- Rural site with a fishing pond five minutes' drive from Hoddesdon
- Within an hour's drive of the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London
- Easy access from London by train or car; zoo 10 minutes' drive
An easy break from London? Or perhaps you’re after somewhere that you can mix up city sights with a slice of countryside life? Either way, Dalmonds Camping, in a rural Hertfordshire spot between Hoddesdon and Hertford, may well have just the location you’re looking for.
It's part of a working farm surrounded by fields and woodland, within a conservation area. Yet, it's still only about half an hour from central London by train from nearby Broxbourne.
Walking, bike rides, horse riding, golf and birdwatching can all be on the menu during your stay here – as can fishing, thanks to the fishing pond on site. And the area’s packed with attractions too, from River Lee Country Park (10 minutes' drive) to Hertfordshire Zoo (10 minutes) or the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London (55 minutes).
Finding the right balance of urban and rural here is up to you – you could choose to seek out one of the many child-friendly country pubs nearby or head into the medieval market town of Hertford, 10 minutes' drive away, to check out its various restaurants.

Local attractions
Those of you planning a day out in London can get there easily enough on the train from Hertford (10 minutes’ drive). If you’re not quite in the mood for the big city, you can still get your fix of history and culture by looking around Hertford Castle or planning trips to one of the area’s magnificent houses: perhaps Hatfield House (half an hour), Knebworth House (35 minutes) or Audley End House and Gardens (50 minutes)?
Keeping it active and outdoorsy instead, there are many trails to tread in Epping Forest (half an hour), birds to spot at RSPB Rye Meads (10 minutes) and adventurous activities to tackle at the Lee Valley White Water Centre (20 minutes).
Plenty of those options will suit families travelling with kids, but if you really want to give them a treat make the short journey to meet the exotic beasts at Hertfordshire Zoo (10 minutes) or book yourselves onto the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London (40 minutes) – it has to be said, a popular outing for the grownups too…
