The Stables is a family run business, based on their farm, just outside of Gorey, Co. Wexford.  

In 2011, they converted one of the old Stables into a Personal Training Studio in order to diversify the farming business. They saw the beautiful old building and the location of the farm as an opportunity to attract people to a less conventional gym setting, whilst still providing a high quality training environment. 

They have continued to invest and develop the business further over the last 10 years and are very proud to run this fitness and wellbeing destination. There are now 5 Training Studios, an Astroturf and a 5km Obstacle Course, with over 30 fun and exciting obstacles. 

As individuals, they are passionate about keeping active and love the outdoors. Along with their wonderful team, they are delighted to share this special place with you and welcome you to come and see what The Stables is all about!
