Discover the history of Grevillea Lodge. Founded by Kay & Tony May, we have been passionately breeding quality Shire and Clydesdale horses in NSW since 2005.
For many years we have admired the Shire and Clydesdale horses from a distance at local and major shows around NSW. We first got involved in horses with the purchase of our first horse an ex-trotter called smooch in 1990. After a year or so we decided to try out driving and purchased our first Sulky and Harness for our girl. Smooch might not have been any good on the track but she taught us heaps.
1995 my brother and I purchased a local carriage hire business specialising in wedding and formal carriage hire. We operated until 2008 and had to close as the Equine Influenza forced us to close down for nearly 12 months.
We purchased our first Clydesdale in 2005 a stallion called Lavereen Tiger Balm followed closely by our first 2 Clydesdale mares Tullie and Mary-Anne.
2007 we increased our stock with a shire stallion Beandema Samson. Followed by our first Shire mare Mingara Lilly and another 2 Clydesdale mares Molly and Lady Emerate.
2017 we again increased out herd with the purchase of Southern Cross Ace of Spades.
We have a small number of foals available each year which have all been well handled from birth.
For these people horses are not just animals – they are friends and their passion!
We are a team of people dedicated to horses and having intention to share our knowledge and give you equestrian skills!
We have a wide range of training programs and fascinating lessons. Our trainers will show how they care for the horses, will help you to communicate with the horse and always will be there to help you!
