Equestrian centres require specialist infrastructure to ensure smooth operations and maintain high standards of horse care. At this Cotswolds facility, the owners had invested in a range of essential systems designed to enhance safety, efficiency, and usability. However, many of these embedded assets qualified for Capital Allowances, offering a significant opportunity for tax relief.
Our assessment identified several key qualifying assets, including stable ventilation and lighting systems to support horse welfare, arena drainage and irrigation for all-weather usability, and specialist flooring and surfacing to enhance stability. Additionally, the centre had installed security and CCTV systems, ensuring comprehensive safety for both horses and staff. These integral features, often overlooked in standard tax reviews, formed the basis of a successful Capital Allowance claim.
