Camp in the heart of Chiltern Hills

It was one of the best camping sites we visited. Service couldn't be better. The site is so clean and looked after. Definitely would recommend it and will stay here again.Ps I believe kids' play area would make the site even better.

Lovely campsite and manager with a great choice of pitches in woodland and fields. Fire pits and wood supplied and shared fridges and freezers. All facilities including showers and toilets were modern and well-maintained. Definitely worth ordering pizzas on site. Perfect location with shops nearby and plenty of walks.

Absolutely beautiful campsite, real feeling of privacy in the woods, with lovely views across the countryside. Clean and pleasant facilities, and super-helpful staff looking after your ever need, including daily delivery of more than enough logs for a good campfire!

Fantastic holiday and we had our own garden perfect thank you Nikki

It was a pleasure to stay at Chiltern Retreat Rural Camping. The facilities were clean and excellent condition and the host was friendly and welcoming. Located in the heart of the Chilterns, the campsite is perfect for hiking up hills and through woodlands and peaceful villages. The pitch was spacious and secluded with complementary firewood. Would love to stay here again. Special thanks to Bella and Coffee Dan 😊

Beautiful camping with nice and private spot per camping, we arrived late and Niki was very kind to accommodate us anyway. We stayed one night but we will definitely go back

Good location, not far from Chiltern Way Route 3. Made a last minute booking and found Nicki very helpful. When we arrived, she found us a good tenting spot as some heavy rain was expected. All the expected facilities were there and were in good condition and clean.

We had a relaxing weekend camping on this beautiful campsite. There are a variety of pitches to suit everyone. We chose a secluded woodland pitch and weren't disappointed - it included a firepit and logs were delivered daily. The toilet and shower block were a short walk away and were extremely clean. On the Saturday night we enjoyed a freshly cooked pizza from the cabin onsite. Nikki was extremely friendly and helpful. We're already planning our next visit.

Absolutely loved it!!! Would give it six stars out of five if I could. There are three places you can camp. We chose Woodland. It's also one of the few sites that allow open fires, but at the time I went in mid August, due to the hot dry weather, understandably, open fires are temporarily banned. But you can still cook on Charcoal/Has BBQ as long as minimum of 3ft above ground and great care is taken.The shower blocks, separate men's and women's shower areas were all very clean and lots of free hot water. Good washing up facilities, and there are freezers, fridges, and areas to charge up phone etc.You are directed to each woodland pitch by the owner.The pitches are large and spacious.The owner was super friendly and helpful.I didn't go to the others areas of the site, camping in a field etc. But this is supposed to be a off grid style - so no electrical hook up at the pitchesAny downsides?It is expensive. If you are going as a group, you negotiate a group discount.I will go back - many times for sure Absolutely loved it! :)Update - came back in July 2024. This is still 6 out of 5 stars! 🙂 Your pitch in the Woodland section is your own glade! Lots of space, complimentary logs each night for your camp fire. Staff are so friendly and obliging. I have uploaded some pictures this time around. I cannot recommend Chiltern Retreat enough 🙂

Wonderful campsite. Have stayed twice in woodland glens. Was busy this time with groups but a very happy atmosphere and everyone was generally respectful of the rule to be quiet after 10pm. Niki does an amazing job of being available and keeping things running smoothly. Pizza available Friday and Saturday, coffee available the following mornings, should be promoted more. Gorgeous walks and several pubs in the area to choose from. Will definitely visit again.

