Hunter Valley Warmblood Stud (HVWS) is located 2 hours north of Sydney in the Hunter Valley district of New South Wales, Australia.  Our stud is situated on 400 acres of highly productive alluvial country on the banks of the Williams River and is located near the township of Dungog.

HVWS's focus is on breeding quality equestrian horses primarily for Dressage, although some of our bloodlines have experienced success in Jumping. Our bloodlines are from leading German Warmbloods who have demonstrated competitive success and consistently produced successful progeny.  Breeding with our State Premium (imp) mares and Germany's top licenced stallions, our vision is to consistently breed top quality Warmbloods that have the trainability, movement and temperament to reach the highest level.
 
HVWS has an established breeding program in Germany where we have a number of mares, fillies and colts being trained and cared for by leading German studs. Last year we imported to Australia three of our State Premium mares - Donna Rubina , Weltlicht and Damoura. This year we imported another two mares - Londongirl and Her Highness, bringing our imported mare based to 5.

These mares will only be bred with the best stallions from Europe, giving Australian buyers the opportunity to buy fully imported offspring with super bloodlines at more affordable prices rather than going through the whole costly, lengthy process alone!

 

Our property is also an established tourist resort known as the Carriageway, which currently has accommodation for 40 guests. The property has been expanded to include the opening of Rattler's restaurant and now has the inclusion of conference and function facilities through the renovation and opening of our historical 1878 homestead.

HVWS has an established wine label and we will plant new vines to service opportunities our Stud has establshed through participation in various International Equestrian events. Our wine label was recently selected for the Hickstead events in the UK and we are very hopeful of participation in other European events during 2008. Our wine label has also been selected for the Australian Dressage Championships in 2005, 2006 and 2007and we will continue to support major equestrian events through our wine and importantly as a breeder of Warmblood horses.
