Donkey Walking at East Clayton Farm

Our Donkeys

All our donkeys have come from Ann Hunt’s beautiful herd in Guildford. Ann has been breeding donkeys since 1961, and our donkeys are ex racing donkeys. Now their racing days are over our donkeys are very happy to be accompanying people on gentle walks in Sussex.
