Adventurous outdoor life for the whole family in Southern Norway

A farm holiday stands for freedom, muddy wellies and learning where our food comes from. For families who love this kind of down-to-earth holiday, a trip to Kristiansand in Norway is a fantastic next step. Here you combine the charm of outdoor living with spectacular scenery. Instead of cows in Dutch fields, you’ll spot moose in vast forests and crabs in the sea. The principle remains the same: nature is the biggest and most beautiful playground there is. 

Anyone who loves camping on a farm and the outdoor life will feel right at home in the south of Italy. The region of Puglia is known for its agricultural character, but with a Mediterranean twist. Instead of cows in the fields, you’ll find endless landscapes of olive groves and vineyards. Staying at an agriturismo or a masseria (a historic farmhouse) is the perfect way to experience this rural lifestyle. Children can play freely in nature while you enjoy the peace, space and tranquillity. 

A farm holiday stands for freedom, playing in the mud and learning about nature. However, the experience of brugge.nl shows that many families like to combine this rural tranquillity with a cultural day trip. From experience, we know that during a FarmCamps holiday you’ll probably never want to leave the farmyard. But if you’re staying on a farm in the south, a visit to Bruges is literally just around the corner. It’s the perfect way for children to discover not only farm life, but also the rich history of a medieval city. 

Farm life sounds like a dream to many people, and for dogs it truly is one too. There are new scents to discover everywhere, plenty of space to run around, and all kinds of animals roaming about. Still, that first encounter with a cow, horse or chicken doesn’t always go smoothly. Out of sheer excitement or hunting instinct, your dog can get into serious trouble or scare the livestock badly. According to the experts at labradoodleinfo.nl, a calm and controlled introduction is therefore crucial for the safety of all animals on the farm.

A farm holiday is a wonderful way to truly get away together. Fresh air, animals up close, muddy boots and children fully immersed in outdoor life. With good preparation, your farm holiday becomes a relaxed and carefree adventure. 

The romantic image of a dog running freely around the farmyard is a dream for many people. On a farm, they have plenty of space to sniff around and burn off their energy. According to the enthusiasts of allesoverhondenrassen.nl, this setting is a true paradise for active animals. However, life among heavy tractors and livestock does require clear rules. 

A farm holiday is all about being outdoors, animals, space and freedom. Children can get messy, discover where food comes from and spend their days playing in nature. That’s exactly why so many families choose a farm holiday close to home, in the Netherlands or just across the border in Germany. But sometimes there’s a desire to combine that farm feeling with a little extra: culture, sunshine and a different setting. 

At FarmCamps, we believe in holidays close to home. Staying on a farm in the Netherlands or just across the border in Germany – that’s where it starts for us. But let’s be honest: sometimes you feel the urge to look a little further. And if you do decide to travel abroad, why not do it in a way that is just as pure and child-friendly as the farm holidays you already know?

Many families know the feeling all too well. A holiday that begins with stress before it even starts. Rushed mornings at the airport, crowds at busy holiday parks and constant stimuli telling you not to miss out on anything. The result is a holiday that costs more energy than it brings.

At FarmCamps things work very differently. No headless chickens, just farm life. And you can take that quite literally. You wake up to the sound of chickens scratching around the yard, not the noise of hundreds of other holidaymakers. Your day begins at your own pace and you feel the calm return instantly. Whether you choose to stay with a farmer or in a luxury tent, FarmCamps is all about relaxing. You do not have to do anything, but you may do everything. Finally a holiday that feels the way a holiday is meant to feel.
