Galahad's Animal Sanctuary has rescued many animals, including camels, horses, donkeys, cows, sheep, alpacas, chickens and a rooster as well as dogs.

Animals can be noisy e.g. a rooster who crows in the morning, and a camel who growls when she is pleased to see you. Not to mention the donkeys!

Galahad's Animal Sanctuary and B&B
Perfect B&B stay with animals!
We had a great time staying at Lynne's B&B. The room was very neat and had everything needed - a small dining table, comfortable king size bed with plenty of pillows, cushions and blankets, a sofa, a small and tidy kitchen with appliances. Lynne is doing a great work taking care of the rescued animals, my 4 yr old boy loved interacting with the animals - camels, horses, ponies, lots of sheeps, alpacas, dogs. I would highly recommend Lynne's property for a weekend getaway.

My favourite birthday yet!!
Such a beautiful weekend. Lynne was fantastic, answered all of our questions about the animals and gave us SO much time with each animal! The room was beautiful, clean and stocked with so many snacks! It is the perfect place to get away and reset. The air is so clean and the views are absolutely amazing! I would absolutely go back and I recommend it to anyone who loves animals or just wants to get away from the noise!

Loved the animals and views.
We had a lovely weekend with family on Lynne’s property. The team was all so lovely and welcoming, and we loved the opportunity to feed the animals and hear their stories. It’s a tight squeeze for caravans, so be aware. It’s a big enough property to explore, but small enough we were happy for the kids to explore. Thanks Lynne, you have a lovely sanctuary.

My granddaughter and I stayed at Galahads Sanctuary for 2 nights. Lynne made us feel very welcome. The BnB has everything to make our few days relaxed and very special. The animals are all Devine, Lynne is doing an outstanding job rescuing and then caring for them all. The sanctuary is full of love and care. We can’t wait to return. I totally recommend staying at Galahads. Staying at the BnB helps with paying the huge animal feed bills.

We had a great time camping at Lynne’s Farm. The views were amazing, we were surround by tree’s which made it feel more private, all the kids loved having a tour of the animals and helping feed them. Only down fall was the planes overhead were abit loud early in the morning but it wont stop us from returning. We really enjoyed our stay and Lynne was great to deal with.

We had a wonderful time visiting Lynne’s B&B. The room was warm, comfortable, clean and super well-stocked. Our dogs were right at home in the well-fenced yard. We had a great time hanging out with Lynne’s rescue animals and seeing the work she does. Can’t recommend it enough, especially for animal lovers!
