Can I charge electrical items?

​

We recommend you take a little digital detox while staying with us, but we know this isn't always possible, so we do provide a few battery packs for charging phones in the communal Hideoutencourage you to bring charging packs. 

​​​

Can I bring a dog/pet? 

​​

As we are a working farm, dogs and other pets are not permitted to stay, or visit. 

​​

What animals do you have? 

​

We have alpacas, bees, our farm cat Kathleen and farm dog Mona. We will have scheduled animal feeding times and you will get to meet the baby alpacas (cria)! We recommend that you keep a safe distance from the bee hives and please do not enter the paddocks without a member of staff. 

​​

What time is check in / check out? 

​

Check in is between 4pm and 6pm and check out is by 11am.

 

This must be strictly adhered to, so that we have enough time for cleaning and changeovers and to also to ensure that we are able to have some family time - feed our own little ones and get them to bed etc. For late check-ins after 6pm we will need to charge a fee of £50.

​

Can I have friends visit me for the day while I stay? 


Unless you have booked the site for exclusive use, we are afraid not. We have chosen to keep the site small and family friendly. However, we'd love you to encourage your friends to book and come along with you though. 

​​

Will you look after my children? 

​​

Nice try :) whilst we absolutely love to spend time with families visiting, we are not a registered childcare service. We love spending time with all the families who visit, but you'll need to ensure they are well supervised, especially around water (stream and ponds). 

​​​

Do you have a first aid kit? 

​​

Yes we have a first aid kit in the Hideout but please bring any medicine that you may need. 

 

What can I do during my stay? 
 

We encourage you to relax and rewild yourself whilst staying with us - we have a table tenis table, plenty of spots for quiet reading, board games, books, hammocks by the stream, plenty of spots for den building and wildlife watching. Each day you can also meet the animals at feeding time. Alpaca walking is an extra cost this year and bookable upon enquiry.  â€‹â€‹â€‹
