Shetland House is owned by the Society.
The daily running of the Society is conducted here and Council Meetings are held on the premises in the boardroom four times a year. The International Shetland Pony Committee Meetings have been hosted here several times.
Members are very welcome to take the opportunity to call in person at Shetland House where the office team will make you very welcome and there are lots of interesting books, artifacts and displays to see as well as Shetland Pony promotional items for sale.
