What To Expect

The Gypsy Gold Farm

our first forty five minutes is an educational journey conducted by Dennis Thompson, the discoverer and founder of the Gypsy Vanner Horse breed. Dennis and Erin will then introduce you to a Gypsy Vanner stallion and explain the envisioned look and details unique to the Vanner breed. Your second hour is a walk among horse filled paddocks lined with ancient oaks laden with the romantic Spanish moss of the south. On your walk you will meet beautiful stallions and mares and friendly Gypsy Vanner Horse babies. Your Gypsy Gold Farm Tour ends with a picture opportunity with an incredible Gypsy Vanner Horse stallion and a visit to the Gypsy Gold gift shop.

The whole tour was amazing! Loved the story telling and the dreams of the owners to make the grounds an educational center!

We had a small group of 19 leave The Villages on a Workman Transportation bus. We were greeted by Dennis Thompson who is a walking encyclopedia of horse facts and entertained and educated us for 4 hours. He’s a character with a vision and a keen sense of humor. A beautiful Fall tour of a lovely 40 acre Horse farm. Also donkeys, goats, parrots and a beautiful show barn Excellent family tour. Highly recommend

Thanks for your wonderful review TRLinn, however the tour is only two hours it just felt like four :) Cheers, Dennis and Erin

We really enjoyed our trip to the Gypsy Gold Horse Farm. The talk Dennis gave was informative and interesting. We were impressed with the amount of respect and dignity he gave to an often marginalized and belittled community- the Romani/Gypsy. It was refreshing to hear someone who had a deep love for educating himself and others about both animals and people, looking to stamp out prejudices. The farm is beautiful and we loved getting to feed and interact with the animals (horses, mules, donkeys, goats, birds). Be aware that you may want to bring bug spray. There are also fire ant hills on the property so wear appropriate footwear.

Dear Nora, thanks for the great review and for recognizing the opportunity the Vanner Horse holds to also bring a better understanding of the people who created it. Please return one day, Dennis and Erin
