Town Farm Campsite

4.7 (282 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.

We're situated nearby to the Grand Union Canal with the towpath and boat trips available.

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

>Whipsnade Safari Park - 10 min drive.

>The Snow Centre in Hemel Hempstead.

>Harry Potter World is 40 mins drive or train.

>London Euston by train in 45 mins (From Tring Station).

great view and well organised

Fowler, Nicola - 21/04/2024

We stayed 1 night in a campervan. The facilites where one of the best. A well equipped Kitchen, clean toilet and shower facilities and a barn yard come games room. Chemical waste disposal included and bins. The field sits overlooking farmland and there are walking trails from the campsite. We walked the nearby Ashrisge estate which was also great but we will be back to explore further from the campsite!

A brief stopover to take part in a running event nearby. Self check in made arrival really straightforward. Very impressed with quality and cleanliness of loo and shower facilities.

Excellent site for DofE groups

Wright, Katie - 18/04/2024

5

We regularly use Town Farm for DofE expeditions. We have always found them helpful and responsive. The participants have access to water and portaloos in the DofE field but leaders can use the excellent main showers & loos. The DofE field is on a slope and runs down to the main road which does mean limited but fast traffic noise overnight. Leaders can also take vehicles and campervans on to the field

Very friendly owners & loved the Red Kites

Young, Steven - 10/04/2024

Very chatty, friendly, helpful & knowledgeable owners. Loved the Red Kites hovering over the whole area and certainly not an endangered species in this neck of the woods. As the site is located on a gently elevated position under Beacon Hill the views over the countryside are lovely. All the hard pitches were level as you would expect & close to all the facilities, toilets & shower block. I am self contained so did not use toilet or showers but upon looking in saw were very clean & well maintained. All in all we had a very pleasant 5 day stay……Nearly forgot to mention the excellent ‘Red Kite’ local brew at the Rose & Crown.

A really great campsite

Jones, Penny - 09/04/2024

A favourite campsite that I often return to. The facilities are always spotless; great pitch options for being amongst it, or out of the way. And a fantastic location with access to wonderful walks, and a couple of pubs.

Great spot

Priest, Linda - 08/04/2024

5

Great campsite, fantastic views, easy access to the Chilterns for walking, as well as path directly to local town with pub. The site is huge but there were only a few of us huddled around the electric hook ups! Play area for the kids. Facilities spotlessI was camping on my own with my dogs and we were very lazy not venturing far but there is lots to do in the surrounding area. I will definitely be booking again and will recommend to friends and family

A nice spot with good views but unfortunately this comes with being very exposed & a very windy spot too. I imagine its windy all year here too.
