How about this for the perfect gift?
If you are stuck for that special present for that special someone, why not adopt an animal at Manor Farm.
They can come and visit their adopted animal whenever they want, and, depending on the animal, groom them, fuss them and take them for a walk!
Its ethical, eco-friendly, and has a very, very tiny carbon footprint! We will even post the certficate to them and, if you wish, mount it in a smart presentation frame.
To give your gift that extra appeal, go for a Silver or Gold Adoption (with or without frame) and include free tickets for the family!
