Domaine des Crouquets
the cat's whiskers!
The land surrounding Les Crouquets is the habitat for the abundant wildlife from red squirrels to the rarely seen wild boar.
An early dawn or twilight visit to our woods may offer an exciting glimpse of a deer or other wildlife which has been a constant source of fascination for our own two children.
(The glow worms, which, after dark, can be seen as tiny bright green beacons among the herbs, are also quite an attraction!)
The animals tend to be quite shy however and most sightings will probably be purely by chance.

Miss Molly, on the other hand, is more independent and will often be seen around Les Crouquets,either basking in the sun or frolicking around as if it were her own vast playground.
Laphroaig (named after a fine Scottish malt whisky!) is a labrador cross and was a rescue dog.He has his own large run within the animal enclosure but you may see him when we take him out for walks. At just 2 years old he's still too boisterous to be out on his own!
Susie
Biff was here when we moved to les Crouquets and is Mum to Beano who was born here in May 07.
They very much keep themselves to themselves but they do help to keep the grass short!

Susie is a pyranees donkey and she joined us in June 07.
She loves attention and will bray loudly to get lots of it !She also appreciates any stale bread you have left over!

Les Crouquets is also home to our small group of family animals and birds, which unlike the wildlife, enjoy being seen!
