ANIMAL SANCTUARY


Heartland Meadow Retreat is surrounded by protected bushland and rolling meadows that provide sanctuary for our rescued horses and ponies. We currently have 6 miniature ponies that were rescued from western Queensland and 3 horses who incurred life changing injuries and came to Heartland Meadows to rest, recover and spend the rest of their days being loved and nurtured. We also have 2 indoor cats rescued from the RSPCA and 2 dogs who like to come and visit our guests at the retreat. We are a registered “Land for Wildlife” property and in the early mornings and at dusk, the wallabies come out to feed and play. Green frogs are in abundance and the lorikeets and parrots often visit in the afternoons. Occasionally deer and their young bambis come to visit at the back of the property and we are currently developing a koala corridor.
