About Us


Bow Brickhill Stables is located 6 miles from Pittstown, New Jersey in Hunterdon County, just 1 1/4 hours west of New York City, 1 hour north of Philadelphia and 15 minutes from the Bucks County Horse Park, PA. 

 

Many have asked about the origin of the name "Bow Brickhill Stables."  The farm is named after a village in Buckinghamshire, England where owners John and Maxine Alexis used to ride during trips back to Maxine's home in the U.K.  The woods around the village of Bow Brickhill featured an amazing network of broad, well footed bridle-paths where local riders could really let their horses stretch out. 


John manages the day to day operations of Bow Brickhill Stables, in conjunction with Laura Decker, Bow Brickhill's stable manager.  A team of instructors are available for lessons and training through all levels.

 

Maxine serves as a board member of the Alexandria Equestrian Association (AEA), which maintains the wonderful horse trail system in Alexandria Township and which organizes a variety of horse events during the year.  John is the AEA representative on the Central Jersey Horse Trail Coalition, an affiliation of horse associations in Central Jersey established in 2006 with the aim of facilitating the exchange of information and ideas among horse associations and combining efforts to achieve common goals.  Their daughter is a member of the Amwell Valley Hounds Pony Club.
