Inside My Stable: Carl Hester 

I love his turnout philosophy! So refreshing to see one of the best riders and competitors in the world feel this way!

I love how they let horses be horses

Love how they’re able to be horses and be out in a herd

What a gift he is to the Equestrian World and World in general, thank you Carl, for integrity, humility, brilliance, wit and charm, and hard work !!

I absolutely love your design of your yard but most of all the respect you are showing your horses and animals. Your principal of yes I want my horses to work but I will make their wellbeing of the utmost importance is commendable. You are right to be proud.

All of Carl’s animals looks like they are living their best life, they look happy and calm

My favorite set up I have ever seen!!

Of all the stable tour videos, this is my favourite. And when I finally went there for a yard open morning, as we came down the driveway and I was starting to recognize all the things from the videos, I was so touched. The atmosphere was just so friendly and relaxed. and there were so many cuddly rescue dogs running around. great role model!

This was by far my most favourite "Inside My Stable" video. Carl is such a legend!

The very not so subtle shit talk on Charlotte is the best. Their relationship is so unique.

His last name (Hester) means horses in norwegian

Just quality horsemanship at its finest! Well done!

So lovely to see a top rider who knows the importance of turning out his horses! Absolutely hate it when I see horses kept in due to ‘risk of injury’ 🙄.

What a BEAUTIFUL/WONDERFUL horse property!!!(I love how close Carl and Charlotte also are-- they are fun people who seem to really have a good time at what they are doing -- and supporting each other.. (2 incredibly talented horse people!!)♡

Those mares were beautiful. Just the facial structure and eyes. You can tell they're super well bred and intelligent.

So happy to see you allow the horses to be out doors and be horses. So important for their mental and emotion well being. The stable is beautiful!

Genuinely likable fella with a heartwarming attitude -wonderful stables and grounds.

It always breaks my heart when I hear that some equestrians barely have their horses outside in the field, so this was music to my ears. Loooooooove it!!!

Looks like a piece of heaven to me! Thank you for sharing it with us!

i love ‘i love it when the animals are happy here the people are happy here” 😻😻😭

Absolutely lovely. It's just wonderful to see horses, regardless of their value or career get to be horses! I'm in the states, but so wish I was closer so that I could visit; what a dream!

Carl Hester is the best at allowing horses to behave like horses. I just love him for that. ❤ Carl and Charlotte Dujardin don't need Rollkur to be great. 😊

This is exactly how horses should be taken care of, respectfully! He seems so kind and dedicated to them, gives them rest time, space to be themselves. Amazing 💕

I love Carl's excitement and his always fun relationship with Charlotte.

He's very well spoken!

Absolutely gorgeous, and so refreshing to see they care so much for the horses well being and happiness. So many just use an animal not thinking they are a living breathing creature on this earth with us. ❤

never thought of the wash stalls being completely separate from the stables, something to add to my dream barn checklist!

Carl you are a wonderful person, no wonder the animals love you

Beautiful! I want to be a horse and live there!

I love that the horses are with each other i big pastures. Every showhorse i’ve they have suuper small gravel pastures, so small that they can’t canter. and they are alone. for everything they do for us, doesn’t we owe them a healthy and REAL horselife. they should run in big pastures and a pack of friends to share it with😍

Thank you Mr. Hester, for showing us your property, and some of your gorgeous horses!!! I love how you care for all of your animals, down to the little black sitting hen!

My dad made these stables Neil Hancox and they are great x

That is so awesome that you treat horses like horses 😊

These are my favorite videos on your channel.

Those must be some happy horses! Love seeing how he lets them have plenty of turnout. The whole place is laid out so nicely! 👍🏻

Your such an inspiration to so many people in the world Carl, and also Charlotte, we are so lucky to have you both in our lives, I look forward to the olympics, your both going to smash it, win win win all the way, love to you both. Xx

Wow, can I live there! ❤️

What a man, what an animal lover, what an equestrian

Love your farm and appreciate you sharing. I totally agree about turnout. It's natural for them to be out and be happy horse's.

Carl is such an articulate and straightforward speaker - you always learn so much from him. A treat to see his yard - thank you! ♥️

Carl and Charlotte are just the best. What a beautiful yard. Such fabulous care for the horses. That’s why you guys are winners! Wish I could be there. And love those chickens! Also the cheekiness towards Charlotte. What a diamond duo. 💕

Yes! I love it! You can let your horse be a horse and still win it all! Thank you Carl!

