Toilets are located at the farm, 150m from the site. They are older facilities but perfectly clean and functional. We generously provide access to the volunteers' area where the WC/shower are located; however, we find it unfair to receive negative comments about the facilities 'needing a refresh' (the photos are current, so there are no surprises). For anyone wishing to complain, we invite you to either contribute to the renovation costs or simply not use them 🤷🏻‍♀️. A little common sense and understanding would be greatly appreciated. We are an association dedicated to rescuing mistreated animals, and we do not have thousands of francs to invest in immediate bathroom renovations. A manure skip is available at the entrance for your compost, and next to it, you will find a bulky waste bin for your trash.

We arrived in the middle of the afternoon, the children were able to join Wendy to feed the animals. It was great, they really enjoyed this moment of sharing. Wendy is very friendly, the location is wonderful. Perfect! We 100% recommend.

Where do I even begin when talking about this place—or should I say, this paradise? The kindness of the owner, Wendy, or of all the volunteers? The warm welcome we received was incredible. The volunteers gave us a tour of all the rescued animals, sharing their names and their stories. We were showered with a wave of love from every single one of them. It felt just like home, and we didn't even want to leave anymore. Thank you for everything, Wendy ✨❤️

"Pasture next to pasture" with ponies and horses, a special outdoor experience! Lots of space and everything you need is there. 😊

Friendly welcome, right in the heart of the animal shelter. The nearby kennel at night is less pleasant. However, it's a pleasure to contribute to such a noble cause. A small downside regarding the shower, which could use a bit more privacy with a door.
