We attended the Alpaca adventure for a friend's 12th birthday treat. The girls had a great time feeding these delightful animals and despite the weather we had a great time meeting all the alpacas. It was a very informative but informal afternoon with lovely friendly people hosting it. We were spoilt with delicious homemade scones and cakes. Sharon, Downham Market
Thank you so much for a great afternoon on our Yew Tree Alpaca Adventure. We both really enjoyed learning and meeting your gorgeous alpacas. It was great to be able to stroke them and feel how soft and thick their fleece is. Victoria, Hertford
