What customers say

A tidy, tranquil, scenic spot with roomy pitches. Visitors loved the friendly vibe and handy location. Facilities mostly clean and work well, though a tad dated for some. Lakes and wildlife are a bonus, with good fishing. A few mentioned permanent residents or tidiness in spots.

Ron S.

Powered grass and gravel site

Liked Nice Area and roughly a 40 minutes walk into tge beautiful Town of st ives. Literally turn right out main gate and keep walking until you get to a roundabout. Go straight over and take next right, this road takes you by tge Dolphin hotel where if by motor you can oark for £2 then a walk over the bridge into town

Disliked Can't say I disliked anything, as other post suggests looks bit lije a traveller site but it's fine, shower and wc areas could do with a bit of TLC and there are no Dog litter bins
But overall enjoy.

Powered grass and gravel site

Liked Nothing

Disliked Unsafe and badly managed. Strong smell of drugs, loud music late at night, dog mess everywhere and no clear pitches. As a young woman alone with a child I felt unwelcome and unsafe – even overheard being called a “silly cow.” Owner laughed at my concerns. I left early and lost money. Avoid this site.

Powered grass and gravel site

Liked Not much to like apart from walking proximity to Fenstanton & St Ives.

Disliked Where to begin.
Welcome fairly non existant. Signage to reception poor, met by a guy with a sheet of paper who offered nothing by way of site information. Shown to pitch then he walked off.
Site has a large number of semi permanent/permanent/migrant worker guests who seem to neither know nor care about general site rules. Saw several open fires in fire pits although it is against site rules. Pitch next to ours had a guy chopping fire wood with a block and axe at from late evening right up until final chop at 22:40 to put on their open fire. 22:00 quiet rule not observed nor policed by site managers.
Toilet outdated and not what l would call hygenic.....toilet brush loaded excriment in cubicle l entered....and promptly left!
Left after only one night of our two night booking. Wouldnt recommend this site sadly.

Victoria C.

Unpowered grass tent site (two person)

Liked Peaceful and walking distance to shops and pubs.

Disliked Bathrooms weren’t clean and were blocked and out of service most of the time we were there. Temporary toilets need to be provided in the second field as it’s a long walk at night.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Fairly peaceful site would come again but the toilets need some work.

Liked Location and area.

Disliked Very tight pitches. You were crammed in when new guests arrived. Our pitch was OK but some new arrivals after us just seemed to be put where they had some spare grass.

Local attractions

Martini or tonic? Pick your poison at the Roundwood Distillery (20 minutes’ drive), where gin is the speciality. Beforehand, line your stomach with goodies sourced from the local market town, Huntington (10 minutes). Welcome to cathedral city… Ely (half an hour) is known as much for its rosy-cheeked gin as it is for its sky-high cathedral and stained glass museum. The cities are pretty imposing here, as Cambridge (25 minutes) is full of learning… master the art of punting on the river Cam or eye up modern art at the museums. Switch modern artefacts for jumbo jets at Britain’s largest aviation museum, Imperial War Museum Duxford (25 minutes). Then, bring things back down to earth at Houghton Mill (15 minutes), a National Trust site with tea rooms, canoeing and cycling at the final remaining mill on the river Ouse. Less for canoeing and more for wildlife spotting, RSPB Fen Drayton Lakes (10 minutes) harbours more waterways, frequented by otters, geese, ducks and swans.
