Founded in 2008 by British expats Sue and Rod Weeding, our non-profit rescue centre saves neglected, abused and abandoned horses, ponies and donkeys across the Alicante region of Spain. We are open to the public every day from 12 pm to 2 pm (booking required), for a tour in our stables and fields, home to 120 rescued horses, ponies and donkeys. Hear the incredible survival stories of some of our most famous horses – including beautiful Bronson, who survived being beaten with a hammer and Luceiro, who lost an eye but remains one of our most majestic and spirited horses.

La Marquesa Golf, was designed and founded in 1989 by D. Justo Quesada, at it was named “Club de Golf Quesada”. Due to it’s proximity to Alicante city it quickly reached a significant number of members and at certain moments it was estimated that 80% of players from the province had hit their first balls there. In 1994 the name was changed to “La Marquesa Golf & Country Club”, a name which got to be known all over Europe, thanks to the Real Estate development created by the Quesada family. An ambitious project of more than 15,000 homes which they named Ciudad Quesada. This is a great residential development with more than 30,000 properties around the golf course. It was incredible to see how many different people from so many different nationalities became members , and have always created a wonderful and friendly environment. Throughout these years, important changes have occurred, technical as well as design improvements, but always respecting the principle of offering a varied route, where the player can truly enjoy the course as well as playing the sport they’re passionate about.
