 | | STE. ANNE'S FARM EQUINE ACTIVITIES
A relatively new addition to the Ste. Anne's Spa experience is Ste. Anne's Farm.
It is home to 10 domestic horses, 3 Percheron carriage horses and a
number of beef steers. As a guest of Ste. Anne's Spa, we encourage you to enjoy the farm facility in whichever way best suits you. Read below for options. Grooming Time | by appointment only | 45 - 60 minutes | year round | $45
Are you feeling like a little one-on-one with an equine? Book some
grooming time with Karey White and one of the horses at Ste. Anne's Farms. Karey White*
will help you to catch your horse in the field, secure him in cross-ties,
groom the horse - including brushing the coat and mane, massaging any of the sore muscles, picking their feet, braiding their tail (if time permits).
