| The Shaker Barn housing our
main stable was originally located at the Hancock Shaker Village down
the road from BEC and moved to the property in the 1930's. The
barn houses 13 stalls, a wash stall, two grooming stalls, a large heated
tack room with individual lockers and is connected to an indoor arena
that will soon be converted to new 12 x 12 stalls. Our Barn
Manager also resides in an apartment in the building, providing piece of
mind for our boarders that someone is always close by.
Along with Berkshire Equestrian Center, the property is home to The Inn at Richmond - A Relaxing and Gracious Bed and Breakfast which includes a main house and four cottages. |

Recently
completed, the new heated indoor arena which measures 80 x 200 square
feet will enable BEC to provide year-round lessons, host
clinics and shows and serve as a refuge for boarders to ride during the cold New
England winters. Area Equestrians can also trailer their horses to
BEC to use the arena for a small fee. The arena includes a bi-level viewing area, office space and spa facilities. Attention has been given to ensure the facility is energy efficient and environmentally friendly. |

| Updated and renovated in 2006, the 150 x 250 sq. ft. lighted outdoor arena is equipped with eurofelt footing and a variety of jumps. |  |

Berkshire Equestrian Center also accommodates the needs of those traveling with their horses. Guests staying at The Inn at Richmond can be assured their horse will be well taken care of in our newly renovated 9-stall overnight barn located steps from the Inn. |
| Ten-acres of lush, green pastures and paddocks provide a wonderful outdoor experience for the horses. Boarders enjoy all day turnout. |  |
