Join us in the Alpaca paddock for an hour of fluffy fun and friendly faces with our charming alpaca herd. Learn about these amazing animals and the wider farm initiatives, as well as meeting and feeding our alpaca herd.
This relaxed, easy-access session is perfect for guests of all ages – especially those who may not be able to join our alpaca walks. You’ll have the chance to meet, feed, and learn about our alpacas, while also discovering more about our wider farm projects and sustainable practices.
You will now be able to enjoy a range of locally sourced drinks, toasted sandwiches and sweet bakes from our Alpaca Café. As a pre booked guest you will also have access to our private gazebo area to enjoy your food and beverages or bring along a picnic should you wish to do so.
Come along for a gentle, joyful hour in the paddock – the alpacas can’t wait to meet you.

Our café horse box is open 10-3 for you to purchase hot or cold drinks, focaccia toasties and sweet treats, as well as our gift shop.
For Alpaca experience guests you will need to leave your fur babies at home as you will not be able to take a dog or any pet into the same paddock as the alpacas or near our livestock. If you are just visiting for a coffee in our café area, we allow well behaved dogs on leads. We reserve the right to ask your dog to leave the premises if they are causing the animals or other customers to feel anxious.
To participate in a Meet & Greet session we advise you wear wellie boots or walking boots as even in the dryer weather the ground can be unstable or a muddy. Please don’t wear shoes you don’t want to get messy. We will not take out anyone who is wearing open toe or heeled shoes and this is a health and safety issue.
