Host Brittany told Nottingham news that it took lockdown to “finally get the idea going”.

She said: “I believe one of the best ways we can improve the treatment of animals is by allowing people to interact directly with them and educating people on their care. 

“The space we had leant itself perfectly to allowing people to do this.”

“On the property we have more than just horses – we also have a variety of rescued farm animals that includes, cows, sheep, chickens, turkeys, two cats, and a tortoise.

“So far, everyone has loved the stay and it’s lovely to see people so excited to spend time with the animals.”