OMG Carl, your home and stables are just incredible. The land and grass are just stunning. Your place has a peace and serenity vibe to it. I love it.

What An amazing idea to have a completely separate work and rest place for the horses, so lovely & id love to try to incorporate that into my yard in future

Thank you, Carl, for sharing your magnificent farm with us -- it was a treat to see the property. Charlotte will be fortunate, indeed, to inherit it from you, one day. Happy, healthy, horses, chickens, peacocks, dogs and humans. Delightful. I wish my off-track-thoroughbred lived there.

I really love having the stables as like Carl said a safe place, and everything work related happens in/by the school. Also great to see lots of turnout, something which is lacking in a lot of horses lives unfortunately!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Your philosophy on how you treat horses. I’ve always said if you don’t at least have a small pasture you shouldn’t own a horse. Grazing in a green grassy field is a horse’s favorite thing to do. And to deprive them of that is terrible. I love also how you have a place for work and a place for rest and pleasure. It has to be psychologically emotionally great for the horses These fantastic animals as you said are our partners and friends not our slaves and to keep them constantly locked up in little stalls is like a jail cell. . Thank you for taking such good care of your animals and treating horses the way they were meant to be treated

I so love your philosophy in the way you treat your horses! Like Horses! Time to work and time to play out in paddocks like they are meant to😊

I don’t know if the animals are happy there but I DEFINITELY would be happy there ! How absolutely beautiful!!!! ❤️🐴❤️

I love the way horses are kept and especially the indoor arena, lots and lots of windows ad most importantly the love for horses

Brilliant that you turn them out no matter there value 👌👍👏👏👏👏

I love how you turn out your horses as much as you can! I can tell you really care for them and it’s lovely too see

I love seeing that they let horses just be horses and enjoy each other’s company out in the field. Also I thought the idea of having their stalls be the safe, eating and sleeping area and then having everything else done in the wash/grooming boxes was really cool. All of those horses are so lucky !! 😍

Beautiful set up, thanks for sharing! I love having my chickens around the barn yard as well, they really add a lot of character.

Thank you Carl ❤️your horse home is beautiful.

It's lovely to see that you've put so much thought into the horses' psychological wellbeing into the structures; lots of close contact opportunities and separate work and rest areas. Well done :)

And the Boxer dogs have their ears and tails, wonderful to see !!

I love him, and his overall approach to horse keeping- and that is one of the most beautiful properties I have ever seen! Lucky Charlotte, haha...

There is a serenity about this place.🙂💟

Oh my goodness this is my DREAM

Lightworld From Vancouver Island, Canada - I LOVE your Attitude & care to the horses, and chickens, dogs, etc, etc. I enjoy watching horse shows and dogs. I am a senior and live in a condo where we cannot keep dogs or cats. They tried but with SO MANY people working dogs were barking, peeing in the units destroying the carpets. On cats people were putting USED KITTY LITTER DOWN THE TOILETS consequential Having PLUGGED toilets. So They HAD TO BAN DOGS & CATS.

It's like an ivy league horse college, I'd want to apply if I was a horse lol

total schön! undzwar alles - total schön! das ist irre viel Arbeit! - tolle Anlagen, Reitplätze und tolle Boxen (mit abgerundeten Ausgucken - das habe ich bislang noch nicht gesehen) - alles so schön eingefriedet von der Natur - und es laufen Pfauen frei herum! ein Traum!

I've been binging stable tour videos recently, and I'm so glad to see how horse friendly his stable is. It's really surprising how many fancy facilities have no thought put into how the horse feels.

The whole world could learn from how Carl treats his horses. Bravo Carl and the team 👏 xxxx

Carl is a gift to humanity! Bless you ❤

A beautiful facility and it's good to see happy, healthy horses. Aristocrats, all!

Brilliant philosophy and great treatment of the horses who do so much for us!

So good to see horse treated so good.

Beautiful !! 🙏❤

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

Just stunning and real. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you so much for sharing with us all. How refreshing to see.

I love this!!

Fresh air always seemed to make horses happier. All those distractions are good so they get used to noises. Love your Boxers

What a cool human Carl is! Love him!

Lovely, happy horses.

Great video. Thank you Carl for showing us around your beautiful yard and horses
