About Us

Welcome to Bailey’s Walking After Midnight Farm, located in the heart of Virginia’s horse country, at the top of the Blue Ridge mountains.  We are north of Winchester, Va. By 18 miles, 2 hours from DC, and Baltimore, and 12 miles south of Berkeley Springs, WV.

We are specialists in making riding fun and safe. We offer custom guided scenic trail rides, through historic landscapes, with a confident trail boss.  Please take note that this is a custom experience and we can provide horses for up to 3 riders at a time.

Our horse savvy facility is an Equine Dream come true.  Ride in our barn if the weather is bad, use our Round Pen, wash stall, paddocks with run in sheds, trails ON our farm.  We provide a first rate facility where we can show how much we care about Riders AND Horses.  Our Vet and Farrier have scheduled visits to our farm to care for ALL your horse needs.

Our horse back riding lessons are for beginner to advance riders for all discipline’s:

• Gaited
• Western
• Trail and English Pleasure

We emphasize natural horsemanship in all our horse interactions, whether it be round pen, ground work and or riding.

Melissa is an avid trail rider, so a Walking Horse that can deliver that smooth, glide ride, with sensible mind, is a must.

Our lesson horses are mostly gaited horses.  They are known for their calm nature and are always easy to get along with.

Our trail horses are very friendly.  Showing up with a carrot and a scrub brush could make all your cares melt away….
