What visitors say
Camperside near Whipsnade Zoo is a wonderful place to stay. It has a very friendly, relaxed atmosphere and is perfect for a peaceful break. It’s also dog-friendly, which made the experience even better for us. This is a lovely family-run small business, and you can really feel the care and positive energy throughout the place. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a calm and welcoming spot to relax.

A great spot and just what we were looking for. Quiet and comfortable, and a great location for nearby attractions and towns. Also, I lost my wedding ring while there and despite my friend and I looking all around for a couple of hours with no joy, I left disappointed. Much to my amazement however, Paul and other members of the family took the time to go out searching for it, and managed to locate it in the deep grass with the help of metal detectors. I hadn't expected such care and couldn't be more grateful for all their kind efforts! No hesitation at all in recommending the site and the hosts!
