STONEHAVEN ICELANDICS

About our horses

Stonehaven Icelandics is one of the oldest Icelandic horse studs in the United Kingdom and is unique in breadth and depth of experience.  The stud is owned and managed by Clive and Liz Phillips, both of whom have wide experience in Icelandics and other equestrian disciplines.

Stonehaven Icelandics offers the opportunity to purchase good quality home bred Icelandic horses from quality stock with a known background.  The stud maintains a herd of brood mares many of whom have been judged and proved themselves in their own right.  These mares are drawn from a variety of sources representing some of the best of homebred and imported bloodlines.  Various stallions have been used over the years as part of a continuous programme of improvement and selection.  The youngstock are allowed to mature and develop in a very natural environment before starting careful and experienced training.

We believe that the results of this breeding programme is  producing an exciting group of quality horses to be enjoyed by our customers, family and friends.  In some cases the horses are fifth generation of selected breeding of the best of homebred and imported horses.  Stonehaven Icelandics have supplied horses to private owners and riding centres throughout the country and many of these horses have gained respected reputations in their own right.

If you are interested on finding out more about acquiring an Icelandic horse from Stonehaven Icelandics we would be happy to discuss your requirements.  We usually have a select group of horses in training or youngstock for sale at anyone time.

In addition we stock and supply the Hrimnir saddle which is a saddle especially designed for the Icelandic horse.  See our page on Saddles, bridles and equipment.  From time to time special offers on saddles are available, or a used or ex-demonstrator Hrimnir saddle may be for sale, so please ask for details.  We can also advise on bridles and other equipment and assist you in sourcing these from UK or Icelandic retailers.
