Fen Meadows

Понравилось Location to get to Cambridge is ok

Не понравилось Facilities are not as advertised. Overpriced for what it is. Dirty, dusty tent with holes in netting. Bio toilets with floating poo. Showers made of some sheets in open air with some, not having a roof over the head. Overgrown grass. Didn’t see the owner/ receptionists where upon arrival I was told over the phone to find and proceed to the tent. Neglected site with no interest in guest or reviews from the owners. Never will stay again. I’ve stayed in eco camps and I thought I’ve seen everything. Was not prepared for such disaster where I feel I was robbed and defiantly would like to have at least half of my money back. Traveling to shops to use the toilet is not right when I’ve payed more than 100 pounds for a night. Owners are either on long holiday themselves or, are not interested in their business. Disaster.

Понравилось Lovely welcome upon arrival. Pods were spaced nicely, lovely communal area in the kitchen and had a brilliant few days.

Понравилось Staff.. so kind and friendly. Keen to help.
Needs: nice to sleep on a proper bed

Не понравилось Kitchen: it’s a basic gas cooker, so only one family/unit can cook at a time. There are 9!! Units. Only a basic under counter fridge…. Again imagine trying to get 9 families food/drink in there… bit of a bun fight! Upside is a lovely covered open air kitchen seating space.

Sanitation: No sanitary bins in loos. Also are just basic camping toilets £50 from go outdoors!, often with other people’s poop still in them , and one of the four has a toilet seat that slid off! Not the kind of loo you would ever want to do a number 2 in. Not something I would ever want to do again .. left after 1 night of a three night booking.

Location: it’s on a rutted field with desiccated dog! Poop, upside quiet area.

Pitch: surrounded by grass and weeds.. perfect for the insects though

Accommodation; cool bell tents, pity stove inside was full of ash that needed scooping out by hand with “holy” oven gloves. No electric.. lacking what you think was glamping basics .. ie for glamorous camping!! Had to remove screws sticking up on tent decking to avoid having to visit hospital with shredded feet! Luckily found hammer and screwdriver under kitchen sink.

Showers: did the job nicely, pity only one out of two had shower gel (though not something would expect at a basic campsite anyway). One of the showers had a nice green mould growing around the drain .. see picture!

Sinks: to wash hands after using the loos are outside and you need your own hand soap .. plan ahead and think of the weather!

Other reviews mentioned chickens eggs available for breakfast… found a run down chick coop with 3 run down huts and one lonely chicken… not sure the poor thing had any egg laying left in it.

Понравилось The tent was exactly as described with lots of little touches like healthy fruit juice for the kids and coffee for the adults. The bedding was lovely and warm. The owners were incredibly responsive and answered all of our questions quickly and efficiently. Bathroom facilities were clean.

Не понравилось The hot water in the shower was a little bit too hot and the kids couldn’t have a proper shower as a result. It wasn’t possible to adjust the temperature.

Понравилось The location is just lovely and facilities offer everything you could need. Beds are very comfy with quality feather bedding!

So enjoyed building my own fire and just relaxing with a book while it crackled away!

Units are a good distance apart so retain a reasonable element of privacy and plenty of space to play games so great for kids..and dogs for that matter!

Best part was the staff though, especially Eddie who manages the place; he works his socks off all day and will help with absolutely anything you might need!

Не понравилось Not a dislike, more advice - if you’re staying in a yurt with wood burner, be sure to look for the flue valve lever on the chimney and open it up or you’ll end up smoked out! 😁

Понравилось Nothing

Не понравилось Turned up with no instructions sent to us it was my partners birthday. We arrived to no one greeting or anything, we eventually found our cabin which was spider infested and the the hot tub was really filthy. We rang the number on pitchup.com to be told it was an old employee who no longer works there and was given the number for the owner. He did give us a full refund and told us they didn’t realise they had a booking, he was very nice after but the whole experience ruined my partners birthday, we traveled very far to what we thought would be a nice weekend away, will certainly not be staying ever again or recommend for anyone.
Very out dated photos on the website the site looks nothing like this and is very unsafe for children with broken steps and missing parts to the walk.

We found a lodge an hour away with a private garden and hot tub with very modern decor for the same price
