About

A family-run alpaca farm near Kilkee where you can hand-feed, cuddle and walk gentle alpacas, meet goats, chickens and the farm dog Yuki, and even make your own soap.

Things to Do

Alpaca Meet & Greet

A relaxed 30–40 minute session for all ages in which you hand-feed, pet and photograph the herd. Runs from €11 per adult and €7 per child (2–11); under-2s go free.

Full Alpaca Experience (6+)

A 1.5-hour session that combines the meet-and-greet and the walk with a demonstration of processing and hand-spinning the alpacas' wool inside the farmhouse. From €30.

Alpaca Walk (8+)

After a short safety briefing and some treats, lead your own alpaca on a gentle one-hour trek around the farm. From €23; children aged 8–11 share the lead with an adult.

Handmade Soap Workshop (4+)

A 90-minute indoor workshop where you blend natural essential oils, colours and dried flowers and take home your own soap. From €30, and a good wet-weather option.

Farm shop and alpaca wool

The farm shop sells handmade, 100% Irish-made goods from the herd's award-winning fleece: beanies, gloves, scarves, hand-spun yarn and soap (also available online).

Explore the Loop Head area

The farm sits close to the Wild Atlantic Way; nearby highlights include Loop Head Lighthouse, the Kilkee Cliffs, the Bridges of Ross and Kilkee's beach and farmers market.
