A leading Victorian nursery, Swettenham Stud encompasses 900 acres of improved pasture on well drained loamy soil and is surrounded by some of the premier properties of the region, including Mitchelton Winery and Chateau Tahbilk, two vineyards to the immediate north, and Northwood Park to the south. Prior to being purchased by Robert Sangster and Colin Hayes in 1995, the land housed a well-regarded cattle operation belonging to the Sleigh family. Since then it has been transformed into a beautiful and very functional stud facility, encompassing facilities for stallions, mares, foals and yearlings.
