Town Farm Campsite

Town Farm is a new camp site with stunning views over the Vale of Aylesbury and Ivinghoe Beacon. Town Farm is a working farm nestled at the foot of the Chiltern Hills and has been run by the Leach family since the early 1930s. About 1,000 sheep are farmed on the Beacon Hill and surrounding high ground, while the lower fields are used for crop cultivation. The `Pick Your Own` opens in June and guests can take a picnic and stock up on fruit and vegetables. The farm enjoys fantastic views of the surrounding countryside including the local landmark - Ivinghoe Beacon, which marks the start of the famous Ridgeway Walk. The farm is close to the Grand Union Canal with the towpath and boat trips available. We are within an easy trip to London by train in 50 minutes, the snow dome in Hemel Hempstead and ten minutes from Whipsnade Safari Park.
