Farm Stays in Emsworth (2023)

Just outside the market town of Emsworth, Hampshire, and close to the cities of Portsmouth and Chichester, The Old Dairy Farm has B&B rooms at their farmhouse surrounded by a 16-acre farm that, though now no longer a dairy farm, keeps a number of goats, horses, alpacas, and free-range hens. THE ACCOMMODATION: The comfortable, clean rooms at the farmhouse are a mixture of doubles and twins and come with private bathroom, digital TV, and WiFi. They match the standards of a quality boutique B&B and the friendly owners serve a very good breakfast in the morning. THE LOCATION: The Old Dairy Farm is just outside the little town of Emsworth on the shores of Chichester Harbour in the southeast of Hampshire. Emsworth is a historic market town with plenty of shops, cafes, pubs, and restaurants. It is also a popular place for sailing and can be a lively town, especially in summer. There are two tidal millponds on either side of the town that have an abundance of wildlife, as well as the Brook Meadow conservation area to the east of the River Ems. The farm is also just over ten miles from the 12th century cathedral city of Chichester in West Sussex. Chichester has an abundance of history, going back as far as the Romans with it becoming particularly important during the Anglo-Saxon era. Around equidistance is the harbour city of Portsmouth, while the journey from London should take around an hour during normal traffic conditions. There are also regular trains from London, and from Portsmouth and Brighton, to Emsworth station. Note: Only children over the age of 5 are allowed.
