On the farm

  • Small East Yorkshire glamping site on a family farm in Octon
  • Bridlington and Filey beaches 20 minutes' drive away
  • Smart and cosy ensuite log cabins with kitchenette and deck area
Seaside days, scenic country walks… and a splendid dose of luxury – it’s all here at Old Octon Farm Lodges, a small East Yorkshire glamping site that’s part of a working farm in the village of Octon, 20 minutes from the coast at Bridlington and Filey. The surroundings here are all pretty pastures and open skies, so it’s just the location for a relaxing time spent soaking up the fresh air, sunset watching and stargazing. There are several pubs and restaurants in local villages, with more places to eat in Driffield (15 minutes’ drive), which also has a supermarket for supplies to take back to base. Whatever you source in the shops can go into meals prepped inside or outside your lodge – each of the smartly kitted-out lodges has a kitchenette (with microwave, fridge, kettle, toaster, cutlery and crockery provided) and a dining area, plus a barbecue area outside for alfresco eating. The table and chairs on the deck at the front of the lodge are in just the right spot for breakfast in the morning sun too… Everything here has been designed with a luxurious experience in mind – from the rainfall shower in the bathroom to the sparkling wine and chocolates provided as welcome gifts. Each lodge also has a Freesat TV and wifi, plus central heating, double glazing and insulation to keep everything cosy. These are family-friendly lodges, and dogs are also welcome as long as they are added to your booking in advance and not left in your lodge on their own at any time.

Shepherd's View lodge (no pets)

Liked: What a hidden gem! We booked for a short getaway and ended up extending our stay. The lodges have everything you could need to settle in and relax in luxury and comfort. We got the best sleep we have had in a long time and spent the days resting and watching the sheep. The owners are absolutely lovely and couldn’t do enough to ensure a good stay.

We have definitely found our happy place and will be back later this year and beyond.

Disliked: Not a single complaint.

Buttercup lodge

Liked: Everything! Great hosts who were welcoming and helpful. Visited with our 2.5 year old and a baby. Our little one loved saying hello to the sheep on a morning and enjoyed sitting on the tractors. Lodge was clean and bed was very comfy! Great little touches such as complimentary hamper/ toy baskets and toddler cutlery and plate. It was lovely to eat outside on a night… so many stars!! Thanks for such a wonderful stay - I am sure we will be visiting again!

Disliked: Nothing at all! We would have stayed longer if we could have!

Local attractions

Here in the Yorkshire Wolds there’s plenty of lovely scenery to explore, whether you head out on foot, get on your bike, or take a seat on the Yorkshire Wolds Railway (15 minutes' drive). You may also like to have a stroll around a couple of local stately homes at Sledmere House (10 minutes), which has a farm park and adventure playground, or Burton Agnes Hall (15 minutes), known for its art collection and craft shops. And of course you’ll want to get over to the coast as well – perhaps for days on the beach in Filey or Bridlington (both 20 minutes), a bit of birdwatching at RSPB Bempton Cliffs (25 minutes) or a trip to the gorgeous Robin Hood’s Bay (55 minutes). The beach and open-air theatre make Scarborough (half an hour) worth a visit too. If you’ve got kids to entertain, a tour of Bondville Model Village (20 minutes) should be on the schedule. If, however, it’s an adults-only trip, might you perhaps be interested in a tour and tasting at Spirit of Yorkshire Distillery (15 minutes)?
