Caplor Farm has been my home for over thirty years — and the heart of a lifelong passion that has grown into something truly special.

​

My equestrian journey began at 19, training for my BHSAI and working as a yard manager before launching my own teaching and training business. I later trained at Hartpury College and continued sharing my knowledge through Pony Club and Riding Club instruction — all while building a parallel career as a community and public health nurse.

​

In 2019, I completed my LEAP qualification in Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy, which deepened my belief in the emotional intelligence and healing power of horses. It also reinforced my commitment to creating a calm, natural, and respectful environment for horses at every stage of life.

​

Here at Caplor, I’ve bred and produced my own horses, and developed a livery and retirement haven where horses can truly thrive — whether they’re just starting out or enjoying a peaceful, well-deserved retirement. Our approach is holistic, rooted in herd life, and centred on calm, consistent, and compassionate care.

​

At the core of everything we do is a set of values that guide us daily:

• We believe in inspiring both horses and humans — fostering confidence, connection, and growth through understanding and empathy.

• We are committed to a sustainable way of working — from thoughtful land management to practices that respect the long-term wellbeing of both horse and environment.

• And we are always improving — learning from every experience, staying open to new knowledge, and striving to provide the best possible life for the horses in our care.

• ​

This is more than a business — it’s a way of life. And every horse here is treated as one of our own.
