Company information

Feeling without purpose after the last of his children leaves home, Joe the owner of K2alpacas has packed in his high-flying banking career to start tending alpacas — a more obscure cousin of the llama — in Wicklow. His ultimate goal is a sort of alpaca Disneyland — an agri-tourism business with nature trails, shops and luxury accommodation.

Property information

K2 Cottages are nestled in the foothills of the Wicklow mountains. They are central to all the main attractions in Co Wicklow. K2 Cottages are in the country yet only 50 minutes from Dublin City Centre. K2 Cottages Farmhouse and Farmyard are nestled in a hollow on the farm. K2 cottages overlook the farmyard. The cottages replaced seven 7x original outbuildings and take their names from the building they replaced. We’ve used the granite, stones and slates from the original buildings in the new cottages. These generously sized cottages are very comfortable and are an ideal location to set up base to explore all that Wicklow has to offer.

Neighbourhood information

Central to all sight seeing areas in County Wicklow. This alpaca farm is surrounded by beautiful countryside. 20minute drive to Glendalough and it historical walks. K2 Cottages are on an alpaca farm: K2Alpacas is the home to 90 alpacas. The 90 acre farm has multiple walks onsite and views across the Wicklow Mountains and down to the sea. There is an abundance of wildlife on the farm and the farm has planted 100 native Irish trees and bushes to attract further wildlife. Birdsong abounds.
