Set along the historic Jurassic Coast and nestled in the tranquil East Devon countryside in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, our working farm is home to donkeys, mules and hinnies - large and small.

Explore our exciting new Visitor Centre, Understanding Donkeys Zone and Dr Svendsen’s Hut, and discover just why donkeys are so special. Also enjoy our scenic farm trails, guided tours, outdoor play area, Nature Centre and Maze. Head to the new Gift Shop for donkey-design items for every pocket. When it’s time to take a break, relax in our new family-friendly restaurant, The Kitchen and enjoy freshly prepared dishes using local, ethically sourced produce alongside stunning views over the donkeys paddocks out to the sea. The Donkey Sanctuary was founded as a charity in 1969, by Dr Elisabeth Svendsen MBE. Open 365 days a year; entry and parking is free. Dogs on a lead are welcome.
My family and I stop off at the Donkey Sanctuary at least twice a year on our visits down to see family in Cornwall. It is such a wonderful place for a stop off and the kids love to do the walks and spend some time looking at and learning about the donkeys. We always eat at the cafe which I have to say serves the most wonderful food and has such lovely views out onto the donkeys. We adore seeing how loved and cared for the donkeys are and have come to love donkeys so much we’ve adopted one! You won’t regret a visit!

It's rare to find a house that can be traced back to the 1200s but that's what you've got with Sand. We had a really interesting visit with an excellent guided tour by Caroline which was both informative and entertaining. This is a very special place and if you're lucky enough to be visiting East Devon when the house is open then it's well worth a visit. The house and gardens are enchanting and whole place has a lovely atmosphere.

We attended the gardens as our granddaughters were performing in the Exeter Youth Orchestra. The setting was a glorious day weather wise and the gardens were beautifully set out, the views from the cliff top were amazing. The cafe on the cliff edge was very busy (always a good sign) lots of food and drink orders being placed and as trays came out the food was excellently presented. As I waited in the queue to place my coffee order I spotted their cake display WOW, it looked awesome, I eventually chose a slice of Sticky Toffee Apple. It was a large piece and totally delicious, the coffee was good too. Would I go back ? DEFINITELY

Oak Mead was planned from the very start as a family attraction and opened for all to enjoy in Summer 2003. The course is a 9 hole par 3 and 748 yards long.All holes have a floral name (to compliment all the trees that mark the groves on Oakdown). Try your skills on Honeysuckle Bank, First Foxglove, Daisy Chain or Marigold Dip - excitingly near the landscaped lake!
Lovely cafe with fantastic food and extremely friendly staff! Ate before playing golf! All equipment needed to play golf given to you! Fab!

Close to the town centre, 10 minute walk from the seafront, clean and safe, perfect for dog walking. Worth seeking it out.
