Friesians of Majesty is one of the best Friesian facilities in North America and is located on 650 acres in beautiful Southern Vermont, U.S.A. The Friesians are a breed of jet-black horses that originated in the Netherlands. Friesians of Majesty is the only Friesian farm devoted exclusively to the majestic Friesians in the state of Vermont, which is listed on the Friesian Horse Association of North America “FHANA” breeders list. FHANA is under the umbrella of the Friesch Paarden- Stamboek , FPS, which is the world wide authority on the Friesian horse. 

Visitors are always welcome with an appointment to our award winning Friesian equestrian facility, home to over 30 outstanding Friesians. Friesians of Majesty maintains its quality horses through very selective breeding, matching the very best stallion for each mare in order to have the very best possible offspring. We complete the job with four years of total training right on site. We breed for conformation, movement, and temperament. Our goal is to have only Premie rated or better in our barn with all horses trained in riding, driving, or both.

We have recently built a new 100’ x 240’ indoor riding arena, which now allows for year round training for the Keuring, riding and driving. This indoor riding arena is available to rent for clinics, lessons, or shows.

Are you looking for something to make your wedding truly unique and spectacular? This is the quintessential alternative to the everyday traditional limousine. Ride in style as our horse-drawn carriage whisks you away in elegance. A Friesian carriage ride will make an extraordinary addition to your beautiful wedding day. Your guests can wave you off in unforgettable fashion.

Take a journey back in time. Our Friesian-drawn sleigh rides are a wonderful way to enjoy the beautiful Vermont winters. We will accommodate your schedule, whether you would like to enjoy the bright sun bouncing off the sparkling snow or the brilliant moon reflecting on the snowy fields. Our picturesque farm surrounded by majestic mountains is the perfect backdrop for that special sleigh ride. 

All of our Friesians are trail ridden on the farm and are trained in driving, dressage, or both. These horses not only have exceptional bloodlines, but also portray the great character and temperament that Friesians are famous for. The horses are particularly impressive due to their ratings, which are given every year by the FPS judges from Holland. All of the brood mares are full papered and carry the rating of stars with some mares having five generations of a star preferent bloodline.

Owner Robert Labrie’s goal is to breed nothing but top quality Friesians, all with full papers and bearing the title of star. These horses will exemplify the characteristics special to Friesians of Majesty. These characteristics include conformation, temperament, performance, and bloodlines. 

Call the farm today at 802-365-7526 to get further info, click here to request that someone gets back to you or send an email to Robert Labrie ( ). If we don’t answer the phone, we’re probably out in the barn, the fields, the riding arena with the horses, or at a horse show. Please leave a message and we'll get back to you as soon as we can. We are appreciative to everyone that contacts us and return all messages as quickly as possible.
