About
Get up close and personal with our herd of 6 female and 3 male alpacas for 60 minutes. This experience gives you the opportunity to learn all about these fascinating and unique animals, get hands on time with them and enjoy feeding them.
You'll love the rustic, authentic and beautiful setting of Mad House Farm, where you can enjoy the peace and quiet and amazing views while you hang out with the herd.
When you arrive at the farm, we'll talk you through the important health and safety practices so you're set up to have an enjoyable and safe experience. Next, we'll introduce you to the Alpacas and tell you a bit about them. Then, we'll provide you with food for the Alpacas and let them out of their pen to interact with you.
You will then have plenty of time to bond with the Alpacas, feed them and take photographs with them. During your experience, you can ask us any questions you would like and we'll do our best to answer them.
Enjoy meeting all the characters of our herd, such as crazy Daisy with her carrot addiction, sneaky Whiskey with her habit of appearing from nowhere and handsome Loki with his love of posing for selfies!
