Town Farm Campsite

4.8 (227 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.

Due to a serious family illness we weren't able to go on the planned dates and George and the team allowed us to transfer the booking. Thank you so much.

A perfect campsite

Jones, Antonia - 22/08/2026

As a woman camping by herself I felt completely safe. The facilities were kept spotless and the views were amazing. I was pleased that campers were given space so not crammed in and were given the choice where they would like to pitch. I plan to visit again

Welcoming, Clean & Safe.

Laver, Michelle - 21/08/2026

As a solo female camper with children, I really feel safe and comfortable here. The welcome is good, I like being shown to my pitch up area. The facilities are excellent, I used the kitchen area, it’s very helpful to have the fridge freezer and microwave usage. The whole place is clean and friendly. Great location, we enjoy walking into Ivinghoe and Pitstone. Beautiful views all around. Oh and the visiting catering vans are a huge plus!

We have enjoyed camping and caravans for over 40years and were very happy with our first stay at Town farm campsite. The showers and toilets were immaculate and it’s in such a great location. We hope to return soon. Also the fish and chips on Saturday night were the best ever👍😊

The views

Foster, Steven - 20/08/2026

This campsite is situated surrounded by the Chiltern hills, we are actually quite local to the area, but you see the beautiful scenery from a different prospective! The sunrise and sunsets were amazing.The campsite is very well kept, all the amenities are clean and tidy. The staff are very friendly and helpful. We have been a few times, and would definitely recommend for couples, small groups and families.

Very good

Sharp, Lisa - 20/08/2026

We had an amazing time there is enough to keep kids entertained and the space for them to run around away from the tents. Facilities are always good and clean. It be good if there was a live band music in the court yard to have a little dance or some sort of festival elements. In Cornwall when we camp they have music bands at campsite and it is great. Also with this heat we are having it be great if there was a swimming pool to use to cool down as this campsite is very exposed and no shade. My husband broke down and there seemed to be no jump leads on site or anyone who could help him. It be nice to have a battery jump start for these very occassions. Also water fill up stations are too far away and would be better if there was a few taps on each field so not so far to walk.

Fab location, great facilities and attentive staff

Halstead, Mark - 20/08/2026

I come to town farm at least a couple of times a year as even though it’s only a short distance from my house it’s a great location! My only criticism would be with the food vans as they allow people to order massive amounts for huge groups which means you can be queueing for a very long time for something to eat like… a LOOONG time, take snacks for the queue!
