Such a beautiful little sanctuary. All the staff are helpful and the donkeys all seem so happy! It’s quite small so you only need a couple of hours, but it’s the perfect things to do on a Sunday afternoon. It’s free so we donated £20 on entry for such a good cause. The only downside is the cafe is completely vegan, now I’m sure the cakes were lovely (these days you can’t even taste the difference) , but having no option for normal cows milk in a good old cup of tea was disappointing, unfortunately milk alternatives aren’t for everyone, and although it’s fabulous to cater for Vegan’s, it’s a little unfair to force it on everyone as it’s not everyone’s taste . Had there just been the option of a little cows milk in a good old English cup of tea we would have stayed for lunch and cake.

We really appreciate your visit. Thank for your very lovely words about our sanctuary, donkeys and team…and thank you so much for your donation.
It does sadden us to read your views about our tea room, the ‘down side’ for you, is uplifting and refreshing for most of our visitors. We don’t cater for vegans the tea room ‘is’ vegan. It’s all about perspective, how conflicting to save one animal, but then condone the exploitation of another, this is not our ethos. Milk for a calf certainly does not align with our ethics. We have a heavily pregnant rescued donkey here; can you imagine the anguish if we took her new-born foal away?
We’re not forcing it on anyone Stephanie, there is always choice, sadly not for the animals.
Perhaps on your next visit try some of the various milks, happy for you to sample them all, you may be surprised!

5/5. Staff were very friendly. All donkeys were cared for and very much looked after. Definitely recommend the vegan cafe and their vegan sausage rolls.
Donkeys looked really happy and looked after in a nice warm environment with the care they needed from volunteers/staff.
Wonderful experience.

The Flicka Foundation is an extremely well maintained donkey sanctuary, with staff that care for the animals. Lots of rescue donkeys that now have a happy home, well worth a visit and please donate as every penny counts to looking after the animals.

This little gem was found accidentally when we stopped off at a pub nearby for food and wanted something else to do so googled it, and I’m so glad we did. The donkeys didn’t disappoint with a vocal greeting when we arrived. The farm is immaculate, clean and caters for all with easy access to get close enough for a snuggle with the donkeys and horses that have been saved and rehabilitated. Some residents are still poorly at the farm and being cared for expertly by the staff and volunteers.
There’s a lovely cafe and shop and to top it all off it’s FREE! Although donations are gratefully received and we dropped £20 in the box for a lovely experience in a fab location. Well worth a visit ❤️

Another lovely visit to the donkey sanctuary! Everyone who works there is so friendly and welcoming. The animals are obviously very loved and well cared for. We really enjoyed meeting Misty, the newest addition to the sanctuary. The sanctuary is very dog friendly, the cafe has a great selection of meals, drinks and cakes. We'll definitely be back again soon. Thank you Flicka ❤️

We learned a great deal about these magnificent animals, many of whom have been rescued from conditions of appalling neglect and mistreatment. Free to visit, there was zero pressure throughout to contribute but I was more than happy afterwards to make a donation towards their welfare and the truly inspirational team of people who lovingly care for them. Places like this, so often unsung, are doing real good in this world and deserve our time and support. Highly recommend.

We absolutely love this sanctuary, we are local and visit at least once a month. It’s so warming to see the donkeys in peace and basking in the safety of Flicka.
Top tip/ bring with you a few bags of carrots / ginger nut biscuits and give them to the person manning the gate, the donkeys will always appreciate it!

We had an overwhelmingly joyous visit to the donkey sanctuary. The place is beautifully kept and there are so many donkeys to see and stroke as they relax and munch away at their hay. The setting is glorious but what really moved me was the love and compassion that everyone we met who works or volunteers here showed to each and every donkey in their care. Most of the donkeys have been rescued from horrible circumstances and thanks to the team at Flicka they are now living the life that every animal deserves, full of love, warmth and with full tummies. The team are also incredibly friendly and knowledgeable to visitors and you feel that you don’t want to leave.
There is a cosy vegan cafe serving a good selection of hot and cold light meals and some delicious cakes, all reasonably priced.
Entry is free but donations are welcomed but not pushed and there is a well stocked small shop.
I thank everyone here for giving so much of themselves to the animals and sharing warmth with anyone who is lucky enough to visit.

Is the foundation suitable for disabled
Rédigé le 2 juin 2019
I work at the sanctuary as a volunteer, we are 100% wheelchair friendly, ramps into the tearoom and gift shop, disabled toilet, concrete walkways etc. Please ask if you need any assistance.

Are you allowed here if your pregnant ?
Rédigé le 5 mai 2019
Why not phone The Flicka Foundation to settle your concerns on this matter. I see no reason for pregnancy to be an issue . When I visited , there were many mums and children enjoying the animals so it was very relaxed all round.
Rédigé le 5 mai 2019
Think so, as there are tables outside not connected to the cafe. Enjoy your visit xx
