Sunny Brook Stables isn’t your typical lesson barn — we’re built on heart, safety, and true horsemanship. Located in East Cobb County in Marietta, GA, we’re a family-owned farm offering a warm, supportive place for riders to grow in compassion, responsibility, confidence and skill.
We specialize in English Hunter Equitation riding, with one-on-one instruction for beginner riders, group and team lessons, and an active adult riding program.
Our focus is simple: high-quality one-on-one or small group teaching, strong foundations, a nurturing spirit, and safety first — always.
Horses First.At Sunny Brook, our horses aren’t disposable. We never sell them off, send them to auction, or “retire them elsewhere” when they’re older or can’t work as much. Instead, we commit to giving every lesson horse a dignified retirement or rehab with the care, stability, and love they deserve — for life, and where each and every lesson horse will retire into our sister charity, Red Heart Horse 501c3.
All profits from Sunny Brook Stables support Red Heart Horse Retirement, Rescue & Rehab (501(c)(3)), helping retired, rehabbed, rescued. and special-needs horses live safely and comfortably at home for the duration of their lives.
Healing Horses, Healing Hearts...
The Heart of Horsemanship.
Our students don’t just learn to ride — they learn to understand the horse. From farm life and stewardship, to communication, balance, rhythm, and leadership, riders grow into confident equestrians with skills that extend far beyond the arena.
A Better Way to Learn — and to Show
Sunny Brook riders can join our show team without owning or leasing a horse, making competition more accessible while building a stronger, more adaptable rider by learning on different horses.
For the love of the horse... Dr. Grania Gothard Holman Barn Manager & Business Owner of Sunny Brook Stables Founder, Director, & President of Red Heart Horse Retirement, Rehab, & Rescue 501c3
