About

And it was once upon a time of our multi-award winning Social Enterprise...

Our mission is to rescue and rehome alpacas and llamas from all over the country and give them a wonderful new home with the very best of care, while bringing people in touch with the landscape and the natural world through outstanding alpaca and llama experiences, accessible to all and surrounded by the beauty of the Lake District World Heritage Site.

Alpacaly Ever After has been in the top 10% of activities in the whole world according to Trip Advisor 'Best of The Best' list from 2020 - 2022!

And so it was once upon a time when The Lingholm Estate was the perfect place to live alpacaly ever after! Situated on the Western Shore of Derwentwater in a dramatic location, it is surrounded by incredible views of some of the best loved Lakeland fells.

Stroll at super relaxed alpaca pace through the private grounds of the estate where Beatrix Potter spent many summers. Get to know our wonderful alpacas up close while they snack along the way, take them for a paddle in the lake, meet the herd, take part in feeding time and ask as many questions as you can think of! The walk is a flat gentle stroll suitable for all abilities/mobilities and can be adapted for wheelchair users. Watch our activity video here

 

As a Non-Profit Social Enterprise all the income from our activities goes back into supporting the work we do re-homing and rescuing alpacas and llamas, and providing free and subsidised activities for third sector organisations!

Advance Booking Essential

If you're looking for something else, we have other activities you can choose:

1. Walk with our Alpacas at The Lingholm Estate and paddle in the Lake.

2. Meet and Greet our Alpaca Mums and Babies at The Lakes Distillery.

3. Walk in Whinlatter Forest with our Alpacas and enjoy views of Keswick.

We have a selection of Gift Vouchers for each activity so if you can't decide, head to our website for more details!
