We had a brilliant time here cuddling, feeding, walking and bathing the Alpacas. Was a truly amazing experience set in a rural location away from the towns, so we felt that we had entered some kind of quirky alpaca world which we fully immersed ourselves in. The owner/tour guide was friendly and informative. We couldn't recommend this experience enough.

Nice environment for swimming. Friendly staff very helpful. Changing rooms get a little messy after children’s lesson however the floors are mopped afterward. The pool hoists a lot of children’s swimming lesson which is lovely to see.
