Our Animals
The Donkeys:
Amos & Bubbles
Amos is our thorough bred Donkey, who thinks he's the boss. A fun character full of mischief, but really only wants a ginger snap biscuit.
Bubbles is a beauty who came to us as the most obese donkey the vet had ever seen. Now she's fit and happy, and keeps Amos in order.
Our Pony:
Daisy
Our small but mighty miniature Shetland pony. She had a hard beginning to life but now loves life as chief goat herder.
The Goats:
Fleur & Bluebell
Fleur is Bluebell’s mum, our old lady of the herd, she is very sweet natured. Can you spot her wonky ear?
Bluebell is Fleur’s daughter, the most affectionate goat, she likes having her cheeks rubbed and getting brushed.
Willow
“Oh what lovely eye brows” as well as the best coat and golden locks. Bluebell, Fleur and Willow are all Royal Golden Guernsey coats.
Ruth
Our wonderful goat who thinks she’s a dog. A lovely character, friendly, inquisitive, mischievous and funny. She loves climbing high, as well as meeting new friends.
The Pigs:
Delilah & Phoebe
Delilah is the Houdini pig, the escape artist. She is smart and funny and loves to lie on people for cuddles, the hugging pig!! Phoebe and Delilah are both Kunekune Pigs.
Phoebe is very special with the kindest heart a pig can have. She notices everything and watches everyone, but will also love a back scratch.
The Sheep:
Hughie & Louie
Our pair of Valais Blacknose Sheep. They are magnificent gentle giants and are very rarely seen apart. They will raise their front leg for a treat, but mind their horns.

Dotty
Dotty is our very special lamb. She is one of this year's, orphans, and she is totally blind.
A lovely shepherdess from Ipswich gave us a call at the beginning of the summer asking if we would consider taking Dotty on. She knew this lamb was special.
Dotty has the most random baa, she walks with a funny little gait ... and is such a sweet character.
The Alpacas:
Casper, Ice & Oreo
Casper is one of our Huacaya Alpacas, named after the friendly ghost, and just as friendly especially if you have treats. Best friends with Ice.
Ice is the other of our Huacaya Alpacas, cool as ice, but he loves to meet new friends and go on walks with his best friend Casper.
Oreo is our Suri Alpaca, the same colour as an Oreo biscuit. He’s a friendly chap who loves a neck hug, carrots and apples!
