As its a horribly wet and depressing winter thus far, and the alpacas are looking......well....'soggy', we thought we would cheer ourselves up with some photos of the herd when they first came here.

- Paul WA gentle walk with some gentle creatures, ideal if you want a calming experience in the beautiful Dorset countryside. Just a frisson of tension as you get to know your new companion. Will you get on? You would need to be a strange individual not to get on with these placid friendly animals. Highly recommended.
About Dorset Alpaca walking
Celebrate a special birthday, anniversary or special occasion, with this unforgettable and 'different' experience.
The walk takes around one and a half to two hours, and consists of an initial rounding up of the herd and learning all about our alpacas. This is followed by harnessing the chosen alpacas, and then a gentle stroll through beautiful Dorset countryside, or the local hamlet. We are located on a private lane set in parkland laid out by 'Capability' Brown, which is an area designated as being of 'Outstanding Natural Beauty.' The session usually ends up with one to one feeding of the alpacas with their favourite treats!
Have a chance to really bond with these delightful gentle creatures, in really beautiful surroundings, and take photos and videos so you will always remember this special day.
The cost is £25 per person walking one alpaca, or £15 per person (without an alpaca) accompanying their party or group. We accept a minimum of two people per session. It is suggested that children under 12 have a responsible adult help them walk their alpaca on dual leads. The charge for this is £35 in total for smaller child, accompanying adult and one alpaca.
As a further option you can then relax with a tea/coffee or soft drinks, home-made cakes and biscuits either on comfortable sofas in our stylish barn surrounded by classic cars, or outside overlooking the alpacas in their meadow. This costs an additional £5 per person.
