Pets Corner

Because animals of all sorts are indigenous to farms and woodlands, a Pets Corner seems to have evolved naturally at Kelburn. Our current resident animals include goats, chickens, rabbits, chipmunks and our newest arrivals alpacas. Also, if you are quiet you may come across some of the wild animals that have made Kelburn their home including, foxes, squirrels, buzzards and housemartins. Needless to say, great care is taken our the welfare of all of our pets.
