How adorable are alpacas?! With those intelligent doe-eyes and cute grins, their innocent Bambi vibes make them some of the most appealing animals around. Get up close and personal with the friendly alpacas at Stubbs Farm during an experience perfect for animal lovers big and small. You’ll meet the alpacas and be able to feed them, stroke them and take as many selfies as you want while you learn all about your new fluffy friends.

Members of Camelidae family, alpacas are cousins to llamas, guanacos, vicuñas, and camels. Natives of the high, arid Peruvian Andes, where they’re still abundant today, it’s believed alpacas were domesticated more than 6,000 years ago by the Incas. In those days, their silky, versatile fleece was reserved for the nobility. But today you can buy beautifully soft yarn, grown by the very alpacas you’ll meet at Stubbs Farm’s own shop on Etsy.

The perfect gift for animal lovers in Norfolk, a session meeting the alpacas lasts around 90 mins. It’s great if you want to fully interact with them but have limited time or smaller children with you. Spending a while with these curious, good-natured creatures is a lovely multi-generational activity or treat for grandchildren.

Weekends are incredibly busy so book well in advance. Private experiences are available too and it’s not uncommon to see a few Stubbs Farm alpacas turning up at weddings! Can’t make it yourself? Alpaca experience gift vouchers make the best presents for animal lovers!
