- While the farm park is generally accessible, the alpaca walking route can be challenging for wheelchairs; inquire about modified wheelchair walks if needed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the opening hours and pricing for the farm park?
The farm park is open daily from 10 am to 4 pm. 'GREEN' days (weekends and school holidays) have an entry fee of £5, offering shows and animal handling. 'ORANGE' days are donation-based, allowing visitors to feed and pet animals without an entry fee. Check their Facebook page or call for the most up-to-date information.
Can I bring my dog to Woolley Animals?
Unfortunately, dogs are not permitted on the farm site due to the stress they can cause to the animals, particularly pregnant females. Visitors are asked to leave their dogs at home. Assistance dogs require advance contact.
How long does the alpaca walking experience last?
The alpaca walking experience itself is about an hour on a mile-long route. The entire trekking experience, including a safety briefing and goat feeding, takes approximately 90 minutes. Booking is essential.
What food options are available?
The on-site cafe offers homemade cakes, specialty coffee, and hot food such as steak burgers, paninis, toasties, pizzas, hot dogs, and chips. Limited options for coeliac, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets are usually available. Visitors are also welcome to bring their own picnics.
Is the farm park suitable for visitors with mobility issues?
The farm park itself has accessible toilets and mostly flat access from the car park. However, the alpaca walking route involves muddy, slippery terrain, bridges, and woodland, which can be difficult for wheelchairs. Modified wheelchair-only walks may be available on specific days; please call to inquire.
