Overview

Campwell Farm and Woods brings visitors a sense of simplicity, nature, and adventure. The farm hopes to inspire people to adopt new mindsets and behaviours to improve the world. Campwell is ideal for families seeking fun and relaxation while immersing themselves outdoors.

Activities

Join a Farmcraft session led by Becky, Camp owner Tim’s sister, for an exciting and engaging experience in the farm and woods. Children and families can enjoy group activities such as creating nature-inspired headdresses, building dens, crafting bunting, and mastering the art of making a perfect campfire.

In addition, guests can participate in the thrilling ancient skill of sheep herding or a time trial obstacle course. For those seeking an adrenaline rush, kayaking, raft-building, and code-breaking challenges are available in Bath. Pre-booking is required for all activities, which come at an additional charge. Sheep herding, in particular, is a highly sought-after activity that promises laughter, challenge, and new learnings.

Try a rejuvenating yoga session in the serene Roundhouse, a stunning and naturally built space that provides relief from the summer heat and warmth during cooler days. The Hatha-style yoga class includes flowing sequences, moments of stillness, core strength building, and breathwork.

Try a foraging walk to explore the area’s natural wonders. The guide will show you how to identify, find, and use wild plants for recipes you can recreate at home and share with others.
