Our Little Corner of ParadiseWelcome to Wellington Florida! The village of Wellington is located in Palm Beach County, and has been selected by Money Magazine as one of America's top 10 small towns. From November through April, the days are balmy and nights are cool. The International Horse Show in November, followed by the Winter Equestrian Festival - January through April - attract the world's top jumper-, dressage-, and hunter jumper riders, along with equestrian enthusiasts. State of the art multi million dollar trainers' barns and luxury equestrian estates, many connected by miles of horse trails, dot the landscape. Palm Beach Polo CC offers two 18 hole golf courses, surrounded by meticulously landscaped neighborhoods for the discerning resident. Members also enjoy tennis, croquet, and bridge. Every evening, residents and their dogs gather together for play and general socializing! The new International Polo Club is home to the coveted U.S.Open Polo Championship, and offers high goal Polo every Sunday, during the Season. West Palm Beach Airport is a 15 minute ride away; 20 minutes to Kravis Cultural Center, for concerts, opera and plays; 35 minutes to the beaches and boating facilities. Wellington has recently added a mega shopping mall, while West Palm's City Place and Palm Beach's Worth Avenue offer countless luxury items. Restaurant choices also are virtually endless! Wellington schools are A-rated, and seasonal tutoring for equestrian youngsters is readily available. At present, there are plans for the expansion of Wellington's equestrian areas. Within the next few years, our village aims to be the world's #1 equestrian destination. We are proud and happy to be a part of this little Paradise! |
