Many people who book a visit to the British Isles set their sights on the major destinations in England or Ireland. Wales, a small country on the southwest shore of Great Britain, is often overlooked though it has equally beautiful natural wonders and just as many things to do. Wales has major cities like Cardiff, as well as beautiful countryside dotted with charming towns and castle ruins. One of the best ways to experience the rustic beauty of the country is by booking a farm stay. You’ll be out in nature, on a real working farm, without being required to do any of the chores. Read on for our pick of the top farm stays in Wales, UK.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on May 27, 2025.

Inside, it is a bright and airy space with enough room for three guests. There is a fully equipped kitchen and a TV for entertainment in the evenings. The cottage is set on a working farm, but you’ll have complete privacy from the main house. There’s also ample parking space on site.
