Redwings Horse Sanctuary
Located in Caldecott, just half an hour from the lodge, is Redwings - home to around 100 horses and donkeys and a beautiful day out.
With a café on site and dogs welcome, this is a wonderful place to visit if you have a love of animals and would like to see the excellent work of Redwings. Entry is free, although a donation is requested, and you then have free reign to wander around the paddocks, visiting all the different ponies, horses, donkey and mules. Tickles and cuddles from the fence line are encouraged with plenty of antibacterial handwash available between hellos.
We took our dogs during our visit; Poppy (the cocker spaniel) was very interested and wanted to greet all of the horses, she made friends with the donkeys who took an equal interest in her! It’s such a beautiful location for a walk with the added benefit of Oliver’s Café which serves delicious sausage rolls and cake!
