  • 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.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Relaxed, no fuss, good value, good essential facilities, flat dry grassy pitches

Disliked: Like most locations in the area, some plane noise from Luton airport, it is what it is and didn't detract from our stay.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Having a “kitchen” area with a fridge and a sink. Could do with some chairs and table, but it was a pleasant surprise

Disliked: Outdoor showers only, it was very cold with very strong winds so not pleasantly. There is some covered indoor area but the door was always wide open and it was freezing as well

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are sorry your stay wasn't what you expected, its a shame the bank holiday weekend turned out to be so cold following a very hot spell!
We do take on board your comments and ratings as these help us improve.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Stayed for a weekend and loved the site. Friendly owners and the site itself feels safe. Brilliant facilities, some of the best we've seen camping, icnluson a fridge and indoor washing up.
Nice and peaceful site that is well located and easily accessible. Don't forget your earplugs to save you from the plane noise, though! Only downside.

Disliked: Planes, but this can be mitigated.

Liked: The toilets were clean, staff were welcoming and friendly . Lots of lovely walks and a pub in walking distance

Disliked: Maybe due to a thunderstorm there were airplanes flying over most of the night

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely "liked" words; my brother works hard to keep the site clean and he (and the dog, flip flop) are always really friendly to guests.
The flight path into Luton Airport is a little out of our control though!!

Would probably camp there in the future.

Liked: Well maintained areas the shower and toilet block was excellent the planes were a bit loud but what would you expect that close to Luton ideal for London visit and Bletchley park which was our itinerary

Disliked: A little difficult to find from postcode but no problem from name

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hi thanks for staying with us, we are close to the airport but they do change the flight path on a regular basis so that's good, we also hope to get some official signs up next year as we have applied to the council, we do have a new post code just this month for the site on Land Park Lane and this is LU6 2PZ, we will add to Pitchup ready for next season, thanks again, great pictures, see you soon.

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.
