School groups

Most children have not had the opportunity to stay on a farm. Here at Home Farm, mornings generally start with a snack, followed by chores including cleaning out the animals, collecting eggs or gardening. The children arrive back for breakfast, content that they have already accomplished something useful, and happy to enjoy a home cooked breakfast using produce from the farm and garden.

Things to do

There is an adventure play area within sight of the accommodation, and the conservatory opens directly onto a large contained grassy garden, perfect for football or badminton games on warm evenings. Campfire evenings can be arranged in the field kitchen or orchard, depending on the weather and the time of year, It is also possible for local experts to come and talk to your group about falconry or deer.
