Lovely site with the added bonus…
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Lovely site with the added bonus of an onsite bar and food van at peak times. We booked not realising there was live entertainment on the Saturday night so that was an extra bonus. Loved that we could book a late stay for an additional fee - I wish more campsites offered this option as it's so handy if you are just going away Friday after work for the weekend. Facilities - 3 ladies toilets, 2 toilets and urinal in men's and a seperate disabled shower/toilet. There are then 4 unisex shower cubicles and inside washing up facilities. All spotlessly clean. This was our first stay and is local to us so will definitely be back. Slight hum of traffic in the background but certainly not enough to put you off coming here. They don't have any hardstanding (which would always be our preference) but our grass pitch was level so didn't need to use chocks. There seems to be a lack of sites in this area that are open all year so if they added some hardstanding pitches I'm sure they would get booked up even over the winter. Ely is lovely to visit and site handy for visits to Cambridge as well. All in all an excellent weekend.
Disliked Nothing to dislike - enjoyed our stay.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked A lovely small campsite with lots of local amenities but equally has a pub and food van on site. There is a lovely meadow walk across the road that takes you for miles in the countryside. Great spot for Wicken Fen and lots of other NT and RSPB sites. The staff were really lovely and attentive. Campsite was fab and the pitches were a great size. The showers/loos and washing up facilities were in excellent condition and very clean. Thanks for a great stay.
