Les écuries de Valentine, c'est avant tout l'histoire d'une cavalière passionnée, amoureuse de chevaux de sport et de course. Valentine s'est toujours chargée de la reconversion de ses chevaux, convaincue qu'un gentil cheval mais inadapté au monde des courses a tout pour devenir le cheval d'une vie d'un cavalier d'équitation classique cherchant à s'investir dans une belle relation. Elle décide aujourd'hui d'ouvrir les portes de son écurie personnelle pour dédier plus de temps à la reconversion. Installée à 20 minutes de Deauville, elle accueille dans les meilleures conditions les chevaux qui vous ont fait rêver. Au programme : la vie dans des paddocks en herbe par binômes, des trottings à la plage ou en forêt, et un travail de reconversion au calme, dans la douceur. Ses écuries disposent pour cela de 5 hectares de prairies, une dizaine de paddocks, 500m² d'aires stabilisées pour l'hiver, ainsi qu'une carrière et piste de 1600m².
