About Farm Stays

Farm stays let city slickers trade traffic noise for rooster crows and the satisfaction of collecting still-warm eggs. Accommodations range from rustic cottages to stylish lofts in converted barns, often with panoramic views of grazing livestock or vineyards.

Guests can pitch in with feeding animals or fruit picking—or simply relax with a book as tractors rumble past. The real highlight? Meals crafted from hyper-local produce, like cheese from the dairy or honey from on-site hives. Farm stays prove that getting dirt under your nails can be the ultimate luxury.

Pros and Cons of Farm Stays

Farm stays provide a unique opportunity for travellers to experience rural life up close. A lot of farm stays provide affordable accommodation options, allowing visitors to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the countryside without breaking the bank.

Additionally, the peaceful and picturesque surroundings can provide a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.

One potential disadvantage of farm stays is the limited access to amenities and services compared to urban areas. Travellers should be prepared for a more rustic experience, with potentially fewer dining and entertainment options nearby. However, for those seeking a quiet retreat or a chance to connect with nature, this may not be a significant drawback.

Overall, farm stays offer a unique and affordable way to experience the beauty of the countryside, with the potential trade-off of limited amenities.
