Working Farm Holidays

[Sexonlegs]

Hello :)

We are considering a working farm holiday this summer, and wondered if anyone can point me in the direction of a decent place and/or website please!

TIA

well...as it happens...

by coincidence I've discovered the Animal Planet prog Farm Life this week, filmed on Warborne Farm in the New Forest - it was made in 2008, screened in monthly episodes (ie each episode covered 1 month), fascinating programme & it looks like a proper farm.

Anyway I googled the place today & this summer they are doing holiday cottages for the first time - possibly because the downturn in the economy meant they had to close the farm organic shop

obv they're new to this game but going by the open days etc shown on the prog they are very hospitable & friendly & fun - they have 3 kids of their own, aged 10, 9 & 6 - it would be an experience!

Thanks Ponders. It looks lovely. Only thing is, it's only about 30 mins from where we live; was kind of looking further afield- Devon or Cornwall or Wales.

Anyone else?

oh it is? you'd be popping home every day from there then

what a shame!
