We are based approximately seven miles from the Welsh border town of Monmouth, and have been breeding horses for nearly 50 years. Originally breeding Welsh Cobs and Welsh Ponies, and with the introduction of thoroughbred bloodlines the Stud has become recognised for specialising in the breeding of athletic Welsh Part-Bred performance horses.

The
Lan Garth Stud was founded by Mrs Dorothy Evans and her daughter Mrs Deidre Powell in the 1960’s and they have now been joined by Mrs Evans's granddaughter Judith Powell. As well as taking an active part in the stud duties, riding and competing with the Stallions and Young stock, Judith was the Young Ambassador for the Welsh Pony and Cob Society in 2006 and represented the Society both in the U.K. and abroad. Mrs Dorothy Evans, in recognition to her long interest in the breeding quality Welsh Ponies and Cobs was  made an Honorary Life Member of the Welsh Pony and Cob Society and she took a keen interest in Stud matters until her death in 2010.

Lan Garth Stud has a careful selective breeding programme to give ability and temperament, each given time to mature and grow into successful athletes competing in many equestrian spheres. Their versatility is demonstrated by the Lan Garth progeny’s many successes in the Eventing World with several horses currently competing at an international level as individuals and as team members representing Britain and the USA, as well as a number of young horses moving up the rankings in their various spheres.
