Visitors will tour our Matamata property, meet Mares, Foals, Spellers and Yearlings, see the facilities and even pat a retired racehorse. See the care and dedication our team gives to the horses in our care.
Westbury Stud is New Zealand's home of breeding and rearing elite thoroughbreds. Spread over two picturesque properties in Karaka and the Waikato. The success of Westbury Stud is the result of the passion and dedication displayed by all of our team.
Westbury Waikato is set on a magnificent property on the “Golden Mile” of Matamata’s leading stud farms and stables, providing the perfect partner for the Karaka base. Spread over 525 acres of prime Waikato farmland the lush conditions provide the ideal location to rear thoroughbreds and is home to Harvey's extensive broodmare band which now totals in excess of 300 mares and provides an all-encompassing foaling unit to complete the breeding operation.
At Hopkins Road, Matamata turn into the Westbury Stud Main Entrance - clearly marked on the roadside - and pull up to the self-opening gates (that open inward) and take the right side of the circular driveway and park at the office which is the building on the right side of the driveway.
