We couldn't recommend this stay more highly. Amanda is a wonderful host checking in to make sure you have all you need and providing recommendations of places to visit.

The most perfectly idyllic and magical property. The most glamorous and luxurious hut I have ever seen. Bijou but space so ergonomically used that it seemed vast.

The Alpaca Retreat is absolutely idyllic. Set in a beautiful rural location, this place is the perfect, peaceful getaway. From the warm-welcome on arrival, to the beautiful shepherd's hut itself, plus all the amenities on offer, this place cannot be faulted. The 3 beautiful alpacas were a joy to watch and to feed.

I came for a solo holiday (away from DIY and two children 4 and 1), but brought the dog along for company.

Great property in a great location. The alpacas were a lovely touch and very friendly We had a wonderful stay and look forward to returning
Paula - Dec 2023
This is the perfect spot to enjoy a relaxing and peaceful getaway. A soak in the hot tub at night watching the stars is made even better owing to the lack of light pollution. The bed area is snug and great for cuddling up and watching a film, of which there is plenty of choice. Bicester is a short drive away should you need to stock up on essentialRead more supplies. The Alpacas are quiet and inquisitive and you may have them literally eating out of your hand by the time you leave! Hide

The property was perfect for our week away and had everything we could need. We enjoyed making use of the hot tub and the fire pit! Such a lovely location being only 15 mins from Bicester and about 35/40 mins from Oxford. Great week away!

Tracy - Jul 2023
This was our first holiday in 7 years and it was perfect in every way. Amanda is an amazing host and nothing is too much trouble. The alpacas were such fun to watch and we loved feeding them too. They were not at all phased by our lively 3 year old Staffie who enjoyed her holiday immensely The garden is totally enclosed and if she cant escape, you know it is secure. The hot tub is amazing and so relaxing and you have everything you need for a lovely BBQ. Defo recommend, truly stunning
Victoria - Jun 2023
An amazing place. The host Amanda was fantastic and full of great recommendations, we can't thank her enough. Beautiful and relaxing surrounded by three friendly alpacas.
Chris - Jun 2023
Amazing location, very relaxing and brilliant for the dogs as completely enclosed. The alpacas are wonderfully laid back. Beautiful shepherds hut, with lovely spec and nice to sit out on the decking. Amanda was lovely and couldnt do enough. Would definitely recommend and would go back.
Stephanie - Apr 2023
We stayed 4 nights in April. Our cabin had absolutely everything we could have needed & more. It was very cosy comfortable & clean. We enjoyed the fire pit, outdoor bbq, hot tub & log burner. It was lovely waking up to the sound of the birds and the alpacas outside. Our dog enjoyed it also & got along really well with the alpacas. We would highly r ecommend a visit to this lovely retreat. It was lovely watching the stars from bed also. Amanda couldnt do more as a hostess. Thank you =)
Barry - Apr 2023
Stayed at the Alpaca Retreat for four days and had the most amazing time. The property was immaculate and nothing was too much trouble for Amanda the owner. Great to use as a base for exploring the beautiful areas nearby or just chilling out and recharging your batteries. This is a special place and I would recommend the experience to anyone. Cant wait to go back and do it all again.
Gemma - Apr 2023
Really lovely stay, would highly recommend! Perfect for us as dog friendly and very quiet, thank you!
Andy - Mar 2023
We absolutely loved the Alpaca Retreat, the location was brilliant and had such a relaxing time. The alpacas themselves were in their own little world and eating constantly in the same filed as the shepherds hut. Amanda was there to meet us on arrival and was super helpful throughout our stay. There's some great walks around Ludgershall and also ne arby Brill is worth a visit too to see the wind mill and the fantastic views from the top of the hill. We'd highly recommend staying there.

Great relaxing cosy shepherds hut. Wonderful to see the Alpacas every morning. Host Amanda very helpful.

We absolutely loved our time here. The place itself is beautiful, so cute and cozy. It was clean and quite spacious for us to put away our bags. It was well equipped with everything you would need. There is lots of garden space and a lovely view, especially with the alpacas who are friendly and you can sit close to. The owners are lovely and very h elpful. The location is great, not far from Bicester Village, and Oxford. Theres a lovely pub within walking distance. We would love to stay again!
