Child Friendly Glamping Holidays on a Working Farm
Family Glamping Holidays in the South West
We’re a very family-friendly glamping site, with plenty of space for children to burn off energy and enjoy the great outdoors. If you’re looking for a proper child-friendly farm holiday, you’re definitely in the right place! We have two children’s play areas on the farm, plus lots of open meadow space for running free along the mown paths, inventing games and generally being gloriously outdoors.
In the field with Kestrel, Hawk and Buzzard Lodges, you’ll find swings, two climbing frames, a couple of mini ride-on tractors, a tyre racetrack, plus table tennis in a covered area.
From May the glamping fields grow long and swishy, dotted with wildflowers. We mow winding paths through the meadows to the lodges, farm shop and play areas, making it feel a bit like a secret adventure trail. This is an eco conscious place, we don't use poison and we encourage biodiversity - we are trying our best to look after this land we are custodians of. So there are stinging nettles away from the mown paths, there are loads of wild flowers, butterflies, insects and it's perfect for anyone wanting to connect with nature. You'll also see all the trees we're growing, doing our bit to combat climate change - we ask that children don't swing on them please, but instead they are welcome to peer down the protective tubes and see the new life sprouting up.
If you have your own table tennis bats or badminton rackets, do bring them along. Ours are well-loved and battered and during busy periods in the glamping fields, have been known to vanish into the long grass when children are having a good time. We sell table tennis balls for 30p in the shop, along with new bats and badminton rackets if you want to buy new sets.
There’s also a second play area in the neighbouring glamping field with more swings, a tractor-wheel climbing frame, giant tractor-wheel hopscotch, and a climbing hill with a tunnel running through it. This play area sits to the side of the safari tents, so it isn’t directly in view of the lodges.
Middle Stone Farm is a wonderful place for a family holiday, and many of our families return year after year — which we think says it all.
