Long-Lasting Timber Horse Stables and Field Shelters

Our timber horse stables and field shelters are engineered for strength, durability and comfort. Whether for private yards, livery setups or equestrian centres, each building is crafted to perform year-round in demanding environments.

Static or Mobile - Find the Perfect Stable Design

We offer both static stables for permanent installations and mobile stables for flexibility. Mobile designs include timber or metal skids and optional wheel systems, allowing you to move the structure when needed for grazing rotation or temporary use. Both types maintain full structural integrity thanks to reinforced framing and overlapping cladding.

Equine Safety and Comfort

Our priority is horse welfare. Every stable includes solid partitions, smooth interior finishes and proper ventilation to reduce condensation. Doors and latches are fitted for safety and ease of use, and optional kickboards help prevent wear or injury.

Natural Timber Benefits

Timber offers excellent natural insulation, keeping your horses warmer in winter and cooler in summer. It also dampens noise, reducing stress during storms or heavy rain. In addition, timber stables blend seamlessly with rural and equestrian landscapes.

Customisable Layouts and Options

Choose from single, double or multiple-stall designs with optional tack rooms, hay stores, feed areas, slip rails, roof canopies and bespoke fittings. Because every build is made to order, your stable or field shelter will perfectly fit your available space and needs.

Low-Maintenance and Built to Last

Using quality spruce cladding and pressure-treated framing, our stables resist weathering and retain their shape over time. Heavy-duty fixings, galvanised hardware and robust skids ensure long-term durability and easy upkeep.

Static vs Mobile Stables - Which is Right for You?

Choosing between static and mobile stables depends on how you use your land and manage your horses. A static stable is ideal for permanent setups, offering maximum stability and the ability to connect utilities like water or electricity. Mobile stables, however, are perfect for rotational grazing or temporary turnout areas. They often do not require planning permission and can be moved seasonally to rest paddocks or adapt to changing conditions.

When planning your stable, consider ground type, drainage and prevailing winds. Timber stables should be sited on well-drained, level ground, ideally with a slight gradient to prevent standing water. For mobile options, ensure the skid base can handle towing loads without warping. All our mobile units are reinforced for this purpose.

Ventilation is another key factor. Horses produce moisture through breathing and sweating, so adequate airflow prevents condensation and keeps air fresh. Roof vents, grille doors and ridge openings are recommended. Insulation can also improve comfort during winter months.

For feed and tack storage, combining your stable with a dedicated room or adjacent hay bay makes management easier. Lighting and electrical options are available for both static and mobile configurations.

Ultimately, your choice should balance convenience, cost and horse welfare. If you're unsure, our experienced team can help you design a layout that supports your daily routine while maximising safety and comfort for your horses.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need planning permission for mobile stables?
Usually not, as mobile stables are considered temporary. However, regulations vary depending on duration and location, so it's best to check with your local authority.

What size stable does my horse need?
A standard box size for most horses is 12ft x 12ft, with larger breeds requiring 12ft x 14ft or more for comfort.

Can you add a tack room or hay store?
Yes, tack rooms, hay bays and feed stores can be incorporated into any stable design.

What materials are used?
We primarily use first-grade spruce for its durability and value, combined with galvanised fittings and heavy-duty frames.

Are timber stables easy to maintain?
Yes - periodic treatment, good ventilation and clear drainage ensure a long service life with minimal upkeep.
