You'll find unusual animals at the 12-acre Moorparks Farm in Devon, which is home to alpacas and rare-breed Greyface Dartmoor and Swiss Valais sheep.

It's a special place to stay - even the Indian Runner ducks have a beautifully designed ‘Waddle on Inn' duck house.
The couple of two-bedroom cottages, converted from barns, have been done up with similar care and have light, modern interiors and private gardens. Between Dartmoor and Exmoor, the cottages have the best of Devonshire's countryside right on the doorstep, and are just a short drive from the North Devon coast. Three nights for four costs from £380 in May (The usual roster of farmyard animals is joined by reindeer and emu at Nettlecombe Farm near the south coast of the Isle of Wight. As well as animal feeding and petting, there are three coarse-fishing lakes where the biggest catch to date is a 20 lb carp hooked by a 12-year-old. Set in rolling countryside near Whitwell, the farm has a series of six circular walks, including the Downs, woodland and coast, and even a hidden waterfall.
Back at base, there are nine dog-friendly cottages with simple modern decor.
When you order groceries in advance, be sure to include the local Mermaid Gin or Isle of Wight wine. Seven nights in April costs from £565 for four (There's a real treat for whisky-lovers at Newhall Mains on the Black Isle Peninsula in the Highlands. On the farm they grow barley which guests can see being turned into Scotland's national drink at the local distilleries of Balblair and Dalmore.

The converted granary cottage on the 1,650-acre organic estate of Bainbridge Farms near Morpeth in Northumberland
The five cottages around a courtyard have been crafted from 18th Century farm buildings. But there's nothing antiquated about the Tesla charging points, underfloor heating and elegant interiors that are more boutique hotel than farmhouse B&B. 
The farm even has its own airfield if you want to charter a private plane to get there in style. Three-bedroom Red Gates is dog-friendly, has a wood-burning stove in a large kitchen diner, and views of the farm's Jacob sheep whose wool is used to spin the cottage rugs. From £290 a night in May for six (For somewhere a bit more rustic, check out the trio of corrugated iron and wood bothies at Newton of Begshill in Aberdeenshire. One was adapted from an old chicken shed, another is based on a mobile milking parlour and a third is a romantic bolthole for two with a bed on its mezzanine.

Colourfully decorated with vintage finds, they have wood-fired hot tubs and a slipper bath by the window for star-spotting. Cook on the wood-burning range or in the pizza oven.
Three nights in May for four costs from £450. Dogs are welcome (Go one step closer to nature and stay in one of five safari tents at Kittisford Barton near Taunton in Somerset. 
While there is no electricity, you can expect comfort under canvas here - pine beds, a proper bathroom with shower and heating courtesy of a wood-burning stove.

During the day, collect eggs from the hens, meet the goats and explore more than 200 acres of trails, woodlands and fields. Then return for an evening toasting marshmallows on the fire pit or take up the option of the wood-fired hot tub.
Four nights for six in May costs from £401. Dogs are welcome (If glamping isn't your thing but you take sustainability seriously, check out the trio of wooden Dorset Eco Retreats near the village of Ansty, with ground-source heat pumps, turf roofs and wood-burning stoves.
