Alpacas

Afternoon tea with our Alpacas

Welcome to Bewl Rookery

The perfect blend of Alpacas and Afternoon Tea
and floral mix of dried and pressed flowers for sale at local markets

Bewl Rookery Alpacas is situated on the border of East Sussex and Kent in the beautiful landscape called the High Weald.

Our smallholding of 15 friendly alpacas, 5 hens and lots of flowers is nestled in 10 acres of open farmland with wonderful views from our vantage point 500ft above sea level,

Our first six alpacas arrived here in the Spring of 2019 and we now have 15. They are such gentle, inquisitive, friendly and calm animals that we enjoy sharing with our visitors who come for Afternoon Tea during the summer season and for private Alpaca Adoption visits.

Alpacas originate from South America and the high altiplano but have adapted well to the UK and are ideal for grazing.  They have soft feet that minimize damage to pasture and selectively graze only the top of grass leaving the root system intact. Plus they keep us entertained with their charming personalities and graceful demeanour.

With a sustainable approach to our smallholding the alpaca manure is used on our flowers and everything we grow. The hens eggs are used in our sandwiches and cakes. We grow our own cucumber, courgettes and tomatoes used for Afternoon Tea sandwiches or tarts. Our flowers decorate our tables and fresh or dried bouquets can be bought from our shop during the summer season and from local markets in the winter, as can products made from our alpacas fleece. We create our own compost from all the flower fields and leftovers and the hens also enjoy any cucumber and salad leftovers.

It was a wonderful experience. I thought the best part was the Alpacas until I sat down for the tea and it was incredible.”
