ABOUT US

SITUATED ON 350 ACRES OF THE FINEST GLOUCESTERSHIRE VALE, TWEENHILLS HAS LONG BEEN REGARDED AS ONE OF THE FINEST
STOCK FARMS.


Tweenhills Farm & Stud was established in 1995, following the conversion of the Redvers family farm.

Since then, Tweenhills has been associated with breeding, raising and grazing numerous top class horses.  These include Cheltenham favourite, Lady Rebecca, who won three consecutive Gr.1 Cleeve Hurdles, as well as notable Stakes winners on the flat such as Royal Ascot two-year-old Radiohead and Champion filly Flashy Wings.

Those raised at the stud include pin-hooks Rising Cross, Gr.1 Epsom Oaks second and Gr.2 Park Hill winner; Dark Islander, Gr.2 Oak Tree Derby winner in USA; and multiple Stakes winner Tax Free.  Success in the sales ring has also been achieved.

The stud is renowned for offering highly commercial stallions. They tick all the boxes that go to make a successful sire and above all else offer the opportunity to breed to genuine class.

The farm has undergone massive improvements since it was established.  It boasts stabling for over 100 mares and foals, and a modern foaling unit, following the addition of the next door organic dairy Corsend Farm in 2001.

More recently, a state of the art American style covering yard, staff hostel and new Fibresand stallion exercise arena have been built.

The paddocks at Tweenhills are sheltered with ancient hedgerows and oak trees, and an extensive fencing operation has been undertaken to replace much of the stud railing.

This is proper stock-rearing ground where bloodstock and cattle thrive and reach their true potential, whilst in the care of experienced and dedicated staff.
