  • Off-grid pitches with outdoor showers, a field kitchen and pizza oven
Grab your space at Great Cotmarsh Farm – a gorgeous and peaceful North Wiltshire base with views to the Marlborough Downs, and an all-round lovely spot for outdoor adventures on a small farm managed on ecological lines to help nature flourish. As well as outdoor showers, facilities at this off-grid site include a shared field kitchen and pizza oven – or you can try your hand at proper outdoor cooking on the campfire. If you need some inspiration for the barbecue, delicious pasture-fed lamb and beef is available to buy from the farm. When you visit, say ‘hello’ to the native-breed livestock in the surrounding fields, and feel free to have a wander around the meadows on pathways mown through the grass. If you are after the kind of holiday where you can have fun outdoors, eat tasty food and rediscover your connection to nature, then Great Cotmarsh Farm is the place for you. And there’s lots to see as well: Wiltshire has tons of historic homes and gardens to tour, and when you need some sightseeing inspiration, the site owners can provide advice, local maps and guidebooks. If you want to keep your stay super-local and reduce your carbon footprint, footpaths lead from the pitches into neighbouring meadows and up onto the Marlborough Downs, including access to the White Horse Trail at Board Town (35 minutes’ walk).
