Rural caravan stays near Maldon

Welcome to Old Farm, a charming working sheep farm that has been proudly owned by the French family for five generations. Located in the picturesque Essex countryside, our site offers a tranquil retreat with modern amenities and stunning views.

Facilities and Accommodations

Our caravan site features excellent facilities, including clean and well-maintained toilets and showers. Each of our five pitches—named Gwen, Megan, Bonnie, Roxie, and Gem after our beloved Border Collies—comes equipped with Electric Hook-Up (EHU) points. We strive to keep the site open year-round, though availability may vary due to the British weather.

Natural Beauty and Wildlife

Set in a serene meadow, our site provides panoramic views of the open countryside where you can enjoy sightings and sounds of local wildlife, including our resident sheep. For those interested in exotic wildlife, Colchester Zoo is just a short drive away. Alternatively, visit the petting farm at White Elm Garden Centre in Bicknacre for a hands-on animal experience.
