      Brilliant Mothers Day present from my son. Delicious cream tea with homemade scones followed by a short walk to see the alpacas. Being a knitter I loved my visit to the shop and my son treated me to some gorgeous wool. The staff are extremely helpful and knowledgeable and took the time to help me choose my gifts. The animals from the book were on display.

      Wellies on, group ready, off we go. Walking round the fields in anticipation of being up close and personal to those gorgeous animals was great. Gentle walk, complete with loads of information on alpacas, and we arrived at the weaner field. Through the gate and these 'nosy' animals came right up to us to see what we were! More info on colours and types of wool added to the delight. Then on to the adults - who were also curious to see us. Great views, great photos and even more info. Back to the café for a warm scone complete with jam and cream and then a beginners crochet lesson. Not to be forgotten and will certainly go again. Recommend highly.

      My sister and I had never crocheted before but that was not a problem as the ladies teaching us were very patient, went through each stage loop by loop, made it an very enjoyable experience. The venue for learning is very comfortable, light and a great atmosphere with all the "Woolley animals" and the cream tea was the perfect treat to complete the morning. Just to say that we missed the Alpaca walk as we arrived late, but all the others in the group enjoyed meeting them.This was a thoroughly enjoyable Friday morning.

      We attended a taster course which we really enjoyed, getting up close to the alpacas and hearing all about them through a microphone. We were late because of the traffic and the staff did their utmost not to let it spoil our visit, delaying the farm tour and extending the finishing time for us. It was a lovely relaxed atmosphere improved by a really well done cream tea and a short but helpful crochet lesson. The cafe is open to all-you don't have to go on a course. They run family activities during school holidays. We unfortunately didn't buy any lovely soft alpaca wool as it was very expensive!

      What a lovely few hours we had. The staff were very friendly and accommodating.The walk was about 50 minutes with some small inclines here and there but being with the alpacas was a joy. They really are beautiful and our guide was knowledgeable about them.Cream tea was OK. Scones were delicious but the tea was cold. The ladies who demonstrated the crochet were patient and very helpful. Lovely café - can't wait to take my friends there.A thoroughly enjoyable experience (except for the tea).

      I've been to Toft Alpaca twice now, once on a full day workshop where we had a lovely day of knitting, lunch and a walk around the farm. The second time we had a half day of crochet with some lovely tea and cake. The instructors have always been really helpful and patient and you really couldn't ask for a better day out (provided you like crafts!!).

      The afternoon spent walking around the farm and getting up close to the weaner alpacas was great, a brilliant afternoon with a lovely cream tea and crochet taster to finish off. Would recommend and would definitely go again :)

      No razzamatazz. No bells and whistles. Just simple, casual enjoyment. A gentle wander around the paddocks looking at the alpacas (and the amazing view across Draycote Water. A look around the shop to chat with the very knowledgeable staff about wool and products and then an excellent coffee (and home-made cake if you're up to it)while you relax in the comfy chairs. Well worth the effort to get there and experience something just a little bit different.

      We met here for coffee with family and loved it. Edward's menagerie are brilliant and I am already crocheting my second animal. On my first visit I signed up to a course which was really informative and with a large pot of tea and cake was a great afternoon. The restaurant offers a sensibility priced menu you can enjoy after a muddy walk around the farm. Will be visiting again and joining the Thursday knit and knatter soon .

      The trek through the wintry mud was soon forgotten once in the field amongst inquisitive young alpacas. Our guide, Caroline was knowledgeable and keen to answer questions. The alpacas were also keen to know more about us - a great close up experience of gentle and beautiful animals. On our return to the studio, a delicious cream tea awaited us. Once refreshed, we were taught how to crochet small animals. Memories of crochet from my childhood came flooding back. The shop was inspirational, full of high quality, natural alpaca and wool yarns as well as garments and alpaca gifts. Friendly, well informed staff who clearly enjoyed their work. Definitely a place to visit again!
