Whittlebury Campsite at Silverstone

 

Our long term partner for the Silverstone F1 and MotoGP is Whittlebury Park Campsite which is the best and the closest campsite to the circuit.

We have been camping here since 2010 and we love it! As well as all of the atmosphere and fun that comes along with our own camping village, we strongly recommend you wander around the entire campsite and enjoy all that has to offer too.

Every year the Silverstone Inter-Agency Campsite Sub-Group, which comprises the environmental departments of the local county councils, the police and fire brigade, check all the Silverstone campsites that have submitted themselves for inspection and award ratings relating to the range and quality of their facilities.

The campsite we use (Whittlebury) has been awarded the highest possible rating of "Platinum".

"The ‘Platinum’ rating is reserved for those campsites that not only meet all our health, safety and welfare standards, but also go above and beyond the minimum requirements to ensure that their customers have the best possible campsite experience."

Whether it's camping on the 15th hole (did we mention that it is also a golf course?) with a view of a grandstand over the lake or up at the top of the site by the hotel, we are fortunate to be setting up camp here and know that you'll have as much fun as we do.

The location and the team were amazing. 15 minutes from the track but very calm to return to each day. Great for families. The intents team were extremely helpful and efficient.

As always the IntentsGP staff are super helpful and there are plenty of them. We stayed in a premium bell tent at Whittlebury. Best toilets and showers ever! Straightforward walk down to the circuit at Copse (about 15 -20 min walk). Have used them a few times before and will be using them again. Bar and breakfast reasonably priced, lots of options.
