A collection of holiday cottages, barn conversions, lodges, and glamping retreats in England where guests can experience the countryside from the rural authenticity of a working farm. From dramatic coastlines, rolling hills, and remote uplands to national parks, historic market towns, quintessentially English villages, castles, and cathedrals, the country offers visitors an incredible range of things to see and do.
For those looking for a summer holiday by the sea, a farm stay in Devon or Cornwall, is the ideal choice. Spend your days exploring beautiful beaches, picturesque fishing villages, and scenic coastal paths before returning to the peace and quiet of a farm setting.
Elsewhere, England’s national parks have all the space you need to get away from it all and reconnect with nature. Discover the lakes and fells of the Lake District, the wooded valleys and limestone dales of the Peak District, or the heather moorland and and ancient woodlands of the North York Moors. Many farm stays are situated in the heart of these iconic landscapes giving visitors a unique perspective of rural life.
Beyond, the well known hotspots, England’s quieter counties offer their own appeal. Explore Lincolnshire’s wide, open fenlands and arable fields, Hereford’s orchards, cider heritage, and medieval villages, or Suffolk’s water meadows and unspoilt coastline.
From the honey-coloured stone villages of the Cotswolds to the wild, untamed beauty of Northumberland, a holiday on a farm is a wonderful way to experience England’s diverse landscapes, local food, and agricultural heritage.
Whether you’re planning a family holiday or a romantic weekend break, wanting to bring the dog along, or looking forward to plenty of walking and cycling, staying on a farm is a great way to experience the best of the English countryside, while offering the chance to meet friendly animals and get hands-on in day-to-day farm life.
