Select below:
Â
Available Monday to Friday,11:30am, this hands‑on experience lasts approximately one hour and is suitable for ages 12+.
You’ll help our keepers prepare feeds and hay nets, clean the enclosure, and feed our alpacas their favourite treats and browse, while learning fascinating facts about each of our alpacas.
Animal welfare is always our top priority, and sessions may be adapted or ended early if the alpacas need a break.
All participants must wear suitable outdoor clothing and sturdy footwear, as the experience takes place outdoors in all weathers.
The experience concludes with a certificate and an alpaca fact sheet to take home.
Prices are £30 for one person or £55 for two people and include farm entry.
Spectators are welcome but must pay standard farm entry (£7.95) and remain outside the enclosure.
Carers accompanying guests with SEND may attend free of charge.
Â
This is a lovely session for anyone aged 12 or older. Meet our cheeky goats for a 1:1 session, any day of the week at 11:30am. Please phone to see whether a weekend date is available.
The £20 cost also includes free entry onto Dales Farm.
The session lasts for 20 minutes and includes grooming and interacting with the goats inside their enclosure, with a member of our animal welfare team.
Additional family members will be required to pay farm entry (£7.95) if they want to watch and enjoy the farm, payable on arrival.
Our goat sessions are SEND accessible, where a carer can also attend for free (on production of a relevant carer ID).
Goat welfare is at the heart of everything we do. To ensure their wellbeing, our farm team may postpone or end a session if weather conditions or animal behaviour raises any concerns.
