Sue Lloyd, UK
Debbie provided exceptional care for our tortoise, Broccoli, during her three-week holiday in Maidenhead, September 2024. The facilities Debbie provides are exceptional, which coupled with her expert knowledge and husbandry standards left us in no doubt that our tortoise would receive the very highest care during her stay. We would have no hesitation in recommending The Tortoise Hotel to tortoise owners going on vacation.

The Tortoise Hotel is a wonderful idea and a wonderful place. Our Big Geoff has been hibernating and having holiday stays with Debbie for years now and I would never consider sending him anywhere else. The enclosures are well designed with lots of space to roam and shelter. Lots of fresh weeds every day but most valuable of all is feeling secure in the knowledge that Big Geoff is well cared for and watched over by somebody whose knowledge of tortoises and their needs is second to none! Quite simply the Tortoise Hotel is first class.

The best place to take your tortoise while you are on holiday. Debbie is incredibly knowledgeable and the service she provides is incredible. Our 6 year old Hermann Tortoise Nasha has been there quite a few times. The hotel provides correct care for your Tortoise and makes sure you know you have given your Tortoise to someone who can be trusted. Nasha is part of our family, not just a pet. She means everything to all of us. When Tortoise Hotel is given Nasha, it is reassuring that she is being given to someone who genuinely loves tortoises as much as we do. Thanks Debbie.
