Les Bordes Equestrian Centre - Now Open

August 19, 2025

A New Chapter in Lifestyle, Sport, and Community

We are proud to announce the launch of the Les Bordes Equestrian Centre, now open to riders of all levels. Located within our 1,400-acre private estate in the Loire Valley, this purpose-built facility brings together expert instruction, natural beauty, and a deep respect for horses and the people who ride them.

Led by experienced trainer and horse development specialist Marie Beauclair, the centre offers a wide range of programs, including:

  • Private and group riding lessons

  • Trail rides through forested estate paths

  • Coaching for competition-level riders

  • Introductory sessions for young riders

  • Full-service boarding for horse owners

The first phase includes 13 stables, a paddock, and access to private trails. The stables are now open, with further enhancements planned as part of Les Bordes’ long-term equestrian vision.

“Whether you’re an experienced rider or simply curious to explore life on horseback, our centre is a peaceful, high-quality space for every passion,” says Marie Beauclair.


A Shared Vision with Scott Brash MBE

The launch follows our partnership with Olympic Gold Medallist and Rolex Grand Slam winner Scott Brash MBE, who is helping guide the long-term development of the centre.

In a recent Luxury Briefing feature, Scott shared his inspiration for the project:

“Les Bordes represents a rare opportunity to blend elite equestrian sport with wellness, nature, and lifestyle - all within a private, supportive community.”

His approach emphasises not only performance, but mentorship, sustainability, and the development of future generations of riders. Together with Marie and the estate team, Scott is shaping a facility that reflects the very best of modern equestrianism.

An Equestrian Life at Les Bordes - Now Open for Bookings

At Les Bordes, equestrian life exists in harmony with golf, wellness, and nature. The estate’s vast forests and lakes provide the perfect backdrop for peaceful rides, while the professional facilities and services support every stage of a rider’s journey. 

This launch marks the beginning of an ambitious vision to position Les Bordes as one of Europe’s most exciting destinations for equestrian living combining understated luxury with a deep connection to nature and sport.

The Les Bordes Equestrian Centre is now accepting bookings for riding sessions, trail rides, and boarding.
