Our guests in their own words

Harris
College Farm

We had the best time. There was so much to do in the area that we didn’t get to see. Life on the farm was easy. The kids made lovely friendships, the hay bales were a definite highlight and Farmer Lucy was a delight. We will miss everything about our holiday on the farm and its surroundings.

Miss Bassett
Treganhoe Farm

Hosts were friendly, warm, helpful and so lovely. The farm was absolutely beautiful and clean and tidy, we didn't have children, but lots of things for children to see and do. The tent was FABULOUS! How can we call it camping when we had a luxurious bed and duvet, private hot shower, everything you need to cook and make meals, the honesty shop was a brilliant bonus and we love the 'frozen hotties' to keep the fridge cool, brilliant idea!! We had an afternoon/evening of horrible rain, but we were warm, dry and very toastie. Would recommend treganhoe 1000% it's FABULOUS and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Mrs Brown
Moor Farm

Fantastic stay at Moor Farm. The kids loved all the farm animals & the tent was magical. A lovely chance to slow down & get back to basics.

Mrs Dean
Fountain Violet Farm

Absolutely amazing place to stay. Brought the family together as a unit. Such a wholesome experience

Mr Hutchinson
Fountain Violet Farm

An excellent location and a passenger stay, though the tent was showing its age, with broken wond blinds and worn/ freyed/ snapped ropes.

Miss Pullinger
East Shilvinghampton Farm

What a great experience! Our girls (3,6 yrs) cried when we had to leave. We loved the friendliness of the farm, the petting of the goats, the family vibes and that all the kids played happily together from sunrise to sunset. The tent was great, very well equipped. Lovely hot showers!

Mrs Hewitt

Fun, homely, peaceful

Mrs Andrews

Mr Mullaney

Amazing weekend, the kids were catered for in every aspect meaning Mum and Dad could take a rest. Hosts were extremely friendly and helpful

Mrs Prescott
Sunninglye Farm

Fantastic, it's our second visit and we will be back next year as well!

Brockwell
Sunninglye Farm

This was our second trip to Sunninglye. We spent most of our days either down at the lake on the boats and making rafts or walking around the farm enjoying watching all the lambs. The tent was fully equipped with comfortable beds and outside seating with incredible views. We had a bbq two nights and enjoyed the pizza making on the other. We shall definitely be back, thank you Gill for another fun and relaxing stay.

Mrs Limbert

The perfect break

Mr Nairn
Heydon Grove Farm

A lovely stay at Heydon Grove farm. We enjoyed being so close to the chickens and calves and foraging for the abundance of blackberries and the fresh eggs.

Miss grief
Heydon Grove Farm

Truly lovely place and stay

Mrs McSweeney
Manor Farm

We absolutely LOVED it! It was the holiday we needed and even during rainy weather we all had an amazing time. It was a wonderful place to switch off. Our lovely host Fiona really made the experience perfect for us- super friendly, knowledgable, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and help us with our questions. She’s a real gem!

Lemieux
Mount Pleasant Farm

We had the mostly lovely time staying on Anna and Mike's farm. The tent was clean, well equipped and magical at night when it was candle-lit. We really enjoyed cooking on the outside BBQ on the first night and on the next night we had freshly made pizzas in the pizza oven. Anna also brought us freshly baked bread in the morning. We had a nice tour of the farm while there and enjoyed seeing the beautiful horses and their sweet dogs running around. We also enjoyed watching the sunset. The camp store was well equipped for anything we needed while there. We'd love to come back.

Mrs Mulliner
