Feels like heaven..!

Pros: In a world where Orwell seems to be getting more right by the day, it is a delight that this Animal farm is instead indeed an Animal Sanctuary.. more so, it is a paradise.. We loved to be greeted by the donkey, piglet or calf on returning.. the new whirlpool was an absolute delight at the end of the day, with the panoramic view over the mountain& valley.. We loved the friendly atmosphere during our four night stay an will return for sure..

Unique, fun, wow factor with beautiful views!

Pros: This is a really unique property, the room has a total wow factor and it’s nice to experience the animals, and the room overlooks into the barn, with peacocks, hens, pigs, sheep etc roaming - it’s very lovely - the barn is also lovely to sit in, we only stayed one night so didn’t get chance to do this too much, two nights would have definitely been better! Incredible view on to the mountains from the bedroom and amazing stars at night! It really is a special spot.

Cons: Slight problem with the toilet leaking which can obviously be fixed , and no WiFi

Amazing place - amazing experience!

Pros: The Barn is just a perfect place to totally unwind. The accommodation is just incredible with spectacular views & comfortable both inside and out. The loft wasnt missing a thing and thoughtfully decorated. Only regret was that we weren't staying longer! Roy was very welcoming and the staff were very friendly 😀

Pros: We had an amazing time at the Animal Sactuary. The personnel was super friendly, and the animals can enjoy a wonderful life filled with so much love and lots of space here. Our hotel room was really extraordinary, very clean and it had an incredible view at all the animals and the mountains. It is wonderful that there is such a fantastic place like this 😍🥰. Thanks to the founder and the personnel, who take care of this unique place for animals and visitors 🫶❤️!

Great as a 1 night experience !

Pros: It’s a unique concept, you really sleep above the barn with all the animals. The room was very spacious, super comfy bed, giant bath and the sauna + plunge as well as the sun deck were so goooood!

Cons: As you stay in a farm, be ready for a lot of flies and farm smell that comes and go. No AC in the room as well.

A unique experience in a special place. Relaxing, luxury and 109% would stay again. Great staff!

One of our favourite places in the world

Pros: This is an amazing stay id recommend to anyone, we got engaged here in front of the big fire and it was magical. The animals, the bed, the hot tub makes this into the best stay and one that'll stay with us forever Feeding the animals is a great highlight from 9pm and the puppies they now have up for adoption is so cute, my auntie even came and picked one up the week after we visited

Cons: Not being able to turn the hot tub off or there not being a insulating lid felt like a waste of power especially with a few power outages affecting the property (but that's just Africa)
