FAMILY FOCUSSED ACTIVITES

There is an amazing variety of wildlife & nature at our glamp site. There are bunnies to spot and if you're really quiet you might see a red squirrel or a weasel or even a water vole down at the stream. And, of course, we have varied bug life from butterflies to bees to grasshoppers and many different beetles. We have bug finding packs with nets, magnifying glasses and books to identify and learn more about our wildlife.

Guests enjoy our woodland play area with swings, dens and mud kitchen. There's a trail to explore and plenty of outdoor fun.
STREAM PLAY
The farm has a beautiful stream which we love. You can clamber in for some paddling and exploring. You can use our nets to catch and identify all manner of stream life. Or you can just sit in the peace and quiet and listen to the babbling of the water.
FEEDING TIME
We keep chickens, ducks & guinea pigs, and children are welcome to join in the daily feeding duties, and help collect some freshly laid eggs
ADULT FOCUSSED ACTIVITES
WALK FROM YOUR TENT
You can walk directly from Sibbecks Farm into some of the most stunning countryside on the island. Just a short walk up the bridlepath that runs through the farm takes you onto St Catherine's Down with some interesting historical sites to explore and breath taking views out to sea
RELAX & UNWIND
Our glamp site is the perfect spot to take time away from your busy life and simply relax. Whether that's enjoying a coffee on the tent veranda admiring the view, or gently swaying in a hammock amongst the trees, its amazing how therapeutic time at our rural location can be.
WILDLIFE SPOTTING
A key attraction of our glamp site is the abundance of wildlife. We have all sorts of birds (such as kestrels, buzzards, green woodpeckers) visiting the farm and even have resident barn owls who are often out and about at dusk hunting over the glamping meadow. See barn owl footage here. You also have a good chance of seeing a red squirrel or a badger which frequently come right up to the grounds surrounding the tents which gives you the opportunity to watch from the comfort of your veranda.
