Wow wow and more WOWS! It was our first time at The Little Shetland Company and it most definitely won't be our last. We all had such a great time on Easter Sunday, it was an Easter that we won't forget. Our daughter who is 4 years old was in her element, she was made to feel so comfortable by Katie and Poppy the pony. She loved the Bunny pony ride so much and enjoyed being able to groom Poppy too after her ride. It was a great personal experience and there was no rush to get the next child in which was really lovely. We all enjoyed the Easter egg hunt and feeding the piggies was lots of fun. Thanks for an amazing experience, we can't wait to return for your next event :)

We loved our trip here on Easter Monday to their Easter wonderland. My daughter, 4, rode a Shetland pony after brushing it and pampering it. She absolutely loved it. My son, 7 rode a huge horse. He was a bit nervous but the staff are lovely, calming and reassuring - he loved it when he settled into it. After our lovely little pony ride, we did their Easter trail which was lovely too. With a lovely egg at the end (of their choice). Refreshments on site, parking on site. Lovely afternoon out. Not cheap but definitely worth it.

Today we had the most wonderful Christmas experience! The little ones got to go on a Shetland Pony Pamper and Ride, followed by a visit to Santa and then we all went on a horse drawn carriage ride along the country lanes of Leckhampsted. It was simply magical. The smiles on my kids faces as they tottered around on Shetlands (and a bigger pony for Jacob) were enormous, and I have to say I almost cried to see them so happy and loving it so much. Especially as I rode as little girl and it would be amazing to see them doing it too. The owners and staff at The Little Shetland Pony Company are just lovely, Goldie the little pony Lily rode was 21 years old and was Rebecca’s first ever Shetland. As a family run business they take really good care of their ponies, the farm, and every little person that comes through the barn doors (and their parents for that matter). The indoor barn has been decorated as a grotto with various tracks for their ride so it’s all indoors / but also outdoors if that makes sense. With Christmas lights and trees and festive stops to see the elves making toys, presents under the trees, gingerbread cookies, and Santa, the kids are enthralled with excitement over and above the fact they are ON A PONY!!! 😍 They then groomed and decorated the ponies with bows!! Our Santa visit was just so heart warming, he asked very specific questions and made sure they understood the meaning behind being on (and staying on) the good list. They came out beaming with a little gift, sticker and chocolate coin in hand. Our carriage ride was also brilliant, Gandalf, the huge Cob driving us is so strong and even manages a pretty fast trot up two hills which made us all hold on tight. They also have hot and cold drinks, hot and cold snacks and cookies/donuts/marshmallow cones on offer. Masks must be worn as much as possible. And they have staggered visitors so you feel like nicely spaced out! We loved the whole experience and urge you to support their little Shetland business. All three experiences can be booked separately. They plan to run events throughout the year.

This was such a great trip out just before Christmas. I took my little girl to do the Christmas pony pamper experience. She absolutely loved seeing all the ponies and the decorated barn. The safety measures in place were great and we felt very safe. Unlike a lot of Xmas experiences this one felt really authentic and wholesome. We did the pony pamper which my little girl thought was AMAZING . There wasn't any tickets left to visit Santa but next year we will book that also as that looked like a lovely visit too. Well done Little Shetland Pony. We will be back !
