Welcome to the Devon Horse and Pony Sanctuary
IF YOU HAVE RECEIVED ANY MAIL FROM THE 'PONY SANCTUARY' PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT US AND PLEASE CONTACT THE 'PONY SANCTUARY' DIRECT
The Devon and Horse and Pony Sanctuary situated on Dartmoor has been caring for horses, ponies and donkeys since 1976. Since then many neglected, abused and homeless equines have found a secure and loving home until the end of their days. Suitable and rehabilitated animals are found caring new loan homes but are always able to return to the Sanctuary.
Sylvia and Terry Phillips started the Sanctuary which gained Charity status in 1980. They began the principle of maintaining a small and personal establishment, which allows for each animal to be cared for as an individual and given all the love and attention they deserve. Since the beginning many children and adults including the disabled and the disadvantaged have gained great benefit from close contact with our animals and we still see this as an important part of what we do.
Visitors are always welcome at the Sanctuary, please telephone on 01647 221209 or email us and we will be happy to make time for your visit and ensure that someone can introduce you to all our animals and tell you their individual story. We do not charge for admission but all donations are always appreciated however big or small.
