Come and meet our alpacas this Christmas ~ cuddle, walk, feed and craft
29th November ~ 21st December
walk
Celebrate the season with a truly enchanting experience. Your visit will begin with an introduction to our delightful alpacas, where you’ll discover more about their gentle nature and individual personalities. You will then be paired with your own alpaca companion for a peaceful stroll through our picturesque grounds — a charming and memorable way to embrace the spirit of Christmas.
feed
Once your walk is complete, you’ll have the chance to help prepare and serve the alpacas’ feed, along with their favourite festive treats of carrot and parsnip — a moment they always look forward to! It’s a wonderful opportunity to share in their excitement, capture some magical photos, and even enjoy a gentle cuddle with your new alpaca friend
craft
After spending time with the alpacas, it’s your turn to relax and enjoy a delicious hot chocolate, while the children get creative crafting their very own alpaca bauble to hang proudly on the Christmas tree. They’ll also have the chance to prepare some magical reindeer food to take home — ready to sprinkle on Christmas Eve!
Before the experience comes to a close, there’s one final opportunity for photos with one of our alpacas dressed in his festive “alpaca-deer” antlers — the perfect memory to take away before it’s time to say goodbye.
