Within a few miles of the A1 but surrounded by trees so that you feel you're a million miles away from the daily bustle, Ashridge Farm Club Campsite is a perfect place to relax and unwind. A short walk from the caravan site will take you to the beautiful and historic village of Ashwell where you will discover the charms of the 14th century church and 15th century cottages. You will also find a good selection of local pubs and village shops while touring in this part of Hertfordshire.

The local country lanes surrounding Ashridge Farm Club Campsite are perfect for cycling enthusiasts. There is a network of convenient footpaths punctuating the lovely, gently undulating countryside, which is perfect for cyclists and walkers alike. The university city of Cambridge is only a short drive away from the caravan park, as is the first garden city of Letchworth. You could also visit the historic town of Baldock and market town of Hitchin for an interesting day out. Other local attractions include the working farm estate of Wimpole Hall, the Duxford War Museum and Shuttleworth Aircraft Collection. Further afield, the charming town of Saffron Walden is well worth exploring.  If you fancy a change of scene, the frequent rail service from Ashwell and Morden stations make it possible to visit the city of London.

Directions

Please only use these recommended directions for the final approach and not sat nav, as this leads you through the village with very narrow roads which are unsuitable for towing. Leave the A1(M) at junction 9 onto the A505 (signposted Royston). Then follow the signpost Royston onto Baldock Bypass. Do not turn off the first left (signposted Ashwell), this is a narrow bumpy road. In about 2.5 miles turn left at the second signpost Ashwell, Steeple Morden, Station; within 0.5 miles turn left into the road signposted Ashwell. The site is on the right in 1.5 miles.

So lovely

Ashridge Farm Club Campsite
This site is amazing as it’s in the middle of nowhere hardly heard a car. the WiFi is ok letting me type in this. The wardens Jill and Kevin are lovely did see the other wardens they were lovely too sorry don’t know their names. The shower block clean but dated and the only issue is the pressure of the hot water. It’s a very well kept site Some of the pitches could do with gravel but that’s the same at all the sites.

Poor shower block

Ashridge Farm Club Campsite
Have visited this lovely sites a few times previously. The shower / toilet block (gents side only visited) is in a desperate need of a deep clean / upgrade. As per previous reviews difficult to keep clean due to limescale around taps and fittings, damaged tiles / lining to showers. Please spend some money upgrading the facilities as a matter of urgency.

Very Very Poor Washing and Toilet Facilities

Ashridge Farm Club Campsite
We have stayed here several times. It’s a lovely little site with a great village nearby BUT these are by far the worst shower facilities I have used and frankly worse than those at any festival I have visited. The showers are very old and tired. The thermostats didn’t work so tepid showers. The fittings old and leaking. Cracked tiles and boards in the cubicles which makes it difficult to keep them clean. Extremely disappointing and these facilities need an urgent update.

Nice site, but ...

Ashridge Farm Club Campsite
... second C&MC site we have stayed at within a month which is not fulfilling any 'modern facilities' standards. The toilet and ablutions block is 'okay' but in dire need of an upgrade. But the standout problem is Wi-Fi. This site didn't even have the basic 'free' Wi-Fi facility installed meaning that modern life management ability was massively limited and the site seems to sit in a mobile phone black hole too, meaning that the usual fall-back option of phone hotspot wasn't available either. Whilst many may commentate that caravanning is all about 'getting away from all that nonsense' and it may be a fair comment, we have an elderly relative living with us and monitor her over the internet and need communications to her and her visiting carers to be available at all times. It was because of this, we left the site a day early and ventured back south. We were also denied access to local information and ideas to visit areas of interest. I cannot express enough how vital it is to get ALL sites upgraded as soon as possible and give caravanners the home-from-home options they expect from being members of such a prestigious club. C&MC should make every effort to give their customers at least the basic option as minimum standard, and the upgraded paid option before the end of the year, or at least inform caravanners clearly about shortcomings.

Let down by toilet block

Ashridge Farm Club Campsite
Used this site for visiting family nearby. Its convenient and in a nice village. But it is let down by the toilet block. It is not up to Caravan Club standards. It is very dated and is beyond being kept properly clean. Fittings are worn out, rusty and damaged. This appears to lead to some people leaving litter, spitting on the floor and smoking in the cubicles. I was quite shocked to find this happening at a club site. Also on two occasions the toilet paper had run out. I had to ask for it to be refilled. I don't mind paying club prices, but expect the facilities to be up to scratch. On the plus side the wardens were helpful and sympathetic. But I would not go back until a new toilet block is built.
