College Farm

Our 10th Featherdown Farm holiday. A wonderful, relaxing weekend. Lucy and her family were the perfect hosts. Our kids loved feeding the lambs, playing in the hay barn and on the trampoline. There is lots to see and do in the area.

Our holiday was brilliant, so Enjoyable, the amenities were practical and we had everything we needed from kitchen equipment to towels and bedding. There was time for making memories with our children, having the chickens and sheep on the farm was an added bonus as we got to see wonder on our children’s faces interacting with them. The children were allowed to play in the hay barn and go in with the animals which gave them a new sense of freedom and responsibility. We were given plenty of candles and wood for our fire we didn’t need to request any more. My husband went fishing on the farm which was an extra plus for us as a family. We were recommended a local farm shop and it was lovely we would recommend this.We used the farm as a base in the mornings we would head out and come back early afternoon then we enjoyed the facilities of the farm in the afternoon and early evening.Lucy’s hospitality was second to none, we couldn’t have asked for a better host for our first feather down holiday. From the courtesy call she made two days before to the time we spent there and the farewell chat we had before our departure.We would come back to college farm without a doubt and we have already started recommending to our friends and family. Thank you Lucy-Five stars!

We have just got back from 3 nights here and it was amazing. Great safari tents with tranquil setting. The kids loved roaming the farm and playing on the trampoline and hay barn, making friends. The hosts were very friendly and helpful. Great location too for visiting Norfolk. We highly recommend College Farm and will be coming back soon.

Lucy is a fabulous host, nothing is too much trouble. We returned for the third time. The kids love roaming and playing in the trampoline and in the hay barn with the friends they make on the farm. It is relaxing, beautiful and “off the grid” . See you next year!

Excellent. Lucy was the perfect host - attentive, friendly, efficient and helpful. College Farm was an excellent base for exploring this lovely area which has so much to offer. On site our children loved the communal trampoline and straw barn which was a great place to make friends. We really enjoyed the peaceful setting. A great Featherdown experience. Thank you!

Lucy is a wonderful host and clearly cares passionately about her farm as well as her guests and providing an excellent Featherdown experience. The farm is in an ideal spot for day trips of all sorts and is laid out in such a way that allows a perfect balance of privacy but the chance to be social if you wish. Our children aged 11 and 8 had an amazing time playing football, in the play barn and trampolining, so much so that we didn’t see them other than to eat and sleep.

College Farm is excellent! The hosts are brilliant - Lucy was so friendly and helpful. There's loads for the kids to do independently on the site so we could relax and they made some great friends. Shower block was clean and worked well and the addition of large fridges up at the farm made food storage better than we have had at other sites. As well as the chickens and sheep at the farm, the little walk down to the river was teeming with wildlife and we saw cows, horses, swans, geese, pheasant, deer, rabbits and tons of butterflies! The local area is perfect for exploring with various coastal spots a short drive away and we also visited Bewilderwood and RSPB Minsmere. Would definitely recommend and hope to return ourselves in the future

An incredible time spent on the farm. Our kids made friends, ran around free and did turn a little feral by the end of it! We haven’t stopped talking about it since we left. Lucy is wonderful. The tent and all facilities immaculate. So much thought has gone into making it the perfect getaway. Perfect for kids and adults of all ages!

This was our third visit to College Farm and a much needed break for both adults and children from our own four walls, screens and devices! The children were outside with newly made friends all weekend. Lucy and Marcus are lovely hosts and the weekend was just what we all needed.

An idyllic escape, a place to make magical childhood memories. Our children loved having the freedom to roam, and we felt safe letting them. The park, hay barn and animals were loved by our children. Lucy was a fantastic host, we loved our week at College Farm.

College farm was excellent. The children enjoyed the animals, hay barn and play area. The tents are well equipped and beds are comfortable. The hosts were lovey and couldn’t be more helpful. Would love to come back and hopefully have better weather.

This is our second visit to College Farm. My daughter was four when we visited previously and cried when she left. She is now thirteen and cried again as she didn’t want to leave! The farm is beautiful with welcoming hosts. We came at a challenging time but felt safe and relaxed and our hosts explained changes before we arrived so that we could be prepared. The site is in a good position to visit many areas along the coast and we had a busy but relaxing week! Thank you!
