We have a lot of new followers as of late!! Let us reintroduce ourselves.
The beautiful story below was written by Evie Tubbs Sweeney for Arabian Horse World magazine about a year and a half ago. It really sums up how the new owners came across the property and their hopes and dreams for the future of this beautiful, iconic, famous Sheila Varian estate!

New Beginnings - Varian Equestrian Center continues the Varian Legacy

She was just eight years old, an impressionable young California girl on one of many trips with her grandparents to bucolic Catalina Island. The island gifted Caprice childhood memories of its sweeping views, absence of automobiles, charming shops, and beautiful beaches. But today, they were doing something different. Something special. They were to attend a grand open house hosted by El Rancho Escondido – home of Philip and Helen Wrigley’s famed Arabian horse breeding program.

“The staff presented their Arabian horses in majestic pomp and circumstance. I’d never seen anything like them. They were the most magnificent creatures I’d ever laid eyes on,” Caprice recalls.

Little did Caprice know at the time that she and her future husband, Simon, would own one of the most famous Arabian horse ranches in the World: The Varian Arabians ranch in Arroyo Grande, California.
