ABOUT US


A few words about us


We are husband and wife team, Louis & Katharine. We have always loved animals and the natural world. Our events take place in the grounds of our beautiful home which we share with Louis’ parents, 3 cats, 6 alpacas, chickens and an abundance of wildlife. We both have spiritual beliefs and a love of the alternative, we want our venue to be as welcoming as possible for all who visit.
The idea for our venue was born after the tragic loss of Katharine's sister Verity in 2015. We know that being around animals and in nature improves mental health. We completed a "care farming" course in 2018 allowing us to use our knowledge to provide a therapeutic environment. We offer wellbeing workshops to those looking to improve their mental wellbeing. Louis is a qualified reflexologist and Katharine has a Counselling certificate and a qualification in mindfulness. We both believe passionately in supporting physical and mental health in a holistic way.
Animal welfare is paramount to our beliefs. Our alpacas are our much loved pets and as they live on site, they are relaxed as this is their home. They are free to express their natural behaviours and we do not expect them to take part in anything they are not comfortable with. Alpacas are naturally shy animals so sometimes they may not interact fully with guests but most times they love being hand fed. We are fully licenced by Breckland council to operate the alpaca experiences Licence No AWL0082.
We passionately believe in looking after the planet we live in. We run our business as sustainably as possible using locally sourced natural/organic products and recycled products where available. Our grounds are maintained without the use of pesticides or chemicals. Our electricity is supplied by a green energy company and we are great composters of anything we can!
