Feather Down College Farm

We had such a wonderful stay at Feather Down College Farm. From the moment we arrived, Lucy made us feel so welcome, taking the time to show us around the farm and making sure we had everything we needed.

Our boys absolutely loved the playground and hay barn, but the highlight was definitely the lambs. Being able to pop over whenever we wanted to spend time with them was so special, and feeding them every morning quickly became everyone’s favourite part of the day.

The canvas hideaway was brilliant. Although there were other tents nearby, it still felt private and secluded, giving us plenty of space to relax while feeling completely safe with three young children. The facilities were excellent too, and having an ensuite toilet and shower felt like a real luxury while still enjoying the glamping experience.

The farm is also in a fantastic location, with beautiful beaches and the river just a short drive away, making it easy to explore the local area.

We made some fantastic family memories here. None of us wanted to leave, and we’re already talking about coming back. Thank you, Lucy, for such a lovely stay!

We had the most wonderful and restful couple of days at College Farm. Don't hesitate - just book! Our canvas cottage had everything we needed, we slept incredibly well in the comfortable beds and enjoyed the ensuite hot shower. The farm is absolutely abundant with wildlife; I couldn't possibly list everything we saw, highlights included hares, deer, cattle, lambs, oystercatchers, owls and even a marsh harrier! The local farm shops are excellent and there are several supermarkets just a short drive away. It's also an ideal base for exploring the many attractions in the surrounding area. Lucy was fantastic, a real font of knowledge and always happy to help. Our little one thoroughly enjoyed spending time with the lambs, playing in the play barn and going on buggy rides with Lucy. We made some wonderful family memories and will definitely be back!

This venue is so wonderful and peaceful. Lucy is an incredible host; she's always ready to help, very knowledgeable and also great fun to chat to. Our sturdy canvas and wood 'tent' was perfect. It's brilliantly designed with warm, comfy beds and a spacious bathroom and shower. The hot shower was very welcome, and Lucy was on hand to fix it quickly when it had a problem. There's play areas for the kids, including a barn full of hay bales. And the feeding of the sheep in the morning is a lovely routine they can all attend. Lucy gave the kids many rides in her golf buggy which they all loved. It's in a dark skies areas, so when we had a cloud-free night the view of the stars was amazing. There's an excellent barn shop a few minutes drive away. Make sure you bring battery packs with plugs (which can be charged in the sockets in the communal fridge area). I'm on ID mobile (Three) and could get reasonable data connection, and my friends could get a bit of a connection too, surprisingly given how rural it is. Handy when some urgent issues came up at home.... Highly recommended!

Stayed here for 2 nights for a team building trip / offsite and had so much fun. The stay was clean and beds were very comfortable. |It was a great opportunity to disconnect from tech and connect with colleagues! (there were plug sockets if needed at the top of the farm and great signal and reception all over the farm).||Would really recommend this unique experience.

What a great experience! This was a team away day with work colleagues and I will be booking to come with my family next. A truly beautiful location where you can appreciate the silence around you. Although it was glamping it had so many luxuries I did not expect like a hot shower. The space inside was great and the sleeping arrangements are very well thought out. I know my children would love the bed in the cupboard! There is a pizza oven near the children's play area with full instructions on how to use it so even a novice can do it. There are plenty of candles available though I would still recommend bringing a torch. Lots of lovely walks in the surrounding area. I would highly recommend it for all occasions whether it is work, family or bringing friends together to drink by the fire.
