Orkney is an island group off Scotland's north coast, reachable by ferry (or a short flight) rather than by road, and that genuinely shapes everything about buying a pony here — both the size of the local market and the practicalities of ever moving a pony off the islands. It is a small, self-contained community where native and cross-bred ponies are kept on good, if windswept, island grazing.

For a mainland buyer, Orkney is not a casual add-on to a search — factor in ferry costs, crossing times and weather-dependent sailings for both the viewing trip and, if you buy, the pony's onward transport. For island-based families, the local market is small but genuine, and a good pony is worth waiting for rather than importing at real expense from the mainland.

Frequently asked questions

How do you get to Orkney to view a pony?+

By ferry or a short flight from the Scottish mainland — there is no road route, so build crossing times and potential weather delays into any plan.

Is the pony market on Orkney large?+

No — it is a small, self-contained island community. Choice at any one time is limited, and patience matters more than on the mainland.

What should mainland buyers consider before viewing on Orkney?+

The full cost and logistics of both the trip itself and, if you buy, transporting a pony back to the mainland — factor both into your decision before travelling.
