About Us

DeLima Stables

A full-service hunter/jumper facility offering lessons, boarding, and training in the heart of central Kentucky. Contact us today!

Owner and instructor Mary DeLima is a graduate of Meredith Manor Equestrian College and has been sharing her knowledge in the Hunter/Jumper community for over 30 years. Mary has helped hundreds of riders develop confidence with horses, whether they’re riding for the first time or getting back in the saddle after a break.

Located in the heart of  horse country, DeLima Stables welcomes riders ages eight and up. We tailor lessons to each rider’s needs and goals to ensure that everyone has a safe, fun experience. Students in the DeLima Stables lesson program will learn the fundamentals of correct equitation and good horsemanship, and will progress towards their goals, whether that means safely enjoying horses or reaching top levels of competition. In addition to lessons, De Lima Stables also offers camps, clinics, and horse shows.

Boarding and training are available so that your horse can get the best care and education possible. Enjoy access to our beautiful facility and knowing that your horse is in great hands. If you don’t have a horse of your own, we can help you find the best match!

Situated on 41 acres of lush pasture just outside of Lexington, DeLima Stables is only minutes from the historic Shaker Village, where horseback riding is a wonderful way to see Kentucky’s natural beauty. Within an hour’s drive are the Kentucky Horse Park, Lakeside Arena, Masterson Station Park, and many other popular equestrian venues.
