  • Northamptonshire farm site five minutes’ drive to Silverstone Circuit
  • Stowe Gardens 10 minutes’ drive and The Canal Museum 20 minutes
  • Pick-your-own grass pitches; pub and small shop five minutes’ drive
Heading to an F1 event at Silverstone? Book your stay at Dadford Road Campsite in Northamptonshire, as it’s a handy five minutes’ drive down the road from the racetrack. It’s also a clever choice if you’re wanting to explore the Capability Brown estate at Stowe Gardens (10 minutes’ drive), play golf, go hiking, try sky diving… or just put your feet up on site. The level, well-kept camping field is set on a family farm with large, pick-your-own-space grass pitches. They’re not limited by size, so you can spread out and camp together with family or friends if you like. Car parking is allowed on the field as well. Bear in mind that there’s no electricity on site, so factor in torches when it comes to packing your gear. Handy amenities include mains water, washing-up sinks, fully flushing toilets and hot showers with step-free access in the facilities block. You can pick up all your grocery needs at the local shop, or make haste to the nearest pub (both five minutes’ drive) for a pint and good food.

What customers say

A no-frills farm stay with great amenities. Praised for peace, friendly owners, and Silverstone access. Good value, though some found pitches uneven. Ideal for short breaks with nice views. Signage has been improved.

Simon J. 2 reviews

Unpowered grass site

Liked Shower & toilet facilities excellent. Owner who also farmed the land was pleasant and helpful.

Disliked Traffic noise when travelling over cattle grid could get irritating after a while especially late or early.
Found our choice of pitch was a little rocky under the grass as we only found out when trying to sleep and definitely too late to reposition.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Basic but functional set up, met all my needs.

Unpowered grass site

Liked Pleasant peaceful night, turns out i pitched in the wrong field but the owner left me to stay there which was great.

Disliked Cold shower and toilet block.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you Steve for your review
Glad you had a peaceful night's sleep
Hopefully you got a hot shower and it's just you felt the shower and toilet block was cold?
Did you use the fully closed Disabled toilet/showers on the end of the big shed?
