Envision your day at Blanche Manor and the rolling Blue Ridge Mountains where you can saddle up to 
canter through a shady forest trail laced with mountain laurel in bloom or relax as your horse drinks from a cool mountain stream as it cascades into a hundred little waterfalls in the Copperhill, TN mountains.
That was the vision of owner, Peggy Blanche's, to break away from the stressful life of non-stop showing and traveling and find just such an oasis. Peggy has over two decades of competing and training numerous horses and riders to world championship. From the moment you arrive at Blanche Manor you will realize they've created just such a haven, a place that's a little different from any stable you have ever visited.
The entire staff at Blanche Manor are one of the main reasons customers return year after year. Their horses, which really become more like their children, are selected with the same trained eye and scrutiny that Peggy used to select a future champion. With these high standards, you can rest assured that they all have exceptionally kind dispositions, are well trained and responsive to commands, and of course, are beautiful and in top physical condition. With outstanding animals such as these, the small child or tentative adult on their first ride can go for a leisurely stroll, or the seasoned veteran can saddle up to really put their mount through its paces. 
Whatever your experience or expectations are, Blanche Manorhas the horse that will be perfect for your adventure into the wilderness. Your unforgettable experience here will have you coming back for years to come. And just in case you want an overnight adventure, another feature they've added to accommodate customers is that you can stay on site at Blanche Manor in one of their beautiful yurts. Experience the beauty of the Blue Ridge mountains in eco-friendly comfort without spending a fortune!
