Meet and greet our furry and fluffy friends
It started with one horse, Stig, but very quickly she was joined by a pony called Herbie and then…by rabbits, guinea pigs, a Miniature Shetland pony, another horse, alpacas, Pygmy goats, Runner ducks, geese, chickens, and two very inquisitive emus. Geese aside, they’re all very friendly and if you’re staying with us we can organise for you to come and meet, greet, feed, groom, pat and walk some of our animals. You’ll find a few more details on some of the animals below. Contact us for more details.
Our two alpacas, hopefully soon to be three, were quite nervous when they first came to us, but they’re slowly growing in confidence and will readily eat from your hand. We’re hoping to put some halters on them this spring and start taking them for walks.

Named by our young daughter, Cookie and Flapjack are full of character. They’re always hungry and guests can feed them - often fruit on sticks - and, if you’re brave enough, run with them.

Not much taller than a Labrador, Lance is one of the most popular animals on the ‘farm’. A real cheeky chappy, guests can meet Lance, along with our other three horses, and take him for a walk to meet the other animals.

Our three Pygmy goats all have very different characters. Pip, the smallest of the three (he really is tiny) can be a bit elusive, Freddy acts more like an excited dog than a goat and loves being fussed over, whilst Patty is a true escape artist.

There are Runner ducks, chickens (of all shapes and sizes) and rare-breed geese to meet and feed (dependent on bird-flu restrictions). The Runner ducks are a firm favourite and can often be seen dashing around our fields searching for slugs.
Feathered
Our rabbits and guinea pigs live together and always welcome a carrot or two. The rabbits are a breed called Rex and they have especially soft fur, making them a favourite for stroking.
