- Marscha310 contributionsAlpaca heaven!We had a lovely time with the alpacas! And goats, chickens and dog. Marian was so lovely and passionate about the alpacas and very good with the kids. My daughter was a bit scared but she was very patient with her. We fed, cuddled and walked the alpacas and stayed for about 2 hours. We had so much fun we will definitely be back!Visited April 2023Travelled with familyWritten 20 May 2023

Marian is so passionate about each and every animal within Wee Eden. We fed goats and chickens. And met the alpacas, went for a lovely walk with them and Marian told us all about each one and their history. My daughter even got some kisses from Percy!. She has not stopped talking about our time here and cannot wait to come back. In addition to this, Marian captured our day perfectly with amazing photos. We are very excited to come back and would highly recommend visiting, great with your kids. Would even be a great date for couples.

- Vicki M1 contributionA must visitWow I don't no where to start with this review to say we had ana amazing time would be an understatement. As a family of 6 wev done alot thro the hols and wer struggling to find new things to do with kids. I'd definitely recommend a visit to wee Eden the experience was brilliant and walking with the alpacas was something I've never done. Had the best time. Marian herself I take my hat off to what she does at wee Eden needs praise as the animals are so clearly loved and looked after she a lovely woman and made us feel comfortable so much so one of our daughters wasn't feeling the best Marian took her away into her home and made sure she was ok with wee cup of tea.

A wee surprise find... delightful experience walking the pygmy goats and the alpacas during a private visit. Marion could not have been more welcoming or accommodating.

We had such a wonderful experience at Wee Eden. Marian is such an amazing person and so enthusiastic and passionate about every aspect of life on the farm with her animals. They are so well looked after and you can see that Marian just adores every one of them. She is fantastic with younger children and so patient. My sister throughly enjoyed her birthday treat and my nieces had a brilliant afternoon. The one to one contact with the animals makes it feel so special and the cute factor is off the scale. From the adorable family of goats, the gorgeous and very calm alpacas who now have 2 beautiful baby alpacas in the family to the super friendly family dog Lola and the chickens. We all had such a great time and we will highly recommend Wee Eden to our friends and family.

It was a real treat getting so close up and personal with these beautiful Alpacas.
And there are lots of cute little goats and chickens running around the place, doing the assault course with the goats was so funny, they're adorable and it sets you up for doing the bigger course later leading your chosen Alpaca around their course, hint: bribing them with food works a treat.
A great way to spend a morning learning about Alpacas in person and the host could not have been friendlier.
Five out of Five from me and don't forget to talk with Lola the cute puppy while you're there.
