About Us

Based in the British Lake District in Cumbria,

England, 'Alpacas of The Lakes' provides a

complete service for the new and existing alpaca

owner throughout the United Kingdom..

'Alpacas of The Lakes' is owned and managed by

Ann Young,

She has been involved in the management and

care of Alpacas since 1989.

Some of the young female Alpacas grazing

Ann has over 30 years experience breeding and training animals. Varying from the re-education of ex-race

horses, through to breeding Merino Sheep and Angora Goats. It was therefore a natural progression, having

gained experience with fine fibred animals, to include Alpaca in the farms itinerary.

Animal Welfare is paramount in the management of all animals residing at 'Alpacas of The Lakes'.

'Visiting Females' and 'Alpacas at Livery' enjoy the same routine as any of the other animals on the farm.

Visitors are always welcome, whether browsing or buying!
