Holiday Cottage Near Diddly Squat Farm

If you're planning a visit to Diddly Squat Farm Shop, Glebe Cottage is one of the closer places to stay with your own front door, a private garden, and space to properly unwind afterwards — rather than a day-trip drive from further afield.

Getting to Diddly Squat Farm Shop

The farm shop is on the Chadlington road (5–12 Chipping Norton Rd, Chadlington, Chipping Norton OX7 3PE), around 7 miles from Bledington — roughly a 20-minute drive through the villages of Churchill and Chadlington. No booking is required; you simply turn up.

As of early 2026, the shop has generally been open Tuesday to Sunday, 9:30am–5:30pm, closed Mondays, with both a main and overflow car park (these close at 5pm). Given how much attention the farm gets, opening days, hours and car park arrangements do change from time to time, so it's always worth checking the official Diddly Squat Farm Shop site before you set off.

Tips from guests who've made the trip

• Weekday mornings are noticeably quieter than weekends — worth an early start if you'd rather avoid queues.
• Dogs are welcome in the outdoor areas, so it's an easy stop if you're travelling with one (see our dog friendly guide).
• The car parks close at 5pm — don't leave it too late in the day if you're driving.

The Farmers Dog

Also featured in Clarkson's Farm, The Farmers Dog pub is nearby too, at the Asthall Barrow Roundabout near Burford — easily combined with a farm shop visit if you're making a day of it.

Make a Day of It

Daylesford Organic — a rather different, more polished take on the farm shop idea — is just up the road too, and Chipping Norton, Stow-on-the-Wold and Burford are all within easy reach if you want to turn the trip into a full day out. See our full local guide for more on the wider area.

Hours and access details change from time to time — this page gives a good general steer, but do check the farm shop's own site before travelling.
