Non-electric grass touring pitch
Liked Probably our favourite site so far!!!
A very friendly welcome from Tracey and Richard. This is a beautifully kept site on a fantastic farm. We parked amongst the trees and it felt magical. Quiet, relaxing and exactly what we needed. We would travel the distance just to stay here again.

Highly recommended if you want to camp in unspoilt environment
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked This is one of the most beautiful, picturesque campsites we have been to in the few years. Secluded pitches (non-electric), beautifully mowed grass/meadow, with islands of long grass with marguerites, tucked between trees.
It feels like wild camping!
There is no elelectricity in these areas, so make sure you have you power supply with you is you want to make coffee or charge your phone.
Disliked The single portaloo is really the most basic of facilities, but we knew that when we booked.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked This site is so picturesque I really loved it from the moment we arrived! With a nice pond on site, access to the footpath down the canal and lots of wildlife it’s a really great spot. The owners were lovely and very friendly. There’s no showers on site but we were only staying for one night and the facilities provided were all we needed. A short walk into the village which had a nice pub!!

The perfect nature retreat
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked A gorgeous peaceful, tranquil campsite located next to the river and overlooking a lovely big pond. Extremely quiet, with nothing but the sound of birdsong to wake you in the morning. The perfect place t relax and connect with nature, plus a very pleasant river walk in to Ely, or a short bus ride in to Cambridge.
Disliked Nothing, just remember it has limited facilities - no showers and just a portaloo, which was fine for me in my self contained motorhome

Peace, quiet and amazing owners
Electric grass touring pitch
Liked Richard & Tracy are perfect hosts and very helpful, even telling us there was no rush at departure time. This site was exactly what we wanted, so much so we stayed an extra night. There are few facilities but we knew this when we booked as we had read the description fully. Only needed electric & water. We have what we need in our caravan, just wanted peace & quiet which we got. I saw some reviews from stupid people complaining - read the full details before you book, this site doesn't claim to have a pool, club house or erupting volcano on site, if you want this go elsewhere.
If you want a lovely peaceful site tucked away at the end of a no through road beside the river with generous pitch size and lovely owners, with a portaloo so clean it looks like new, then this is your place.
Thank you for a lovely stay, we will definately be back.

Can't wait to return
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Tucked out of the way but easy to find, it's the turning to the right just before the bridge.
It's a well kept grassy site with very spacious pitches at the front with electric hook up or if you're in a tent/car camper drive right to the back to find lots of secluded little spots amongst the trees. So quiet and peaceful here. (Adults only so perfect for those who don't want kiddies running about) Perfect spot for walks along the river with the dog watching the boats.
The owners are a lovely family, very welcoming and helpful.
Felt very safe as a solo female camper and very relaxing for my nervous doggie too ❤️
One extremely clean portaloo! and fresh water tap.
Camping as it should be! 🙂👍🏼
Disliked Nothing to dislike.
