Whipsnade Zoo is a 15 minute drive away. It covers a massive site on the downs and takes a full day visit to do it justice. Part of ZSL (London Zoo) and its rare species breeding programme, the animals were first moved here for safety during WW2, coming by train to Dunstable and then by road. The elephants famously walked up.

Just 25 minutes drive away, or a short train journey from Tring to Watford, is the World of Harry Potter. It's everything you could possibly want to know about how the films were made. Magical.
