'There are ten Giraffes currently at the manor,' says Giraffe Manor representative, Julia Perowne. “The giraffes come for breakfast and then appear sporadically throughout the day and in the evening.''They eat the horse pellets that we leave out for them, but anything they can get their hands on they seem to enjoy.
