Nestled in the heart of rural Worcestershire, Oaks Barn Farm delivers not only a quality farm stay experience but also outstanding green credentials. Working alongside Climate Essentials, we have been able to benchmark our business achievements against our business inputs and related emissions with an impressive set of data.
As we advance 2023 will provide more data on our off-grid capability following the installation of a 10kw battery and Sunny Boy Home Manager Technology.
There is a lot of hard work involved in being green, Since we began in 2006 we set out to provide accommodation that does not cost the earth, these values have remained intrinsic to our business growth. Over the years we have installed solar panels and a district biomass heating system, We harvest rainwater for livestock and watering. Our laundry is managed on site reducing transportation costs as well as putting us completely in charge of quality.
We remain innovative in our approach, using smart technologies to reduce power consumption, and labour costs, and to enable off-site management. Much of the ambient lighting is solar-powered, and all lighting has moved over to LED.
Our site comprises 3 self catering properties + the main farm house, so getting our carbon footprint down to the equivalent of powering 1 home for a year is quite an achievement while being able to accommodate 20 people on site. for more information on booking a farm stay with us visit
