| Hundreds of farms offer accommodation for visitors, and they can provide not just a great deal of family fun and adventure, but also a peaceful rural retreat for couples that want to get away from it all.
Whether you choose a farm offering award-winning B&B or one with its own self-catering - perhaps a barn conversion or garden cottage - it's an ideal way to experience the countryside. Many farms are close to cycle routes or walking trails, and virtually all have wonderful country views.
For children, a farm is a particularly magical place. with new sights, sounds, smells and sensations, it provides a great introduction to animals and country life. However, many visitors have discovered how calming and de-stressing staying on a farm can be, especially during spring and autumn. Add in log fires, good home cooking and a way of life determined purely by the rhythm of the seasons, and it's easy to see just how relaxing a farm holiday can be. |
