Countryfile host to leave his farm as children want different careers
- Countryfile presenter Adam Henson is preparing to leave his Cotswold farm when his tenancy runs out, marking the “end of an era”.
- Henson's father, Joe, started the 650-hectare Cotswolds Farm Park estate in 1971.
- Henson and his wife Charlie plan to relocate to a nearby bungalow in Winchcombe, as their children have pursued careers outside of farming.
- Henson noted his children's lack of interest in farming, with his daughter working as an events organiser in Perth and his son as a financial advisor in Leeds.
- Despite the move, Henson hopes to continue enjoying the countryside and keep a few sheep and dogs.
