Alpaca Walking - with Spring Farm Alpacas

Come and meet us and our amazing alpacas at Spring Farm nr Uckfield, East Sussex. We offer "alpaca and wildlife safaris" across our self contained farm in the High Weald AONB. We are ideally situated close to Sheffield Park, the Bluebell Railway and the Ashdown Forest. During the gentle walk we will tell you about alpacas, their fibre, UK wildlife and how we farm. When you arrive we will give you a few details as to practicalities and then introduce you to your alpaca. We then go for the walk which is over largely even ground within the farm's boundaries and will take approx. 45/50 minutes. On your walk you may see a selection of British wildlife. The farm is managed within Higher Level Stewardship which means we don't use pesticides or fertilisers on the fields - so the walk is through wildflower meadows and strands of woodland. There is always plenty to see in each of the Seasons. After your walk, we provide you with carrots (already chopped) to reward your walking partner! We then typically go to meet the mums/babies group of alpacas and spend time with them. If you are inspired by alpacas and their fibre, we can also show you the fibre side of what we do on the farm using our own alpacas fibre. Alpaca fibre is an incredible natural fibre and lends itself to luxury products. Alpacas are herd animals so we walk a minimum of two on any given day. Please note that the minimum age for walking an alpaca is typically 12 years old. We also allow accompanying walkers on the basis of a maximum one accompanying per guest walking an alpaca. We look forward to seeing you soon.

Knockhatch Ski & Snowboard Centre

Reviewed By busybeeee2016 - Eastbourne, United Kingdom

My son (15) is going on a school skiing trip and we booked four weekly lessons, one to one, as an introduction to skiing. I’m so glad we did this. His instructor Josh was brilliant with him, put him at ease with a good sense of humour. My son made great progress in such a short space of time. Book in advance as the slots get booked up quickly. I was so impressed with the Ski Centre - every member of staff was very friendly and extremely helpful. I have no hesitation at all in recommending this business. Thank you to all that work there ????

Broomhill Sands

Reviewed By hawkes2an - Cranbrook, United Kingdom

Adjacent to Camber Sands is that beach's apparently quieter neighbour, Broomhill Sands. Whilst Camber Sands has the cafes and the amusements, the only apparent amusement at Broomhill Sands is the very interesting garden (not accessible but can be viewed) at Seascape, one of the beachside properties. You also know when you have arrived at Broomhill Sands because there are two very distinctive notices; one telling you that you are leaving the lifeguard supervised area at Camber Sands and the other pointing the way in which dogs must be taken in the months from the beginning of May until the end of September [in that period dogs are not allowed on Camber Sands whilst, on Broomhill Sands, they are allowed all the year round.] You will also find Broomhill Sands is a totally different beach. Whilst Camber has the flat sands, Broomhill has shingle with groynes which, whilst not as easy to walk on, can be much more interesting to look at. Parking is available at Camber Sands or further along the Lydd Road at Broomhill Sands itself.

Drusillas Park

Widely regarded as the best small zoo in Europe Drusillas Park offers a fun finding-out day out. Brilliant play areas including Go Wild! Go Bananas! and Amazon Adventure. Plus a splashpad, Hello Kitty Secret Garden and African-themed three-ride attraction Go Safari! Get nose to nose with nature with our close encounters. It’s no ordinary zoo!

Reviewed By KTJ82 - Royal Tunbridge Wells, United Kingdom

I took my nearly 6yr old and nearly 3yr old to Drusillas a few weeks ago and hand on heart, it was amazing. Not one moan, whinge, sad face, dull moment for the whole day. Daddy rode on the Hello Kitty car in giggles, the 6yr old is now fascinated with the Lemur Family, the 3yr was wowed with the train ride, and I was content in watching and taking-in the laughter, fun and great day we were having. Everything was clean and well stocked, toilets smelled fresh, there was no queuing (apart from to get in, and even that didn't take long), we saw lots of happy animals (no empty pens or cages) and the restaurant food was excellent (highly recommend the jacket potatoes - yum!). We will be returning shortly, to see the rest of it, as the 3yr old was pooped in the afternoon, so we left out the Maze, parrot feeding, and large part of the play area. We can't wait to return for another family fun day. Thanks for having us! x
