farmstays
Agricultural vacation rentals
Farmstays are vacations spent on working farms, where guests participate in agricultural activities or simply experience rural life.
The accommodation might be a guest room in the farmhouse or a separate cottage on the property.
Farmstays appeal to families seeking educational experiences for children and to urbanites wanting a break from city life: We booked a farmstay where the kids could feed chickens and collect eggs.
