A lesson

Barb and I moved to Cranbrook from Vancouver, B.C.  to experience the relaxed country lifestyle, and to have our horses at home.

While in Vancouver, Barb worked many years in the hospitality industry, in various management positions. At that time she had the opportunity to train with many top level dressage coaches. Barb is a certified riding instructor who specializes in Dressage, and enjoys coaching riders from beginners to advanced.

I recently retired from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police after 35 years of service, having been in charge of Cranbrook detachment. With more spare time on my hands, I can now concentrate on my horses and hobbies. When I'm not riding the many trails in the area, I'm busy on various projects around the property.

We invite you to our home to have the opportunity to unwind, relax at our Bed & Breakfast and enjoy what this area has to offer.

If you would like to participate in a trail ride, we take pride in knowing our animals are in superb condition and will offer you an unforgettable adventure.

 We encourage you to view pictures of our horses and read the attached biographies.

Your Hosts,
Barb and Fred Barbour
