Nestled into the natural wooded surroundings, you’ll find an outdoor riding arena, a 60-foot round pen, and a warm-up ring with a lunging pad. The tree canopy provides natural air conditioning in warmer weather and traps heat in cooler months, creating a gorgeous, temperate setting for working with your horse.

Alanwood boarders will not only enjoy all of the basic equine facilities, but also the unique features that really make the place special. There’s a peaceful lily pond with ducks, multiple decks, gardens, and benches around the property, climate-controlled lounges, free WiFi, coffee, and snacks (including boiled eggs laid by the resident free-ranging chickens). For those who wish to stay overnight, there are campsites on the property as well as rooms in a guest house available (nightly rental fees apply).
