Feather Down Farms - Gwel Teg Farm

Overview - Feather Down Farms - Gwel Teg Farm

At Gwel Teg Farm, Loretta and Mark specialise in dairy farming with over 400 cows on site (including British Blues and Holsteins). They also have sheep who lamb in the spring and grow barley on the farm too. While visiting you will be able to learn about milk production and if you are visiting in the spring you will get a chance to bottle feed the lambs. There is lots of space for kids to explore, but don’t worry – you can still keep an eye on them from your veranda. 

There is a hot tub that can be rented to add a bit of luxury if you fancy it. The farm shop operates on an honesty basis and is stocked with basics and some local favourites. A maximum of 2 well-behaved dogs are permitted per hideaway (you are required to keep your dog on a leash while on the campsite). This farm is the perfect base for exploring Cornwall, Looe and its beautiful beaches are a short drive away. Close to the Eden Project which houses the largest rainforest in captivity. It features a zip wire and holds concerts in the summer too. 

Gwel Teg Farm is part of the Feather Down Family, a collection of canvas hideaways on beautiful private farms throughout the UK and abroad – visiting a farm means you are helping the rural and local economy, while enjoying nature and learning where your food comes from. The Feather Down Farms concept began in 2006 and was originally developed by the late Luite Moraal, a veteran of Disney and Center Parcs. Since opening the first farm in the South Downs Hampshire, Feather Down has expanded to over 75 farms in the UK, Holland, France and Germany.  

Feather Down Farms is proud to support British farmers with their selected farms.
