Dovedale Animal Sanctuary is part of Lower Damgate Farm where you are staying. It is a unique experiance to stay near the animals as they will be reaching over the gate for an apple or carrot ( finely cut) and you'll be collecting eggs for breakfast and just taking in the ambiance of the farm where all you can hear is the sheep bleating or the cockrel crowing.... it truely is a wonderful place to stay. Welcome to Dovedale Animal Sanctuary a charitable non-profit organisation that provides a forever loving home to rescued farm animals. When you stay at Lower Damgate Farm you will meet all the animals at the farm and hopefully pet and feed them. Most of our animal residents have been at the farm for many years as the sanctuary we founded 1996. It is now home to over 100 animals including Alpacas, Goats, Horses, Sheep, Ducks, Chickens and Geese. We also provide respite for other little critters like Hedgehogs and Field Mice! Our holiday accommodation & weddings support Dovedale Animal Sanctuary and 25% all of our bookings go directly to the welfare of the animals, as well as farm sales like free range eggs and homemade jam. Your stay supports these animals and we honestly could not provide the welfare we do without your support. All our animals have a story to tell, so as well as rescuing them we also work closely with them from the moment they arrive, spending lots of time with them, giving them food and cuddles and in turn they get to know us and trust people again. It is wonderful to see their characters develop once they feel safe and secure….and some of them especially the goats, think they are human! Our Holiday and wedding guests often interact with the animals and all are welcome to join in with playtime and feeding or just to watch us working with them. Our animals love company and are very inquisitive and the goats and alpacas are very friendly, especially at feeding time! However, we ask that all visitors be mindful that these are still farm animals and all children must supervised on the farm. Our hens and ducks and geese are also all rescued and our guests are welcome to collect eggs from the hen or duck houses, alternately we leave some at the end of the drive for locals so first come first served! (Our hens roam all around the farm and Free-range eggs means that the hens are not dependant on artificial warmth to lay, so please don’t be disappointed if there are only a few eggs! If you would like to sponsor or give a gift for a birthday or special occasion, we offer personal certificates with the names of the goat or alpaca you would like to sponsor. Thank you
