Glamping Packing List

What To Pack When You're Glamping on Our Farm

Remember to pack:

• Boots, wellies are a good idea and essential if you want to join our farm tour.
• Swimsuit, bikini or trunks for the hot tubs unless you want raised eyebrows!
• Crocs or flipflops are useful for getting out of the hot tub, so are dressing gowns.
• Waterproofs if there's rain forecast!  Waterproof trousers or suits are useful for small children if they want to roll around in the playground!
• Warm clothes, coats  and hats if you're glamping in the spring or autumn.  
• Bedsocks - not sexy but definitely sensible for a good sleep if you're glamping! 
• Antihistamine if you get hayfever
• Torches or head torches, it's dark here at night and the safari tent fields are unlit
• Remember your phone charger, we have sockets in all our accommodation
• An electrical adapter if you're coming from overseas
• Ear plugs if you don't want to hear the chickens in the morning.  We also have them in our shop for 50p a pair.  Kilve Lodge, Bossington and Porlock are near a neighbouring poultry farm, you can hear birds in the morning and the local dogs also bark when the fox comes by.
• Bath towels, unless you've hired ours (we provide bathmats, hand towels and tea towels)

Please don't bring:

• Hair dryers or straighteners, these kinds of items will trip tent electrics as we don't have enough power for them. 
• Heaters, fans or any similar electrical items, if you're glamping here these are too high voltage for our sockets
• Too much fresh food, there isn't lots of storage space in the safari tents and the fridges are small.
• Lots of plastic bottles, they're not good for the environment, our water is pure and tested for drinking. 
• Non biodegradable decorations
• Speakers, we don't allow amplified music, if you want to listen to music please wear headphones,  the safari tents have canvas walls so sound travels here! 
• Large bottles of milk - the fridges are not very big and you won't get those big supermarket bottles in the fridge door.  We always have milk available in our shop, we sell non dairy milks too. 
• A drone, our animals get super stressed, pregnant ewes can abort plus it upsets our neighbours or anyone else staying here too if they have a sense they're being watched or filmed. thank you.   No kites either please as we have electric power cables in some of our fields. 

We'd Rather You Didn't Bring

• Supermarket meat or battery eggs -  we realise supermarket sausages and eggs from caged hens are slightly cheaper than ours but we really hope you'll try our meat, which is from high welfare animals, living outside either on our farm or a neighbours.  Eating our meat when you stay here is a lot more sustainable.  We hope you'll try it, especially after our farm tour when you'll see how well looked after and happy our animals are.
