"We wouldn’t go anywhere else for our alpaca fibre processing! Emma and Chris provide a first class service and an amazing end product. We always receive photos and videos of the different stages of processing and also fantastic advice on the best way to use our fibre. Delivery is swift after payment too. Couldn’t recommend enough!"
"Alice loved the alpacas today Thank you for our visit"
"Had a lovely experience at the Mill, Emma is wonderful and so knowledgeable about the alpacas, it was a real treat to feed them. Great value for the time spent and enjoyed learning about how alpaca fibre is spun in the Mill. Would highly recommend!"
"Used this mill to process my alpaca fibre to 4 ply and rovings. really delighted with the quality of the end product. They aren't the cheapest but they certainly produce a great end product."
"A friend and I paid our first visit to here today. Easy to park and access shop. We were welcomed warmly by the owner. She was very friendly and happy to explain all about the mill process, different grades of fleece etc. So after a long chat (to put the world to rights) and discussing workshops we both purchased some yarn and promised to return. Well worth a visit!!"
