Church Farm

A aimé Loved the camping set up, being able to walk around the farm, see the animals etc. We had a woodland pitch and would definitely do that again.

Plenty of access to water and loo's (compost loo's).

The shop was really well stocked if you forgot anything and the cafe was also great. There was also a mobile golf buggy shop that went round which was fun and a great chance to grab an impromptu ice cream or more logs!

I really like that it is a not for profit business and all of the staff seemed genuinely happy in their jobs and were polite and really helpful.

Lots of likes, no dislikes. My kids have said that we have to camp there again next year!

A aimé friendly staff. There is plenty of space to pitch a tent and park your car. There is also a lot of land for walking and exploring. There is a farm nearby where you can see llamas, pigs, cows and goats. It’s a great place to spend time with children.

N'a pas aimé The only downsides are the planes flying overhead throughout the day and night, and the small shop, which isn’t very well stocked.

A aimé Super friendly and good facilities.

N'a pas aimé So, the pub isn't open on Tuesday, not sure about the other days. So if your on a bike like I was and want a pint and food after a 65 mile day plan ahead or call to find out the hours because I didn't see them listed. It worked out, I survived without and had peanut butter, Jelly and 2 eggs.

A aimé Nice little farm shop, and decent beer in the farm-run pub. Compost toilets were plentiful, clean and well stocked with loo roll and sawdust. Lots of space to pitch my tent. Friendly welcome and I was given a little handbook. The farm has very good signage throughout.

N'a pas aimé The noise from the planes landing at Luton airport was near constant, as they fly over the farm to line up on their final approach. There's also lots of general noise from families and children as the sound travels very easily around the different camping fields. There is an option of a 'quiet' field at the bottom of the farm. I didn't go there so I don't know how much quieter it would have been. The ground was rock hard, which cost me a few of my pegs and left all but one only an inch or so deep - fortunately it wasn't windy. Despite the no open fire policy, there's clear evidence that lots of fires have been laid on the ground, including during my stay. A bit concerning given the length of the current dry spell. Didn't like having to wear a wrist band. I took it off as soon as I realised there was no point to it.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're really pleased you enjoyed the farm shop, our pub, the cleanliness of our compost toilets, the spacious pitches, and that you found the team welcoming.
Just to clarify a few points for future visitors: while we're near Luton Airport, we're not always under the flight path, so aircraft noise varies depending on wind direction and operating conditions. As a family-friendly campsite, there will naturally be some noise during busier periods, but we also offer a quieter camping field for those looking for a more peaceful stay.
We do allow campfires and operate a safe fire policy, which is explained on arrival and includes a few simple precautions, especially during dry weather. When the ground is particularly hard, we also recommend bringing heavy-duty tent pegs.
Our wristbands simply help us identify guests staying on site, allowing us to keep the campsite safe and secure for everyone.
Thank you again for your feedback. We really appreciate it and hope these clarifications help give future guests a better idea of what to expect.

A aimé Amount of space to camp. Good facilities. Animals were great and well looked after. Lovely piglets.

A aimé Brilliant site within 1h25 drive from London. Lovely having it as a working farm too with lots of animals and things to explore. Being allowed to have real fires was our number one prerequisite too. Loved it, we’ll be back

N'a pas aimé Only slight negative was being on the flight path so some noisy planes overhead in the night

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi, thank you for taking the time to leave us a lovely review. We're so pleased you enjoyed your stay and that you loved the working farm, exploring the animals, and being able to enjoy a campfire. It's wonderful to hear you'll be back.

We're really sorry to hear you were disturbed by the planes overhead. They don't fly over us all the time, but when the wind is coming from the west, aircraft approaching Luton Airport can pass overhead. As we're around 20 miles from the airport, they're not usually too loud, but on a still day the noise can carry more than usual.

Thank you again for your feedback, and we look forward to hopefully welcoming you back.
