Our story
Two decades of doing right by llamas
Caroline fell for llamas on an impulsive visit to Ashdown Llama Farm in 1999. Two years of saving later, a pair of llamas came home to rented fields, and the rest, as they say, is history.
After nearly fifteen years on rented land, the herd moved to Hill House in 2015, and the family secured the remaining land in 2019. Today it's home to 12 llamas, a number that suits the land and lets every animal be known and cared for individually.
Profits from every experience, adoption and gift go straight back into providing for the herd.

In their words
Five-star visits, again and again
“Caroline is absolutely brilliant! Her knowledge and experience with llamas made such a great day for my husband's birthday surprise. We learnt so much and it didn't take long to get to know their personalities.”
“A great day out for any animal lover. After feeding, grooming and walking the llamas we relaxed with a fantastic cream tea looking out over the nearby hills and fields.”
“We stayed in the Old Coach House for the weekend, next to the llamas. We absolutely loved it and got to meet all the lovely llamas (and a couple of alpacas), and we even took one for a walk! Adults and children both thoroughly enjoyed it.”
