  • Small CAMC-members site 10 minutes’ drive from March in East Anglia
  • Ely Cathedral half an hour’s drive; Sandringham Estate 40 minutes
  • Dog-friendly pitches with spectacular starry skies on clear nights
Big Skies in East Anglia has lots going for it. Countryside views, outstanding sunrises and sunsets in clear weather and frequent visitations from deer, foxes, buzzards, red kites and owls – and that’s just for starters. Only open for Caravan and Motorhome Club members, this small, family-run site is in the Fens well away from towns and cities, so pitch-black skies allow frequent stargazing and satellite-spotting opportunities after dark. Set in nine acres of grassland, the spacious grass pitches can easily accommodate a large awning. Owners, their dogs and cyclists can follow countryside walks straight from the site on quiet Fenland B roads, but stay around and you may find yourself learning how to land yacht or paraglide (tuition and equipment hire is available). There’s also a pétanque court and fishing in local rivers to keep everyone happily entertained. The thriving Fenland town of March (10 minutes’ drive) has numerous pubs, cafés and takeaways as well as supermarkets if you need to restock provisions. It also has twice-weekly markets (Wednesday and Saturday) with lots of stalls to browse, and you can catch a train from the railway station for relaxed day trips to Ely and Cambridge.
