Harriet Cowan, known for her hands-on role in Clarkson’s Farm and life often spent in wellies and muddy fields, recently revealed a different side of herself during a much-needed holiday. Away from the early mornings and demanding farm chores, the 25-year-old took time to unwind on a sunny Greek island, embracing moments of leisure and fun.
Sharing with her 624,000 Instagram followers, Harriet said, “Baled some grass then nipped to Corfu on the hottest week of the year.” In a striking contrast to her daily farm life, she was seen lounging poolside, enjoying stylish dinners with her partner, fellow farmer James Booth.
The couple made the most of their holiday, partaking in activities like tennis, jet skiing, and even parasailing on clear, beautiful days. Despite Harriet’s busy schedule—juggling farm duties, festivals, TV appearances, and writing—this marked her first trip away with James in years. As she told fans on TikTok, “So we timed our first holiday 8 years deep in-between lambing and calving.”

Harriet’s recent months have been packed. Alongside starring in the latest season of Clarkson’s Farm and attending FarmFest to engage with fans and fellow farmers, she has been busy preparing for the release of her new book, Life on the Farm, slated for later this year. Harriet describes the book as a deeply personal project that explores the true essence of farming life.
In her own words, she explains, “Inside, I share what the farming way of life truly means, the values I live by, and what a typical day on the farm really looks like. I also wanted to open up about the challenges and realities Britain’s farmers are facing today, and why buying local isn’t just a slogan – it’s a way of life.”
Carrying forward a family tradition passed down from grandparents to parents, Harriet emphasizes farming as more than just growing food; it’s about community, love, resilience, and daily dedication. Fans and followers eagerly await her book, ready to dive deeper into the authentic farm experience through her eyes.
