Discover your perfect break with Feather Down farms
Discover your perfect break with Feather Down farms
On a Feather Down farm stay, you are always surrounded by open landscapes and seas of rolling green fields. Undeniably, one of the best ways of connecting with nature is by exploring it, but why not get even more intimate and hands-on. Here, you are immersed in the working farm experience. With sheep, pigs, cows and goats in surrounding fields and meadows, there are often opportunities to meet, greet and feed these friendly creatures throughout your stay.
We were the first in the UK to offer tents with wood burners, flushing loos and proper beds, which started the 'glamping' trend around 20 years ago. Our cottages under canvas are a home from home, with the luxuries of private showers, cosy bedding and outdoor cookers, while being close to the great outdoors.
