The Donkey Sanctuary…

… is just a pleasant walk away from our campsite so William and I took a look at it.  Both our girls and their families had been to the sanctuary before and had enjoyed and praised it but I wasn’t expecting it to be anything extraordinary.  I was wrong.  This place is wonderful!  You can visit it’s website here.  This is the path leading to the sanctuary.  Benches everywhere to rest, watch the donkeys and enjoy the views.These donkeys have got to be the happiest donkeys alive!There’s a donkey hospital on site and I’ll bet it’s in a better condition than many an NHS hospital.Gardens immaculately presented with memorial plaques everywhere.  There’s a cafe too and also plenty of places to enjoy a picnic.I love how they’ve cut a donkey shape into the backs of all the benches. I’m sure we’ll be visiting here again on future holidays, I absolutely loved the place.

I'm joining in (for the first time) with Outdoor Wednesday over at http://asoutherndaydreamer.blogspot.com/  It's a wonderful blog with a window into many different people's worlds.  Take a look.
