Lancaster Hill Stables o ers equestrian experience Julia Milligan describes her Celina business, Lan- caster Hill Stables, as being a boutique experience because she o ers personalized horse riding lessons to her clients. “I tailor each lesson and schedule to the client and horse they’re riding,” Milligan said.
Lancaster Hill Stables, which is situated on 7.5 acres, features indoor and outdoor arenas, an 18-stall barn, eight turnout paddocks, indoor and outdoor wash racks and tack room. Clients’ horses are boarded onsite and Milligan rides each horse daily. Quote of note When Milligan purchased the land for Lancaster Hill Stables in Celina, it was nothing more than an open eld. Today, she looks at what it has become with a deep sense of gratitude and accomplishment. “I feel very successful every day. I’m grateful I’ve always had wonderful clients that have been sup- portive of me and the program,” Milligan said. “Even on a hard day, I still think I’m living the dream.”
