Old Dairy Farm Glamping

The Old Dairy Farm is a peaceful and tranquil escape set in a very pretty spot in the village of Emsworth in Hampshire, a stone's throw from England’s south coast and a few miles from the West Sussex border. This boutique and very welcoming glamping site has luxurious and beautifully appointed yurts and lovely bed and breakfast accommodation.

The Nomadic yurts are seriously gorgeous and perfect for a luxury outdoor experience when you want to camp in the great outdoors but want a few home comforts too. The Yurts are tucked away in a secluded paddock with stunning views out across the South Downs and they are the perfect place to relax, unwind and get away from it all. And no banging in the tent pegs necessary. No cramming the car with pots and pans either; your private yurt has everything you could ever need (and possibly more), with smart hardwood flooring, a kingsized bed, ensuite bathroom, wood burner, pop-up kitchen with fridge, kettle, plug sockets, and all the crockery and pots needed to whip up a feast. If you are cooking in the open air, then charcoal barbeques and fire pits are also provided for each yurt. The private outside decking area is the ideal place for some al fresco dining. But it doesn’t stop there! The wonderful owners at the Old Dairy Farm have gone the extra mile to make this stay one to remember; you will find Egyptian cotton bedding and towels, toiletries, a welcome tray for that emergency cuppa when you arrive, and fairy lights and tea lights for evenings after the sun has gone down. And if you need shelter from the rain each yurt has a little gazebo. Dogs are very welcome (properly welcome, not just “allowed” - they are dog lovers here) and the farm is surrounded by Hollybank Woods, so there are plenty of walks to keep your four-legged pals happy.

Emsworth is a picturesque fishing village, sitting at the end of Chichester harbour and well worth a wander around, with its narrow streets, Georgian houses, antique shops and pretty waterfront. The harbour itself is very popular with windsurfers and water sports enthusiasts and the beautiful views make it a very popular place to visit. For walkers, there are some stunning nearby walking trails including the Kingley Vale trail, the Southbourne trail and the wildlife-packed Thorney Island walking trail. With the gorgeous beaches of Hayling Island and West Wittering not far away and the busy coastal city of Portsmouth only fifteen minutes drive, there are many things to explore in the near vicinity of The Old Dairy Farm, so make sure you leave plenty of time to discover all the beautiful beaches and countryside around and about.

And if the walking has left your legs tired and your muscles aching, get back to the farm and hire out the wood-fired hot tub for the afternoon, sit back, relax and enjoy the tranquil surroundings. And seeing as it’s all about luxury here, why not leave the shopping for a few days and have some delicious food delivered to your yurt; breakfast hampers, picnics and barbeque hampers are all available, as well as dinners and cakes. A truly luxurious break in an absolutely beautiful part of England.
