Shepreth Mill

Tyckte om Nice chap, not the owner, directed us to a spot with electric, near the fence away from a tight row of caravans on gravel pitches.

Tyckte inte om Felt more like Glastonbury with a fire on the ground nearby and gathering with noise later than advised. Caravans close together. Here’s the pain. “Paid via Pitch up” only to discover we hadn’t paid in full. Polite message from female owner to this effect but we explained we were unable to access bank accounts due to poor signal. Phoned the messager who advised we could pay as soon as we had signal. Next, nasty message from Tony saying if we didn’t pay he’d sully our names and we’d never get a pitch up site again! Said we were absconders despite having made arrangements to pay once we had a signal.

Really kind and friendly staff and people who stay on the site.
Can walk to the local village and a couple of pubs from the site.
Small site so easy to navigate
covered washing up area
Close to local places of interest
Not commercialised and family run

Tyckte inte om Not a lot of space between plots, or communal space. This was fine for us, but just in case you want more space

Tyckte om Proximity to Cambridge and convenience of taking train into the city. Good dog walks nearby.

Tyckte inte om Site VERY overcrowded to the pint we could not have driven out of the site easily had we wanted to. It would also have been a struggle for emergency services to enter. Pitches were too close. Electricity cables were being split at multiple points. It was the weekend of the Duxford Airshow and it felt as though the owners were being greedy and cramming as many vans and tents onto the site as they could. This resulted in the facilities being inadequate. Water pressure at washing up point was too low and there was little if any hot water there. Very close to A10 which is a busy main road so there was road noise, this did not disturb us. Owner was empathetic to concerns about space and we were fortunate to be put on a more spacious pitch, the same cannot be said of his wife however. She was dismissive of our concerns.

Tyckte om Very friendly hosts, large quiet field with choice of placing. Although no flat pitches it is possible to position so van is level. Pub serves pizzas and also brew their own very palatable beer.

Tyckte om The location, about a mile from Shrepretstation, 15min. walk along the river Shep. From there a short trainride to Cambridge. Basic but clean sanitary facilities.

Tyckte inte om On arrival, at first no pitch available for us. Although we had a confirmed reservation from Pitchup. The very friendly lady of the campsite managed to find a good place for us. She blamed Pitchup for the miscommunication.

Tyckte om Friendly hosts with lovely clean facilities. Easy access to two great local pubs and only a 20 minute walk to the train station for quick access into Cambridge

Tyckte inte om Felt a bit cramped space wise. But of course it was August so understandably very busy.
