About Audley

Our Rich Heritage

Audley Farm: A Legacy of Excellence in the Shenandoah Valley

Nestled at the northernmost edge of the Shenandoah Valley, Audley Farm is a 3,000-acre estate of rolling pastures, rich history, and breathtaking views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. For generations, this land has been home to a tradition of excellence—one that continues to thrive today.

Unlike most farms that specialize in either horses or cattle, Audley proudly excels in both. Our expertise spans world-class Thoroughbred breeding, purebred Black Angus cattle, and premium beef sales. This dual focus sets us apart, blending heritage and innovation to uphold the highest standards in both industries.

From the legendary Sir Barton, America’s first Triple Crown winner, to the finest Black Angus herds, Audley Farm has built a reputation on quality, dedication, and a deep respect for the land. As stewards of this remarkable property, we honor our past while shaping a future of continued excellence.
