 We enjoyed our stay and would return to the site if we needed a stopover.
A really friendly welcome in the pub.
Choice of pitches. Some flat, some sloped, most with mole hills and quite bumpy. Lots of space, huge field with ehu round the edges.
Facilities were ok but could do with some TLC. Toilet and sink both leaked, shower was perfectly usable but had mildew (would be quite easy to make this right).
Pub was nice - food excellent, drinks seemed expensive to us but we're from the north so I guess this being close to London will seem expensive!
Fantastic walks directly from site. Lots of choices.
You can hear the motorway noise clearly - very close to M1. It didn't keep us awake but it was constant.
Very dog friendly site and pub.
Cost was £20 with ehu which was fair.

Lovely site, very clean toilets.
Lovely pub although we didn’t eat there. But the pies are legendary.
Will return soon, to go to Whipsnade zoo again.

Stayed for only the one night, a very friendly pub with great atmosphere, great bar staff with table service.
Campsite was quiet, very clean facilities.
Will definitely be coming back again.

On arrival we were made to feel very welcome by Peter (Landlord) and Mark (Bar man).
We had a very comfortable stay for 2 nights, we were there to watch the Womens British Open Golf at Woburn, (which was excellent), after a day on the Golf Course we were straight into the Rose & Crown for a very good meal and few beers with the locals, they made us feel very welcome.
The site facilities were clean and quite adequate for our needs.
I will definitely return to visit Woburn and sample the country side walks.

We initially went for 1 night, but liked it so much we stayed for 2!
Lovely site, situated next to an equally lovely pub.
Fresh running water, electric hookups, spotlessly clean toilets and shower room. Separate facilities for Male and Female.
Landlord and landlady are very nice, nothing was too much trouble.
I can highly recommend this campsite. We will definitely be visiting again.

We received a warm welcome from the landlord who took over the premises last November.
This is a grass only site so we were a little apprehensive about driving our 7m 3500kg motorhome onto the site in February. We needn't have worried as the site owner new exactly where to place us.
The entrance through the large car park at the rear of the pub has plenty of gravel in the grass that extends well into the site. We had no problems entering and exiting the site after our week long stay. The site is mostly level but does drop off down to one corner and there are plenty of 10amp hook up points.
There was only one other motorhome on site when we arrived and no sign of any long termers mentioned in previous reviews. Our friends camped next to us in their caravan. The entrance gate is kept closed all the time for security.
Dogs can be exercised off site in a wooded area accessed from the rear of the site leading onto public footpaths. Although the M1 is visible in the distance through the trees there is hardly any noise and more trees have been planted.
The toilet block was clean and functional with separate male and female toilets, with hand basins and a single shower unit in each. The CDP is at a convenient height accessed by lifting a wooden lid and has its own tap for rinsing.
The pub serves good typical pub grub either in the dog friendly bar or the restaurant.

Campsite from hell - avoid!
Stayed at this campsite for a couple of nights as it was just down the road from Woburn Safari Park (main purpose of our visit) but never again.
As stated by previous reviews there are a number of 'mature' touring caravans and some larger ones (Hobby, Fendt, Roma variety) which appear permanently occupied complete with white vans and even a van containing tree cuttings ! Also, there was constantly loud music, shouting and abusive language from some of the larger caravans.
Campsite rules requested your vehicle be parked in the pub car park (so not very secure) once you've dropped your unit off but the white van occupants blatently ignored these rules and it appeared the landlords didn't enforce them as far as they were concerned.
Campsite layout was disorganised as some caravans placed in centre of field but the hook up points were located at the edge of the field ! This meant electric cables were strewn across the field thereby posing the risk of tripping over them. Also, tents were pitched less than a metre from caravans so no privacy.
Facilities were clean on arrival but quickly deteriorated and are very dated. They are unisex and the toilets face the urinals - not a good idea for women or children. The shower kept tripping and if it didn't trip then it either ran ice cold or scalding hot.
Basically, it's just a field behind the pub and at £14. 50 per night consider it expensive for what facilities are provided.
Definitely wouldn't return to this site or recommend it other than maybe for a one night stopover en route elsewhere.

Pleasant pub site. We stopped here on a bit of a whim to check the pub as offers camping facilities. The landlady Betty was very friendly and and welcoming.
Typical village type pub with quiet atmosphere and 'regulars'. Home cooked food was delicious and offered 2 ales; Charles Wells Eagle IPA and 1 guest ale. Site was clean, flat and accessible but the toilet/showers could do with some improvement.
In fact, as I am visually impaired my girlfriend suggested that maybe this was just as well! But then, maybe this is to be expected from pub sites?
We could hear the rumble of the M1 just beyond the field but this didn't bother us.
Overall, glad we stopped over but wouldn't go back unless we had a reason to, eg. Function/festival on site?

This is first and foremost a pub and not an all singing all dancing caravan park. Take it as you find it ! A field behind the pub, level and well kept. Populated by a number of permanently sited caravans which seem to be occupied by a variety of workers.
We found this to be no way detrimental as the site was wonderfully quiet and peaceful. Toilet/showers leave a little to be desired as were unisex and could be difficult for the ladies. They are situated in portable cabin type structures and accessed via some very steep steps with no handrail.
Difficult for those of us a little unsteady on our legs. Having said that, they were always clean. We always use onboard facilities but always make a point of visiting the loos just to be nosey.
Site bordered by woods and open fields with the pub on the south side. Pub serves excellent food at very reasonable prices and Peggy, the landlady, is very welcoming and helpful. A small shop and cafe next door stocks the basics, though Woburn Sands with a variety of shops is only a few minutes drive away. The main reason for our 2 night stay was our visit to Woburn Safari Park, the site only being a few hundred metres from the main entrance.
This was our second visit and noticed a couple of improvements since our last, two years ago, namely, new location and vastly improved Elsan tip, some new fencing and flower beds. Don't expect anything too grand, but perfectly adequate and suited us very nicely. Probably be back in a year or two for another visit to Woburn.
