That soft white mane, that kind eye, that “I’m kind of a big deal” expression. Valur. 🤍

Fleygur even looks cute in his Coggins photos. When does *that* ever happen? 😂

If you are looking for someplace quiet and peaceful on your next trip to Iceland we highly recommend this place. Great for non-riders and riders alike.

If you are dreaming of a peaceful Icelandic getaway, we highly recommend checking out our friends’ beautiful new guesthouse at Svalbarð in North Iceland - just north of Hvammstangi. 🇮🇸

This is exactly the kind of place people imagine when they think of Iceland: quiet open landscapes, fresh northern air, views over Húnaflói Bay and the Westfjords, a private shoreline, endless nature walks, birdlife, seals nearby, midnight sun in summer, northern lights in winter, and no neighboring houses in sight.

The guesthouse itself is a beautifully restored former hay-silage tower that has been transformed into a unique 60 m² apartment — full of character, history, and modern comfort.

And of course, for horse people, it gets even better: Hindisvík is an active Icelandic horse breeding farm, and guests can book private riding tours right from the property from May through October.

So if you are looking for a serene retreat where you can slow down, breathe the Icelandic air, enjoy the wild beauty of the north, and spend time with wonderful Icelandic horses, this is a very special place to put on your list.

You can learn more and book directly on their website:

It's a girl 🩷🎉

Our mare in Iceland, Aradís frá Sólbakkahofi (S: Nökkvi frá Syðra-Skörðugili) gave birth to a beautiful black filly by Eldur frá Bjarghúsum (8.35). We are very excited to watch her grow!

Happy 1st Birthday to Pine Spring Knows Her Mind of Sand Meadow CGC TKN ("Zora")! 🎉

When we first discovered the Tornjak breed, we hoped we had found the right fit for our farm and family — a dog with quiet confidence, loyalty, intelligence, steadiness, and enough independence to make good decisions without needing constant direction.

Zora has been everything we hoped for and more.

She is gentle with people, sensible around the horses, affectionate without being clingy, watchful without being dramatic, and beautifully suited to life at Sand Meadow Farm. She is also smart, independent, and very much in possession of her own opinions 😄

Of course, that same intelligence and independence means she can be a challenge. Zora is not a dog who blindly follows along without thinking about it first. She notices everything, evaluates the situation, and then decides whether our suggestion is worthy of her cooperation. Fortunately, she is so worth it.

She is also absolutely beautiful, inside and out, and has already become such a wonderful ambassador for the Tornjak breed. She represents so much of what we love about these dogs: steady, thoughtful, loyal, confident, and deeply connected to her family.

We are incredibly grateful to her breeder Pine Spring Kennel for entrusting us with this amazing girl. We feel lucky to have found the Tornjak breed, and even luckier to have found Zora.

Happy birthday, beautiful girl. You are exactly where you belong. ❤️

Valur has officially arrived at Sand Meadow Farm and is settling in beautifully. For now, his main job is standing around looking handsome until it’s time to meet the mares. He seems fully qualified. 😎

Sindri from Sand Meadow, owned by Debbie Noto, graced us with a visit today on his way home from our friends at Taktur Icelandic Horses, LLC . He’s looking all grown up, very handsome, and just a little bit aware of it. 😉 Thanks to for another safe trip.

New bridle day for Töggur! His Ástund bridle has a beautiful browband… allegedly. Most of the sparkle is currently under several inches of very determined forelock.

To properly appreciate the bling, he’ll just need to tölt fast enough for the hair to fly. 🏎️😂

If you want to order one of these gorgeous bridles for your own horse, send us a DM! And we also have the Stübben Golden Wings bit in stock too.
