Farm stays under canvas

A wonderful holiday for us and the kids alike! Beautifully kept site in a picturesque valley with amazing views - and the sunny April weather was a great bonus! Our hosts Martin and Joby were very welcoming and helpful and the home-cooked meals available in the farm shop for nights when you fancied a night off cooking were very tasty. The kids loved going in with the chickens to check for eggs, and the alpaca walk was lots of fun too. Leonard the tent-visiting farm cat was hilarious and we welcomed him in on several occasions. Very sociable site with lots of communal green space so the kids could enjoy some (socially distanced) ball games with other families and a central fire pit which was lovely on the cold evenings. Temperatures got down to zero overnight but the wood burner kept the tent lovely and warm, and we brought thermal PJs and extra blankets to keep us toasty once in bed. Loads of amazing day trips and things to do along the beautiful Jurassic Coast nearby made for a really memorable holiday - highly recommended!

All we can say is..... Absolutely Fantastic! From beginning to end our family had an amazing time! The thrills tent was such a perfect touch to our holiday! The working farm we stayed on was amazing, yes it's noisy and obviously a bit smelly but it all came together in a truly memorable experience and we can wait to try other Featherdown Farms!

We had an absolutely lovely weekend at College Farm. We felt really well looked after by our hosts, and felt fully relaxed in such a beautiful setting. The children had a fantastic time, playing in the hay bales, collecting eggs from the chickens, feeding the lambs and grooming the horses, and it was such a welcome change to be able to let them go off and play safely and happily by themselves. A thoroughly enjoyable holiday!
