Town Farm Campsite

4.7 (272 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.

Town Farm borders the stunning National Trust Ashridge Estate with acres of hilltops and ancient woodland to explore.

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

We also have 2 great village pubs in walking distance!

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).

Electric hook ups are available for caravans, camper vans, trailer tents and motorhomes, but not tents.

Rental Tents are available for those who fancy a ready made camping adventure!

We look forward to welcoming you to this beautiful corner of the Chilterns!

Special Place

So close to transport routes but panoramic country views. Can catch both sunrise and sunset. Great base for walking, cycling, geocaching, tea shops all straight from your tent. (Excellent transport routes to London, and surrounding towns).Site washing up area has microwaves and kettles. (Fridges and freezers I've not used)Showers and toilets are 1st class. Everything maintained to consistently really good standard.Site staff/owners are always friendly, informative and helpful.Sheep in adjacent field always an added bonus.

Super location, but expensive, poor facilities

Lee, Peter - 04/05/2024

Location, walk to Ivinghoe, excellent. Staff friendly.But despite being very expensive fees, the facilities did not reflect the fees.Tepid at best from hw basin taps.No hooks to hang clothes, wash bag, etc whilst washing and shaving.Despite mentioning to staff, so called hot water was never moor than tepid.Typical of a site designed and operated by people with no experience of actually using such facilities. Showers, despite being small were good, except that anything touching walls became wet with condensation, because room was so cold.

Great location but expensive

Green, Jon - 01/05/2024

I have stayed at Town Farm campsite before by myself and thought it good value. Unfortunately the pricing schedule charges per person and therefore if there's two of you it is an expensive stay. This is a shame as the location is excellent and the site has lovely views.Please Town Farm re visit your pricing as £37 a night is far too much. We stayed the night before at a beautiful site on a pitch with hard standing and electric for £20, that is comparable with European site prices.
