Nith Valley Alpacas nestles within the private grounds of Capenoch estate in Dumfries and Galloway, Southwest Scotland.
Sitting at the base of the Keir Hills we have stunning views of the Lowther Hills to the North East and if you trek to the top of our hill you can see for miles and miles
The area is steeped in history boasting not only Kirkpatrick Macmillan,Inventor of the bicycle, who was born, lived and was buried here at Keir Mill but also the explorer Joseph Thomson (Thomson’s Gazelle)
Drumlanrig Country Estate is close by as is the pretty village of Thornhill with small independent shops and cafes.
