Silverstream Alpaca Farmstay & Tour

Best Alpaca farmstay! Alpacas are so curious and come right up! Kids were so delighted! Kit & Cheryl are friendly! Fully recommend. House is cosy and has all the amenities. Great stay !

Great stay at this farmstay! My family enjoyed ourselves staying on the lovely property, the warm hospitality, and also the alpaca farm tour that we were given. Will definitely recommend.

Lovely unit, well appointed with everything you could possibly need apart from a coffee plunger or percolator for the grounded coffee provided for your breakfast. Continental breakfast was OK. Farm was lovely and the alpacas so cute but aloof. Would recommend to other travellers.

We did the farm tour and it was amazing. Kit was a wonderful guide. He was charismatic informative and really knew how to make this a great experience. Alpacas were beautiful and I’m looking forward to coming back again Will definitely be booking again and highly recommend

Our family (2A + 2C) really enjoyed our stay here. We had the farm tour the afternoon we checked in which was great, we all enjoyed feeding the alpacas. Kit and Cheryl were lovely, making us feel very welcome. Great location only just out of Christchurch and 5 mins from Kaiapoi which has heaps of food options. A great experience and way to end our trip and would definitely recommend

Spent one night here whist travelling south, what a great place to stay. Family run business great accommodation stay included a tour to feed the alpaca’s which was amazing Nothing to much trouble for the staff Definitely would recommend a visit if you are in the area

Alpaca feeding Saw a baby alpaca born.

We had a lot of fun with the alpacas and we had an amazing experience staying here. Owners are very friendly and we had a very informative tour with the alpacas. The accomodation is very spacious and comfortable with great wifi, strong shower and comfortable beddings. Breakfast provided to us was more than adequate with breads, cereal, juice, milk, eggs and fruits. If you are looking to experience a farmstay in Christchurch, this is definitely a great option.

We arrived from Wellington late at about 11pm. The owner's kit was super friendly and waiting for us at his door step and helping us with our luggage. As he was staying the house beside our accommodation. Kit was super lovely and warm. He has help us to warm up the room before we arrived. Hence when we reach there the whole house was super warm. The sky outside the house was super clear and you are able to do some star gazing. Kit give us a whole house orientation and what to do and where is what thing. As breakfast was provided, he has also place the breakfast in the fridge so that he don't need to disturb us too early in the morning. Breakfast consists of bread, cereals, apples, orange, eggs, juices, milk and yogurts. Tea and coffee was also available. There is a extra foldable bed in the living room for the 5 person. Kit was so thoughtful and brought a extra heater to place it by the side apart from the aircon heater on the wall. As the weather was super cold over the night that the grass outside the house was frozen. The next day Kit came to find us at 10am to do a farm tour and let us touch, feed and take photo of his lovely alpacas in the farm. They are super pretty and lovely. He even show us how he create the alpacas fur to lovely scaf and sweaters. The price was reasonable and he did not do any hard selling. As he mention that he is just here to pass time rather than for business. He told us the history behind how he purchase the farm and how he get into this business. It was lovely to heard from him. He also introduced to us the stream behind his house and was also so nice of him to let us stay beyond the checkout time to go back to Christchurch airport to get our rental cars. It was really lovely to meet kit and to stay in his farm house. Will highly recommend anyone to drop by and stay with him if you are nearby Christchurch and to see him and his lovely alpacas. Will miss him and the alpacas.