Very pleasant, well-run campsite, with pitches among the trees or large group pitches in a field

What a beautiful and green campsite. The staff were lovely on arrival and very hospitable even though I was only there for a short period. I would love to come back and stay again

Well this is tricky because what we loved most was the quiet and the space, so I'm reluctant to big the place up.But it was lovely and I don't think Niki would ever let the quiet and space be compromised.Camping areas are well spread-out with meadow between. The very first sign I saw made it clear that people should be quiet as much as possible and super-quiet after ten. It really was quiet! We heard owls and the dawn chorus was magnificent but we all slept happy and undisturbed.The setting is incredible. I don't understand how there can be somewhere so remote and peaceful so close to London. The site is elevated so has views (we were in the parkland site, not in the woods).There are red kites above. Dozens of them in fact.The children ran about. We walked to the pub and attempted (but aborted) a walk to the cricket pitch.Loos and showers were decent and kept OCD clean.

Great location for Chiltern Way 3. Excellent facilities. Friendly staff. Good location, not far from Chiltern Way Route 3. Made a last minute booking and found Nicki very helpful. When we arrived, she found us a good tenting spot as some heavy rain was expected. All the expected facilities were there and were in good condition and clean.

Excellent campsite. More on the wild side than others which is why we like it. Beautiful woodlands and and views with very large pitches complete with complimentary firewood, fire pit and picnic bench.The facilities are rustic but clean and with adequate hot water.We took our small(ish) campervan and will be definitely coming back. The Prince Albert is an excellent tiny local pub with very friendly staff.If you're looking for a slightly sterile campsite with hardstandings, EHU and a shop selling pot noodles, this isn't for you. If you like the outdoors, woodlands, friendly staff (Nikki is lovely) and watching red kites soar around nearly in touching distance then definitely book here.

Beautiful location, discreet and spacious pitches, excellent (and recently further enhanced) facilities and service from the lovely Niki. Already booked to return in a few weeks so we can experience the beautiful countryside again.

What a great place to visit. Nicky the site manager was was fantastic, plenty of space around each pitch. Good supply of wood and a fire pit. Amazing walks and pubs from the campsite.

Had a great bank holiday weekend here.||We were a mix of adults, families, kids and couples. Tents and motorhomes.|Everybody was made to feel very welcome by the hostess. Facilities were clean and plentiful, although I may have missed every morning rush due to cocktail hangovers.||We were put up in a field where we had plenty of space from the other groups. There is also many pitches under the trees.||By 10pm everybody in the field was quietly enjoying a fire in their own pitch. Perfect getting the kids to sleep.||Spent a day in Henley on Thames, busy place, fair few shops. Lots of cafes and pubs.||Will return to the site, i have no doubt.||Thanks for looking after us x

Wonderful campsite. Big pitches in the woodland. Will be returning. Good facilities. Nikki was so helpful. Thank you for finding a quiet spot for Gordon. Great walks nearby. Our 2 dogs loved the easy walks from the site. Loads of pubs in the area.

Outstanding campsite and really well done.Super clean and tidy. Local pub the Yew Tree was excellent and just a short pleasant stroll across the field. Nikki is amazing and so helpful.Felt like wild camping. Will definitely be back. Great site

Excellent campsite, really friendly staff and good services, firewood included is a nice touch making life easier.

Amazing find. Local pubs and walks are a must, the frog do amazing food. Warm friendly welcome from Nicky with log top up each day. Felt like we were wild camping. Facilities are excellent. We will be back…

Arrived at the campsite approximately 5 in the evening and the atmosphere was brilliant and very nice breeze. The lady owner at the Campsite is so kind and given very nice private pitch within woods with BBQ machine and fire pit. Our enjoyment started after we set up our tents through out the night until morning. The campsite is really good for families and I would recommend for everyone who wants enjoy the life in woods for few days.

Despite a very last minute booking and arrival we were made to feel very welcome! We were in the field which was perfect for us and our friends and our kids aged between 3&8.||The picnic table, firepit and large pitch sizes were ideal to enjoy the open skies. Facilities were clean and nice..||Place to get coffee and crepes in the mornings and pizza at night.||Special mention about Niki who managed the site, she was friendly and personable which always leaves a good feel and made us feel so welcome. We'll definitely be back next year!

Great place for a relaxing holiday with family❤️🙏
