🦙 Alpaca Experiences 🦙
One of the largest herds of Alpacas and Llamas in the Lake District.
We offer highly rated experiences for customers, see our reviews.
If you love animals you will not be dissapointed.
We are located in the lovely village of Bardsea near Ulverston, right on the beach front, surrounded by woodland and at the foot of Birkrigg Common. Plenty of places to see and visit in the local area.
Our herd is constantly growing, we have Alpacas and Llamas, separate herds of females and males, all of them are different and full of character.
All visits must be pre-booked through our online booking system as we are not an open Farm.
Please note:
Our experiences are perfect for any animal lover. We enter the animals paddocks to see and feed them, they will get close to you 😊.
Some are shy, some are greedy, they are all different just like people.
When we do the alpaca walking we always try and match people to our animals.
It's possibly not suitable for extremely nervous Adults and Children i.e ones that are scared of other animals.
We always do our best to look after everyone.
Any concerns or for more info please message us before you make a booking.
Bardsea Alpacas and Llamas
Alpaca Walk including the meet and greet. Our most popular experience!
£28.50 per Adult walking an Alpaca
£26 for a Child aged 10 and over walking their own Alpaca.
£38 per Adult and Child (aged 6 and over) to joint lead an Alpaca together.
£15 per Adult spectator
(Please note there needs to be at least 1 paying Adult on each booking either joint leading with a child or as a spectator)
To walk alongside an Alpaca and joint lead with an adult, children must be at least 6 years old. A younger child can come along on the walk but they will need another adult to come as a spectator to look after them. (£15)
The walks take place within our grounds.
It's a short walk over a grass track with plenty of time for photo opportunities and to feed your alpaca treats. We then do a meet and greet with the rest of the Alpacas and Llamas.
The whole experience lasts between 60 and 90 minutes.
A minimum of 2 alpacas need to be taken out together. We usually put different groups together per slot, up to 8 alpacas are usually taken out together, but we can take up to 14 Alpacas and Llamas out for a Private booking.
We can sometimes do private sessions for larger groups taking out a few alpacas.
All visits need to be pre-booked in with us.
Booking in advance is recommended, weekends and holidays get very busy.
Any special requests please message us and we will see what we can do for you.
To lead an Alpaca you are required to use both hands to hold the lead rope.
Everyone on the walk must be fit and able, and good on their feet, it is quite an easy walk over grass and uneven ground with some slight hills. It's quite a short walk nothing too strenuous, with more time spent with the animals when we get back.
Appropriate clothing and footwear must be worn.
No dogs allowed
