Step back in time and reconnect with nature during your stay at Great Farm Glamping, where the countryside offers an abundance of wild treasures waiting to be discovered. Foraging, defined as the time-honoured practice of gathering wild food, transforms a simple countryside walk into an exciting treasure hunt that brings families together while creating lasting memories.

In our digital age, foraging offers a refreshing escape from screens and supermarket aisles. This ancient survival skill, once essential for our ancestors, has experienced a remarkable renaissance as people seek authentic connections with nature. At Great Farm, foraging becomes an educational adventure that engages visitors of all ages, from curious toddlers playing nature’s version of “I spy” to grandparents sharing wisdom about traditional countryside living.

The beauty of foraging lies in its accessibility, but requires no special equipment; just curiosity and respect for the environment. Every discovery feels like finding hidden treasure, and the satisfaction of preparing a meal with ingredients you’ve gathered creates a profound connection to the land and your food.

The pristine countryside surrounding our glamping site serves as nature’s pantry, rich with seasonal delicacies. During your stay, you’re welcome to explore and harvest the wild offerings that flourish around our camps. Autumn brings glossy blackberries hanging heavy on thorny bushes, while spring reveals wild garlic leaves carpeting woodland floors. Elderberries cluster in dark purple bunches, mushrooms emerge after rainfall and heritage apple trees drop their fruit for the taking. Nettle patches, often overlooked, provide nutrient-rich leaves perfect for soups and teas, while hawthorn berries add tartness to preserves. This natural diversity ensures that every season offers unique foraging opportunities, making return visits to Great Farm exciting new adventures.

At Great Farm Glamping, foraging transforms accommodation into experience, creating stories that last long after your visit ends. Book your stay and discover why gathering wild food remains one of life’s most satisfying activities
