We Understand Horses
The essential joy of being with horses is that it brings us in contact with the rare elements of grace, beauty, spirit and freedom.

Ciara West Equestrian is a full-service boarding and training facility 30 minutes from San Francisco and close to many peninsula cities.
Located in the beautiful hills of Woodside, California, we offer a large, lighted and covered arena, an outdoor dressage court, round pen and property trails.
Boarding options range from stables with turnout, paddocks and pastures and all include high quality feed 3 times per day. Our 145-acre ranch is set in beautiful, natural and peaceful surroundings with ocean views.
We would be happy to show you our facilities and discuss available options for boarding.
Our Facilities and Services
We have spacious and light-filled stalls in our lower barn that are cleaned daily along with refreshed shavings.
Our spacious covered arena is groomed daily and the natural footing is maintained frequently for the safest ride possible.
Individual, double, and triple paddocks are available on both the west and east sides of the ranch.
Our dressage arena is the standard 20 x 60 meters, bordered by rails and appropriately lettered.
Our rebuilt round pen has been expanded to 70 feet in diameter, with paneled walls to protect your horse.
We feed high-quality mountain meadow hay and alfalfa three times per day, and graining services as requested.
