We are celebrating our most successful breeding season yet, with 13 alpacas born across the farm this summer. The arrival of the new cria (baby alpacas) marks a record for us, with our previous total of eight in one 'unpacking' season. We first began breeding black alpacas in 2018, opened the Barn to the public in 2022 and have brought mums and cria to the Barn for the first time in 2025. Our most easily spotted cria is Fae, a little pale fawn girl - very different from our usual black alpacas, and she's proven to be a hit with visitors already. Book in to an Alpaca Experience and you might just be lucky enough to get a closer look at the beautiful babies this Summer.
Enjoy a private alpaca experience tailored just for your family or group this summer. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday or simply soaking up the sunny season, we’ll shape the session around your interests—spending quality time with your favourite jpeople and alpacas, including this year’s adorable babies. If you’re curious about alpaca ownership, we’re happy to chat more deeply about their care, husbandry, and the realities of farm life.
The experience takes around 45 to 65 minutes, depending on the group size.
Midday is the available time to book online. Please email info@wolfridgealpaca.co.uk if you are keen to book another time of the day. If you have a larger group and are also considering an afternoon tea or craft workshop, please also email us at info@wolfridgealpaca.co.uk.
We require one adult for every two children age 4 to 12 years old. Unfortunately this experience is not suitable for children aged 3 and under.
Your children will adore seeing our babies this summer! This experience is for children age 4 to 11 years old. We spend time getting close to the alpacas by feeding them, either with scoops or out of hands - depending on what the young person is comfortable with. We start from behind a fence so the children can build their confidence with the alpacas. We talk about what the alpacas need to keep them healthy and do some of the practical jobs such as raking up old hay and putting fresh hay out. This is a super fun and practical session with the entire focus on the participating children. Supervising adults are very welcome to take photographs of their little ones!
The experience lasts for around 30 to 40 minutes and costs £9 per child. We ask that one adult supervises a maximum of two children. There is no charge for the adult. In busy sessions, we can only allow one adult per two children in to the session. Appropriate footwear (wellies or water proof shoes) and clothing (water-proofs if a chance of rain) are required. Please do not wear open-toe sandals, crocs or flip-flops.
Come and see the babies as well as enjoying our fabulous afternoon tea with prosecco! Perfect summer afternoon, cute alpacas, fabulous food and bubbles! Celebrate birthdays, anniversaries or simply yourselves with a unique experience to remember forever!
We are excited to be able to offer you both day-time and evening needle felting sessions, both 'open' workshops and 'private' for groups in our Evening Workshops.
