Town Farm Campsite

4.7 (212 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.

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.

Perfect campsite

Corsini, Matthew - 13/06/2025

Always a please returning to Town Farm. We have been coming to Town Farm for the last 15yrs and it is our favourite local site being only a 40min drive and very accessible from the A41. Perfect for families as there is always someone nearby in you need assistance. Pitches are spaces and amenities are excellent.

Lovely clean campsite with loads of facilities and friendly, efficient staff

Taylor, Erica - 12/06/2025

We had a great time on our group stay. There were loads of amazing options for food and drink which compliment the camping experience, lots of fun activities on site for the kids, super friendly staff who were very efficient delivering our logs and fire pits etc. great for families and dogs. The weather wasn’t ideal but we had a great time nonetheless. The indoor games room is a lifesaver in the Uk summertime!

A gem in the Chiltern Hills

Smith, Hannah - 12/06/2025

5

I stayed here with a friend on a little weekend getaway. We came from Watford, so not very far but it was the perfect place to pitch up for the night and switch off from our every day lives. The staff were welcoming and helpful and the facilities were clean with nice hot showers. There are plenty of beautiful walks nearby, including Ivinghoe Beacon and the Ashridge Estate. I would recommend this camp site for couples, families and friends who want a quiet place in the countryside to escape for a few nights.

Weekend camping

McKeown, Stuart - 12/06/2025

5

Site was exceptionally clean, great facilities… I was, greeted and welcomed on arrival and shown our pitch, genuinely impressed :)My only issue is that I found it rather expensive for a weekend, if it was cheaper I’d do it a lot more regularly. I also found the 11am Sunday kick out time a little hard to swallow… as we are local and would have liked to have stayed until later in the day before packing up.Other than that, great experience, lovely location.
