Thank you for my lovely stable, I couldn’t be more pleased. It is really well built and solid, with clever features like the sliding window. Your men were very efficient and did a great job. I would certainly recommend you to my friends for your prompt and efficient service.

I think that’s my stable yard in the photo! Bought 2 large mobile shelters and 3 stables and tack room from this company, great quality, price and customer service! Highly recommended.
Great quality and service – Longcross built my stable block 3 or 4 years ago and I’m thrilled with it! Highly recommended.
