The Flicka Foundation - Donkey Sanctuary

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU WRITE YOUR REVIEW. The Flicka Foundation is a sanctuary for donkeys. We are NOT an attraction, but a working sanctuary that spends seven days a week rescuing and rehabilitating donkeys from cruelty, neglect and abandonment. We welcome visitors through our gates 'free of charge' to see our work and meet our big family. We have a tea room serving delicious light snacks and home made cakes and a small rustic gift cabin with some donkey merchandise (both help with charity funds), the rest of the centre is dedicated to our rescues enjoying being free, loved and cared for, they are the priority here, their happiness and as much free will as we can give them. If you are looking for lots to do and see Flicka is not the place for you - if you love animals and want to see alot of contented donkeys and ponies living in peace and tranquility please visit they would love to meet you - we would too!! ;-)

Well worth a visit to support the wonderful work of this amazing sanctuary, it has a new parking area, a super cafe serving reasonable priced snacks, a small gift shop, friendly caring volunteer staff and of course the gorgeous donkeys who are the lucky ones to be given a loving home for life. It’s free to enter but all donations are welcome and needed to help care for the donkeys.

Quarry Target Sports

Due to the current situation and social distancing rules "Quarry Target sports" is closed to visitors. Once I have found a way to work within our new dynamic I hope to re open with the full range of activities, however this will likely be in the Spring of 2021.

Kernow Adventure Park

Kernow Adventure Park is Cornwall’s hidden outdoor activity centre, for family days out and thrill-seekers, with an Aquapark, open water swimming, wakeboarding and paddleboarding all set on a secret, tranquil, crystal-clear lake sunk into the earth. With a glass-fronted clubhouse, cafe, bar and its own beaches, this idyllic quarry is a little oasis, a safe playground and a social sanctuary cocooned within nature. What started out as a wake park for our friends has been transformed into an adventure centre for the whole family. Adventure is calling – be adventurous together.

Enys Gardens

Reviewed By 172daphnet - Coaley, United Kingdom

We were very fortunate to have wonderful weather which emphasised the beauty of the estate.  The bluebells were well on the way. giving a lot of background colour, the  rhododendrons were just amazing....the huge bank of them at the back of the house were just stunning! Then the primroses, primulas, snakes head fritillaries.....just exceptional! And then....we were just stunned by the huge mature trees, especially the Spanish Oak. The history was very interesting....it certainly goes back a long way, and it's interesting to see that there are plans for the future. It was lovely to end up with tea and cake on the seat looking down at the ponds. All in all, a great visit. Thank you for all the work that has been put in to restore this wonderful estate.
