A lovely farm to visit with very friendly animals and suitable enclosures for them. The two ladies who greeted us were very kind and offered us a free bottle of water given the heat. A short quiz was available throughout our visit. Thank you so much!

A setting that respects the needs of all the animals, and you can immediately see that they're all very happy and content. I was with three teenagers aged 16-17, and we toured the farm and participated in the donkey club activities with Bérénice, who is lovely and whose deep commitment to the well-being of all her residents is evident. Everyone had a wonderful time; it was fantastic. Thank you again for your hospitality.
