Nothing bad to say! 1. Friendly owners but not intrusive. 2. Goat feeding with Mark the Farmer was great and he has lots of patience with the kids. 3. Hotpot expensive but worth it. 4. Accommodation clean and just as expected. 5. Service was efficient when we arrived and departed. 6. Pizza oven was good fun and you got to... More

This was our first experience of 'camping' with our boys (5&3) and to think we very nearly opted for a Eurotent at a busy site in Cornwall - I'm so glad and relieved that we found this little piece of camping paradise instead. With a total of ten 'tents' it really does feel calm and relaxing even when everyone is... More

This isn't really camping! Tents have three separate rooms, are well equipped and made of dark canvas so kids sleep in. Owners friendly and welcoming. On top of this, the chance to milk the goats, collect eggs, feed the pigs, wander in the meadow, paddle in the river or hang out in the play barn, as well as an honesty... More

We have just returned home from our first featherdown farm experience (with kids aged 12 and 8), and enjoyed it so much we are already planning our return to this particular farm. I only wish we had come across these holidays years ago! The tents are exactly as you see on the website. They are spacious, comfortable (including the beds!),... More

We've just got back from an idyllic five day break and have had the best family holiday in years. Everything was delightful despite the weather. Great base for sightseeing and warm, kind hosts. A credit to featherdown farms!

We have just returned from the Featherdown Farm at Dolphinholme and cannot wait to go back. I do not normally write reviews, but having read the most recent post (April 2012) about this farm, I felt the need to add a different opinion that was equally current. I took 3 children (7,4 and 22 mths) and they all had an... More

We booked this based on the other reviews on this site and it was simply horrid. We have Featherdowned before, and this didn't compare at all favourably with the other two farms we have stayed on. The children couldn't go anywhere without adult supervision, as the eggs, the pigs, the play barn, the shop, all involved them crossing the car... More

I knew it would be camping or glamping but i didn't appreciate the warm glow and happiness i would get from staying at Dolphinholme Farm. The farm is primarily a goat farm, not being much of a goat lover i was a little dubious. However I have changed after spending many happy moments chatting to the 'girls' in the sheds,... More

A real excape from the rat race. Dolphinholme House Farm offers a totally idyllic place for a real family holiday. Suited to children of all ages it offers a unique experience of staying in a cross between a luxury tent and a wooden chalet. Powered only by a wood burning stove, an oil lantern and candles and no mobile or... More
