Stables

Timber stables built to last

Chart timber stables are designed and constructed to your specifications in our purpose-built workshop using high-quality FSC certified timber and installed by an expert team. Our stables are built to last, be practical, affordable and include a range of optional features to suit any equestrian requirements.

A stable designed for you

Everyone has different requirements for their stabling, which is why all the timber stables and stable blocks that we build are uniquely tailored to you. We work with you, your specifications and budget to create your perfect stable block.

The Chart Stables design team has decades of experience to share; knowing the best position for a wash down bay, tack room or hay store is as important as the right size stable for your particular horses.

Starting with an online or telephone consultation, we are able to design a series of stable options that suit you. A personal stable planner will take onboard any feedback to tweak quotes and designs to make the perfect stable shape, size and specification for you and your budget.

Keeping stable design, build and installation in-house means we are a single point of contact throughout the process.

Ranges & specifications

We have several ranges of stables that offer different specifications, depending upon your budget and requirements. As we build to order, we can customise these to suit your needs.

The Clipper Range is our base range of stables, manufactured to the same exacting standards as our Chart and top Chester ranges. These Stables feature pressure treated timbers for longevity, offer competitive value for money and are priced to include installation at your property.
