Vauxhall Meriva alternator strong burning smell

Car: Vauxhall Meriva
Model Year: 2003

Categories: Leaks & Noises

I have a very strong burning smell coming from my alternator, is it safe to drive it seven miles to the garage to get fixed, or does it need to be towed there due to risk of fire? Please advise me, thank you.
