About College Farm

Peacefully set in the North Cove Nature Reserve by the River Waveney, this family friendly farm is well positioned close to the edge of the Norfolk Broads and in reach of the area's beautiful beaches and coastal towns, including Southwold and Walberswick. Your chic lodge will include a kitchen area with running water, comfortable furnishings, a cool chest and a cosy wood stove for both heating and cooking. For those wanting a little something extra, opt for one of the ensuite lodges to ensure you have an extra slice of privacy. On the farm are friendly lambs, keen to meet you, along with the herd of cattle grazing on the marshes, and a set of chickens clucking around the farm. Unfortunately dogs are not allowed, sorry.

College Farm is open from 26/04 to 20/10.


Facilities and amenities

Site facilities include shared showers for those not in en-suite accommodation, with access for disabled people too. The honesty shop offers meat and eggs produced on the farm or sourced from a neighbour, honey, local apple juice and ice cream. There is also a pizza oven for guests and a play area with trampoline and slide.

The Wheatacre White Lion pub is just a five minute drive away. A 15 minute drive away in Worlingham you'll find a couple of supermarkets.

A note from the site themselves...

Lucy and Marcus will welcome you to their family farm in Norfolk. Be sure to follow their signed walk as it is a great way to ease you into your holiday and introduce you to their farm, before meeting the cattle in the marshes and hand-feeding the lambs.

Our mission at Feather Down farms is to help you reconnect to nature and to each other and encourage you to relax and unwind, away from everyday life.
