Fans have supported Jeremy Clarkson after a major announcement regarding his Cotswolds farm in Oxfordshire.

The former Top Gear host has owned Diddly Squat Farm in Chadlington since 2008, with the location the focus of the hit Prime Video show, Clarkson's Farm.

Mr Clarkson and his partner, Lisa Hogan, opened Diddly Squat Farm Shop in 2020, which has proved popular with tourists in the years following.

It was announced this week that a five-year rule has been broken at the Chadlington spot, with the shop usually closing for several months throughout winter.

Yet heading into 2026, Mr Clarkson's shop will not close, and instead it will remain open to customers throughout January and February next year due to "high demand".

The major announcement on the shop's Instagram page said: "Due to high demand, we’ve decided to keep the farm shop open in January and February."

Fans were quick to support the decision with a wave of positive comments made in response to Diddly Squat Farm Shop's big announcement.

"This is great news," commented a follower of the page.

Another added: "That is great news, because I really wanna come and visit again, I'm not gonna get any chance in December unfortunately."

A third person then said: "That's great news as I want to bring my daughter for her birthday in February."

"Well done, for all the farmers that provide and your staff," said another follower of the page.

Amongst the positivity, another fan wrote: "You all work so hard, you deserve every success."
