  • Well-maintained, dog-friendly farm campsite in Cambridgeshire fenland
  • Sandringham Estate 40 minutes’ drive; Heacham beach 55 minutes
  • Best of both worlds - In between nature and local amenaties
Found in a quiet corner of the rural Cambridgeshire Fens – close enough to the borders of Lincolnshire and Norfolk for days of adventure in three different counties – Hawthorne Farm Wisbech is a well-maintained and peaceful sort of place, with grass pitches overlooking rolling fields. One of the biggest USPs here is the fact that dogs are welcomed on site with open arms. They are allowed everywhere on the camping fields except the leafy garden around the pond, and they get their own special field for doing the zoomies – but of course, please be sure to clean up after them. Another bonus here is the site’s proximity to local amenities. Yes, it’s tucked into peaceful countryside, but the supermarkets of Wisbech are only 15 minutes’ drive away, there are farm shops for buying up barbecue goodies within 20 minutes, and a decent sprinkling of pubs and restaurants in around the same distance. A third advantage of staying here – this one is weather-dependent, however – is that if the skies are cloudless, you’ll be rewarded with spectacular sunrises and sunsets, and after dark the Milky Way will dance its way across the heavens. And of course, there are loads of quiet country lanes for bike rides, as well as fenland walks straight from the pitches. However, if you’re keen on exploring far and wide around the Fens, the site owners advise that it’s best to have a car.

What customers say

Hawthorne Farm gets props for its peaceful, out-of-the-way spot with amazing views, roomy, level sites, and great dog amenities. Reviews rave about super-clean, well-kept facilities like hot showers, a kitchen, and laundry. Staff are always friendly and helpful. The access road is a common complaint, but most think it's not the campsite's fault. Perfect for a quiet escape!

Liked My family and I went for a 2 nights stay in the Hawthorne Farm Wisbech with our tent. There were great facilities in the site: electric hook up, clean toilets and showers. The site itself is very peaceful and family- friendly. The pitch size is huge that we have an enormous space for our tent and play area for our little one. The site gave small goodies (bottle opener and a pen, which is very useful). We did not have any issues with the phone network coverage. Kitchen has a lot of amenities: washing machine, fridge, toaster kettles, and small box for kids entertainment (racket for badminton and board game). Overall, we love the place and definitely come back.

Powered grass campsite

Liked Remote site, peaceful, well kept fields and a walking area that once matured with the growth they have planted will be lovely.

Plenty of room for your pitch and we will definitely be back.

Disliked Others have mentioned the road to the site and if you are towing it is a dodgy road, but I also found a lot of the roads in the area are quite bad (tractor traffic has caused it I imagine). It is something the site cannot control but worth still pointing out so people know how to adapt driving

Liked Another fab stay here, camping field lovely and flat and well maintained. Showers, toilets and kitchen facilities all excellent and clean. Dogs loved the dog field once again. Great place to watch the eclipse from and also the Persiod meteor shower due to the fact that there was no light pollution. Can thoroughly recommend. Good variety of wildlife in the area, was fab to watch the bats at night and also hear the owls and foxes.

Liked Absolute hidden gem! It was very quiet and peaceful. Facilities were perfect and clean. The dog field was amazing too for our fury friends. As 2 adults and 4 pups we couldn't have asked for better. Pitch sizes were massive. As others mentioned road in was abit bumpy but slow and steady and it was fine. Staff super friendly. Can't wait to return. Oh and the views on a night were 😍 GORGEOUS!

Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Liked Fantastic space, where dogs are not only welcome but catered for.

Disliked Only downside here is the road leading in which is through no fault of Hawthorne. Just a watch out.

Local attractions

Photogenic Wisbech (15 minutes’ drive) sits on the banks of the River Nene. Have a stroll through the streets and a nose around the daily market, and then take yourselves off to see the Georgian splendour of elegant rooms at the National Trust - Peckover House and Garden. If the weather’s not playing ball with you, take the kids to the climbing walls at Fenrock Climbing Centre or learn about fenland flora and fauna in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum. For more fenland history, make a beeline for Flag Fen Archaeology Park (half an hour), showcasing a 3,500 year-old Bronze Age site and reconstructed round houses. Find out how medieval royalty lived with a visit to striking Castle Rising, and see how our present-day monarch lives with a tour of the grand apartments and gardens at Sandringham Estate (both 40 minutes). If the kids are getting bored with all this cultural stuff, restore good humour at Church Farm - Stow Bardolph (40 minutes), where they can pet the alpacas and ponies. If they’re still not happy? Head for the expansive beach at Heacham (55 minutes) for an ice cream and a bracing stroll along the dunes.
