Castle Hill Farm LLC
ABOUT
Castle Hill Farm LLC was founded in the summer of 2019 after the Rowan family purchased a 30 acre horse farm in Moreland, GA. The barn, arena and tack rooms underwent major renovations in the winter of 2019-2020. Head Trainer Skylar Rowan lives on the property full-time.
Castle Hill Farm is an equine facility specializing in the sale of eventing prospects, schooling/lessons, training, and boarding. CHF staff are also available to aid in horse searches, trials, and imports for perspective buyers and leasees. Check out the Sales page for current horses available for sale and lease.
CHF is also facility specializing in eventing, show jumping, and dressage. Schooling is available most weekdays by appointment. During the facility renovation in 2019, the arena was graded and footed. Over a dozen new stadium fences and 20+ cross country obstacles were added to the facility. If you own a horse and are looking for training in eventing, dressage or show jumping, CHF Trainers are also available for training of client horses.

ABOUT THE FACILITY
Castle Hill Farm is a 10 stall single aisle barn with 12x12 stalls. Stalls are equipped with auto-waterers, fans, and sizable hay nets. There are 2 wash bays with hot and cold water and over-head heaters, as well as 2 dry cross ties for tacking and washing convenience. There is a 350 sqft tack room that is heated and cooled with a bathroom. The tack room also is equipped with a washer and dryer for all horse laundry needs. There is an outdoor wash rack provided for haul-ins--also with hot and cold water.
The almost 30 acre property has 10 paddocks, all capable of holding 1-3 horses. In addition, there are 2 rehab paddocks available for horses with injury. Paddocks are equipped with auto-waterers, run-ins, and multiple gates for easy access. They are all provided with HayHuts for constant access to forage. Paddocks are seeded with both winter (Rye) and summer (Bermuda & Timothy) grasses for as close to year-round grazing as possible. Fields are seeded every season as needed as well as kept clean with GrazeOn.
Just outside the barn is a 25x85 (meters) arena footed with M10 and river sand. Many different stadium fences fill the arena. Jumps are hand-made and change weekly to provide constantly new exercises and courses. Around the arena are several dozen cross-country fences for lower-level schooling needs.
