Hello,
I will introduce myself, I am not a farmer. The closest I ever came was being a younger farmer being pulled around by lambs and calves at the Kent county show (Homewood school farm 1995). I do have a natural interest in my surrounding landscape and the animals within it and how I fit in. For a long time I have dreamt of owning a small patch of land and running a business from it. This has grown into the 'Glamping/camping' business plan, that will house a small animal holding (chickens, goats, duck etc).
As I am not from a farming family/family with land my question to you all out there is....
Do land owners ever think about diversifying into camping?
Would a farmer let out a field that has a water supply to a budding Glamping business?
Has anyone or known anyone that has branched out into Glamping?
Any thoughts are very grateful
