About
The holiday site at Cotswold Farm Park, Adam Henson's rare-breeds farm on the wold above Guiting Power, has five kinds of stay. Six self-catering lodges sleep four, five or six, with a kitchen, shower room, deck and a wood-fired hot tub as an upgrade. Two cabins, Ash and Oak, sleep four. Seven safari tents have their own kitchens and bathrooms: six Songbird tents in a row, each sleeping five, and the larger Sunflower tent, for seven and an infant, with a log burner and a hot tub.
For less, there are four glamping pods with beds, heating and power, using a heated shower block and communal kitchen (bring bedding or pay for a linen pack), and grass and part-hardstanding pitches for tents, caravans and motorhomes, up to six people a pitch. Prices start at £50 a night for a pod, £135 for a safari tent, £195 for a cabin and £200 for a lodge; pitches from £25.95. The farm's terms set a minimum of two nights for weekend bookings, three on bank holiday weekends and four at Easter. Free standing barbecues are allowed if raised off the grass, but not wood fires or fire pits, and there is a pay laundry by the washing-up area.
Every booking includes entry to the Farm Park for all guests through the stay, and the Ox Shed café, restaurant and shop are on site. Dogs are welcome, two at most (book them in for the pods), on a lead everywhere except the recreation field, but not in the Farm Park itself; a guided dog walk runs at 8.30am on the first Sunday of the month. Guiting Power and the circular walk to Naunton are a short drive away.
