  • Quiet grass pitches on a working farm in the Chiltern Hills
  • A five-minute drive to Whipsnade Zoo; walk out to Dunstable Downs
  • Alpacas and sheep on site; pubs within easy walking distance
Farm sites are fab places to stay for family holidays – and the location of New Green End Farm, in the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty between the villages of Kensworth and Whipsnade, is a particularly excellent one. And why would that be? Well, this Bedfordshire location is just a couple of miles from Whipsnade Zoo, meaning that you can walk there in half an hour or so, or maximise your time among the animals by driving there in five minutes. You can stroll straight out into the Dunstable Downs too, and there are a couple of pubs within walking distance for post-outing meals and drinks. If that's not enough walking yet, spend some time wandering around the farm as well – there are miles of pathway to wander along at this working farm, and lots of animals to spot along the way (including sheep and alpacas). That large open space makes for a mighty peaceful place to stay as well, and the grass pitches have been kept on the simple side to make the most of that rural atmosphere. They’re set well back from the main road and surrounded by woodland and open fields, with access to toilets, showers and a washing-up area, plus recycling facilities to keep the place nice and clean. Barbecues and campfires are permitted for that classic outdoor evening vibe, and dogs are welcome to join you on site here. There are a few village stores and farm shops scattered around the vicinity, but for major supplies your best bet is Dunstable, which is five minutes' drive away and home to a couple of large supermarkets.

What customers say

Peaceful, roomy park with excellent facilities. Owners are a big hit, as are the views and local pubs/walks. Bell tents are a favourite. Occasional plane noise and camper noise noted, plus a bit of initial signage bother.

Hayley C.

Bell tent

Liked Great location, 5 minutes drive from the Downs. Really helpful staff. Bell tent was fantastic, with electric, logs, fire pit included. Comfortable bed, just make sure you take bedding. 2 chairs provided. Toilet block clean with lovely shower, only one shower but not a problem. Woods next door to walk the dogs in. Just loved it!!

Disliked I wished we had known that electric & logs were included! Bag of logs normally £9 but included in your first night in a bell tent.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked Only Stayed for one night. Having check in from 10am was great, we could set up our tent before heading over to the zoo for the day. We found having access to a fridge and freezer was very helpful meant we could re freeze ice packs for our cooler box. The site was quiet and peaceful,

Overall, a good site to stay at.

Abigail G.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked The facilities were really nice. Charging ports for phones, clean toilets and decent showers.
Nice and quiet place and good local facilities. Nice host too.

Disliked Wasps nest in the floor which the host knew was there, tried to get rid of but it was still there. We didn’t realise until after putting everything up and then having to move everything as 50 wasps came out.

Not the camps fault but a big family next to us who kept running very close to our tent or hitting tennis balls near our tent. Also one child ran too close and tripped over our tent wires, falling into our tent.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: thank you for your kind comments and apologies about the wasps. We hope to have got rid of them very soon.

Lovely campsite. Lovely views. Clean facilities; great to have access to fridge,…

Powered grass motorhome site

Liked Begrüßung war sehr freundlich.
Küche und WC's waren ordentlich und sauber. Die Nähe zum Zoo war unser Grund für die Auswahl.

Disliked Es gibt nur eine Outdoor-Dusche.
Die Straße und die Flugzeuge sind sehr laut, da kann der Betreiber aber nichts für.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hallo Andreas, danke, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, uns Feedback zu geben. Schön, dass Ihnen unsere Einrichtungen insgesamt gefallen haben. Wir haben zwar zwei Duschen und liegen in der Flugroute nach Luton, aber wie Sie gesagt haben, haben wir darauf keinen Einfluss. Wir hoffen, Sie bald wiederzusehen.

Excellent site, in a great area for zoo, pub, and peace!

Local attractions

Whipsnade Zoo (five minutes' drive) is the big draw around here, of course – this offshoot of the Zoological Society of London is home to more than 10,000 animals from around the world, and it’s also got several play areas and a steam railway. To spend more time in the open air, you may like to stroll through the National Trust’s Dunstable Downs estate (25 minutes’ walk), walk through the Whipsnade Tree Cathedral (20 minutes) or pick any one of the scenic trails running through the chalk landscapes of the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Golfers may like to get out onto the greens at Dunstable Downs Golf Club (three minutes’ drive) or Whipsnade Park Golf Club (10 minutes). A little further afield, there’s go-karting, indoor snow sports and the National Museum of Computing up in Milton Keynes (half an hour), a castle in Berkhamsted and a steam railway in Buzzard (both 20 minutes). For a special day out, it's a half-hour drive to the Harry Potter Studio Tour.
