Competition: Win a Feather Down Farm Days holiday! (closed 15 September 2014)

lsykes July 23, 2014

Feather Down Farm Days and Brittany Ferries bring you this month’s fab prize – an outdoorsy holiday in France.

There’s more than a hint of nostalgia about this month’s brilliant competition. The family glamping experts at Feather Down Farm Days are offering to whisk you and your family and friends to their luxury campsite on an idylllic farm in Brittany. And slow-travel fans Brittany Ferries will pop you across the Channel in style.

Great Breton

La Ferme de Penquelen Huella is an organic dairy farm situated between Lorient and Quimper, just 30km from the coast. It’s utterly rural there, surrounded by 600 acres of forest, criss-crossed with walking trails. On the farm itself there are cattle, pigs, sheep and chickens, and Feather Down’s luxury tents of course. Each is equipped with a separate double bedroom, a canopy bed and bunk beds. The style is wonderfully old fashioned – no WiFi or TV – just a wood-burning stove, oil lamps and candles, plus the great outdoors on your doorstep. www.featherdown.co.uk

Channel hopping

Why not make the journey part of the holiday? Brittany Ferries will float you across the Channel to your luxury camping stay. Their smart and modern cruise-ferries take you in as little as three hours – or overnight – to western France from Portsmouth, Poole and Plymouth, saving you a longer drive on the continent. www.brittanyferries.com

What you could win

  •  A three-night weekend or four-night midweek stay in a luxury tent at La Ferme de Penquelen Huella for up to six (maximum five adults).
  •  Return ferry crossings for one car and up to six people either daytime or overnight with a cabin (sleeps four, plus two reclining seats).
  •  Go in September or October this year, or 10th April–30th June 2015.

The Simple Things

Taking time to live well

We celebrate slowing down, enjoying what you have, making the most of where you live, enjoying the company of of friends and family, and feeding them well. We like to grow some of our own vegetables, visit local markets, rummage for vintage finds, and decorate our home with the plunder. We love being outdoors and enjoy the satisfaction that comes with a job well done.
