Sandbeck Farm

Welcome and thank you for visiting our website, we are very proud of our Shetland pony and Falabella stud and specialise in both miniature and standard Shetlands and 100% pure Falabella and welcome anybody that wishes to visit.

Our foundation stock was mostly small but based on the very best breeding with good strong bone, good conformation and temperaments, most ponies are registered with the Shetland pony stud-book society and in 2013 we took delivery of our first ever 100% pure Falabella horses.

We spent all the money that we could afford then and since to ensure that our breeding program progressed quickly and successfully. This included purchasing the son of the most famous miniature pony in the world Romany Paco called Bulkgwyn Toby from the owners of Romany Paco, we have since added to our stallions with Edern Carna, Edern Pibydd Y Traeth, Plumtre Cochise, Hermits Buccaneer, Hermits Admiral and Donabi Tecoda who are homozygous for the tobiano gene, so will always have coloured foals even to plain coloured mares. And in 2013 we have introduced two new Falabella Stallions and two young colts, who we are hoping will be our future Falabella Stallions.

Romany Paco is still the only miniature Shetland pony that has been a World Champion miniature, a European champion three times and a British Champion at the annual breed show, there has still never to date been any other miniature Shetland pony or other miniature horse that has done so well in the show ring.

Many of Romany Paco's offspring are now winning championships around the UK and Europe and we hope that Sandbeck ponies will do the same.

We feel very privileged to have bred these beautiful Shetland ponies for many years now and find ourselves as one of the leading suppliers of Shetland ponies all over the country, exporting ponies all over the world. We supply ponies to many different people including councils across the country for their public parks, having over 100 ponies and horses at any given time at our farm.

I hope you like our website and that you get what you need from it, don’t forget to visit our pony pages if you are interested in buying one of our beautiful ponies or horses.

Many thanks once again

Darren & Louise
