Unforgettable Journey

Our Donkey Discovery experience offers an unforgettable journey where you can learn, relax, and experience the simple joy of being with donkeys.

Donkey Bonding

Donkeys are known for their gentle and affectionate nature. They have a unique charm and an innate ability to form strong bonds with humans.

Discovery experience

In our two hour Donkey Discovery experience, you will be immersed in a small herd of 6 donkeys. Designed to provide you with an opportunity for creating a connection with these remarkable animals….and providing you with moments to cherish.

WHAT Our customers are saying about us

Sarah is a wonderfully compassionate, patient and kind person, who instinctively knew it was possible for me to connect with horses once again after many years. My life trauma is finally behind me now, and I can move into the future with the confidence I once had. Thank you Sarah, you are amazing
