Corfu Donkey Rescue, Paleokastritsa

A beautiful, meaningful place. We came yesterday for a short visit and stayed for many hours. The people at Corfu Donkeys Rescue are very friendly and very proud of what they do. They have explained everything about the donkeys, showed us around and answered every of our many questions. We have fallen in love with the animals there (especially with one ginger cat, which followed us around). Everyone seems very happy and we left feeling the same. Please, come for a great experience and please, donate. I would like to thank to the staff of CDR one last time for the best day at Corfu so far and please say hello to the cat we fell in love with, he is a good boy :).

The Donkey rescue Center really is a sanctuary. Tucked in between the olive groves and meadows you can tell that it is a peaceful place where the donkeys are well taken care of. The staff is friendly and explain about what the mission is and let you walk around freely to pet and comb the donkeys. There are also a lot of rescue cats and dogs on the premises. The entry is free and there is no one bugging you to give any money even though there is a box if you wish to leave any donations. You can also bring cat and dog food, but as instructed please do not feed the donkeys as some of them are in quite a bad shape and require special diet which the Donkey rescue center team is taking care of. Worth a visit, just be careful and drive slowly on the white road as it can get quite bumpy to get there and you can damage the bottom of your car if not careful.
