Shalimar Alpacas Farm — Local services in Town of Warwick

My fiancé and I visited this “private home” after being referred by a friendly local store owner who provided us with a guide to Warwick that references Shalimar Alpaca farm and store as a public activity.....“Visit our farm and store” the advertisement reads. Upon arrival there were a slew of confusing signs, enter around the corner says one sign, no trespassing says another, the gate saying closed was open. So confusing. Anyhow, we pull up politely and slowly look around for a person so we can pay before looking at the farm. We are abruptly “greeted” by a rude older, disheveled run down women who was wearing a shalimar alpaca shirt. Who snaps and snarls “by appointment only”... my oh my are we sorry we even pulled up. Maybe your advertisement should specify by appointment only. After getting our heads bitten off by Medusa we were literally escorted out of the gate as if we were thiefs... despite our arrival in a nice car and appropriate attire. I never write mean reviews but we left feeling so awful. Thanks a lot old lady. Do not visit this awful site. Terrible...

However we had such a good time and Patricia was so knowledgeable we believe any time of the year is well worth the visit. All of the Alpaca products in their shop are also well made and reasonably priced. We would...

My family and I had the best time at Shalimar! We went with our 2 kids. The owner is a lovely woman, and has the most beautiful alpaca. The farm is at her personal home so you must call to make an appointment before going. The fee is very reasonable and worth every dollar. We had almost an hour of up close time with her 50-60 alpaca, and some baby alpaca that were the most adorable creatures ever. We learned so much about them, and even got to hold a baby. We also bought some really cool things in her shop. I highly recommend this experience. We will...
