Beginning with a passion for horses and a desire to deliver excellent training and superior quality of care, Linda and Alvin Dietz teamed up with King Construction to create an unparalleled equestrian facility. Conveniently located in picturesque Bedminster, New Jersey, Red Tail Farm offers just about everything a horse owner could want.
Hidden down a long driveway off Rattlesnake Bridge Road in pastoral Bedminster, New Jersey, and set on 390 acres of preserved farmland, sits our beautiful facility. Walking through the solid pine doors and into the expansive barn aisles, you can see the high windows of the southern wall of our attached indoor arena. As you walk into the ring, you will notice the mirrored walls, the large windows flooding the space with light, glowing off the lacquered pine. Walking out through the rear doors, you are greeted by a beautiful view of horses grazing in our large main paddocks, populated with trees, as well as our outdoor regulation size dressage arena. Coming back along the driveway, you catch a glimpse of horses trotting on the exercise track encircling our first jump field adjacent to our second outdoor arena, hidden in a clearing and down a path next to our round pen.
Further towards the road and hidden in another clearing is our second jump field, a cross country area that includes multiple obstacles covering seven acres of fields and featuring a bank complex and ditch designed by international 3-day event rider Doug Payne. Having arrived back at the driveway entrance, you look over the hay fields and then behind you to the trees. Spotting one of the entrances to one of our riding trails, hoof prints fading into the leaves, you can't see what is around the next bend, but you can't wait to get tacked up and find out!
Our state-of-the-art facility, completed in 2009, spares no expense to provide a comfortable, functional, and aesthetically pleasing experience for both horse and rider.
