A simple and relaxing choice for family holidays and breaks yet one also offering certain luxury elements, Feather Down Farm Sunninglye is a family-run smallholding in Kent where kids can roam free and enjoy feeding the on-site animals and collecting eggs for breakfast and firewood for toasting marshmallows over a campfire. There are no TV, electricity or mod cons but the safari-style tents are – true to the spirit of 'glamping' – spacious, cosy and in some ways quite luxurious. Kids love the adventure of sleeping in the 'cupboard bed'.
