What a beautiful place. The horses and donkeys are so well looked after, lots of spaces to roam. The staff are very friendly and do an amazing job. Parking and entrance fees are free! You can donate if you wish and any proceeds from the gift shop goes straight back to the horses. Definitely worth a visit!

Absolutely beautiful place , lovely to have a stroll around to meet all the residents ( horses & Donkeys also staff).. staff friendly very informative and approachable.. Horses and Donkeys interact with you which is always an added bonus 😀.. after a visit around you can take a seat inside or outside the cafe which is onsite decently priced and clean ! Which has a lovely selection of cakes on display .. free parking with lots of spaces in main carpark and also a few outside the cafe. Lovely children's play area and a gift shop.. entry is free ( donation welcomed ) which can be done by card or cash... A little hidden gem worth a visit for anyone who love horses nature and walks ..

We took our Grandaughter who is mad on horses and although we are not we thought is was a brilliant place to go for 2 or 3 hours. So many horses and they all looked very well looked after. The meet and greet the horse lady was very knowledgeable and friendly and the cafe and staff were excellent too. We will definitely be visiting again and although they only take donations if offered or adoptions I do think they should charge something for admission as it would be expected by the general public and I am sure they wouldn't object.
