Town Farm Campsite

4.7 (289 reviews)

Our working farm has been run by the Leach family since the 1930s. We opened a small campsite in Spring '09. Each year since we’ve made small improvements but we’re careful to hold onto our roots as a rural, non-commercial, family campsite! We pride ourselves on our friendly staff, pristine facilities and breath-taking surroundings.

There is a wealth of attractions nearby to entertain in wet and dry weather:

>Whipsnade Safari Park - 10 min drive.

Superb campsite in a beautiful spot!

Fenton, Louise - 02/06/2023

This campsite is only 10 miles from our house, but it is such a lovely place we will definitely return again. The other campers were friendly, and the facilities are excellent - toilet & showers were clean & modern, and the play areas and games room were also well used. The quiet site meant that while we missed having our own quiet music, we didn’t have to listen to anybody else’s noisy music! there’s plenty of space for the children to run & play, even in the main field. The staff were available, helpful & friendly throughout our stay. We didn’t use the on-site catering, but would definitely do so if we were camping without our kitchen - it looked delicious. The location is superb, we enjoyed an 8km circular wall up to the beacon, & then to the excellent pub in Ivinghoe for games & lunch before returning to camp. Overall, an incredible stay and we’re already planning our return.

Scenic site with great walks to pubs

Summers, Andrew - 02/06/2023

An excellent stay at Town Farm. The site was spacious with clean facilities, friendly staff and great views. Its location allowed kid friendly walks to the 2 local villages (with pubs!) and up to the ridge for scenic views across the Chilterns. We would definitely return.

Self study course

Box, James - 30/05/2023

5

Great location, amazing walks after a day of classroom course work. Great facilities and very cheerful staff, I needed to be off at 11 am but my exams didn’t finish till 15.00 and Charlie was happy for me to store my caravan at a storage spot free of charge. Could not be happier with the whole site.
