 Thee site is easy to find, but access road narrow with speed bumps so go slowly.
The staff were friendly and helpful allowing us as choice of pitches, as it was quiet.
It is large with grass and hard standings all flat.
Facilities nice and clean with good showers.
There is some road noise as it's not far from the M11. You get ambulance. Sirens as the large Addenbrook hospital is close.
It's a short walk to the bus stop with frequent services into Cambridge.
Ely is not far away, worth a visit too.

Stopped here for two nights on our way to the Twinwood Festival as I wanted to visit the IWM at Duxford.
Not the easiest of sites to find at first it being at the end of a small road with some biggish speed humps- not that you could speed!
Very friendly staff sorted us a handy pitch but it wasn't that busy tbh.
The whole site is very flat so most pitches were a much of a muchness and we chose one handy for the toilet and shower block. These were very clean as per the usual C&CC standard.
The shop had most things you would need and the only down side was that there was not really a very good information set up with just an A4 loose leaf book with basic information on a shelf in a covered walkway affair at the side of the toilet block.
I was looking for some leaflets on Duxford and other things around the area but there were none.
As this was our first stopping visit to this area and site a two nights stop was not enough but we will return.

A lovely site very convenient for the bus into Cambridge or Saffron Walden, but spoilt by a horrible smell from behind the trees on adjacent land. (The site is down a lane called Cabbage Moor and the smell was like cooked cabbage!). We spoke to the warden who told us other campers had complained & the C&CC had reported the problem to the environmental agency.
If it wasn’t for the smell, it would be an almost perfect site, spacious flat pitches, clean heated loos & showers, convenient for the buses and a local convenience store, both within 5mins walking distance.
Sorry to have to give this such a low overall rating. If it wasn’t for the smell, I would be awarding it 9/10

A busy site, facilities very good, but it is just a large grassy field. Bus stop into the city is a 10 minute walk and the city is very busy, especially with tourists.
Visit The Eagle Pub, if you haven't heard of it, you'll understand as soon as you go in. Great meals there and the choice of beer was great.
Visit Duxford which is only 15 mins away, well worth it and they put on a good show for you.

Visited again after a gap of five years and really enjoyed it.
On arrival and throughout our time there the site mangers were warm and friendly.
We were given a choice of pitches and chose one nearer to the facilities. The facilities, needless to say, were spotless and warm.
The site is level and has a mixture of grass pitches and hard standings. Some of the grass pitches were being closed during the time we were there.
The site Wifi was quite good whilst we were there even though there was a high occupancy. There was no issue with mobile or TV signal.
There are no recycling facilities on site and all rubbish goes into the same bins. There is a helpful opener to indicate which bin to use.
There are regular buses into Cambridge from the stop close to the site.
Granchester is not very far away and some on site walked to it.
Duxford Museum is about four miles away and easily fils a day.
All this for approximately £25 per night (it would have been less but our stay included two weekends).

First time on this site.
A lovely welcome from warden and facilities spotless.
Dog walk through little wooded area on site was very handy.
Look forward to returning for a longer stay.

Lovely clean and friendly place, nicely spread out, wifi not so good.
Quite expensive if you are not a member. With our membership we paid £35 for one night.
Plenty good golf course within driving distance.
Will go back again.

Absolutely fantastic, great location, clean, and brilliant staff.
They couldn’t have done more to make sure the site was clean and everyone was happy.
We stayed for Cambridge folk festival which was a perfect location.

Large open field with hard standing and grass pitches. Plenty of space between.
Easy to catch a bus into Cambridge although this does take around 25 minutes to travel to 3 miles into the city.
The facilities were very clean. modern with powerful showers and excellent waste disposal, washing up et cetera.

The location of the site is excellent for trips into Cambridge by bus (Stagecoach Route 7) Last bus home is 22:50!. Alternatively take your bike and the cycle lanes into the city will have you there in a trice.
This is a very open site with little shelter, and the strong winds we experienced did make for a couple of night's disturbed sleep.
The staff team were extremely friendly and helpful, and did a marvellous job of keeping the facilities really clean, despite having to deal with blocked drains while we were there.
This is our third visit to the site, and we have found different things to do each time we've visited.
Museums and Architecture in the city centre, NT Trust properties close by, great walk along the river into Cambridge via Grantchester.
Fantastic selection of places to eat and drink in the city.

A very nice site with easy access from the M11 (less than 10 mins). Follow the directions given by the C&CC. The final turning Cabbage Moor is a bit hidden so slow down and look for the brown camping sign. Drive slowly down Cabbage Moor as there are a lot of speed bumps.
On arrival we were greeted by a friendly warden then another showed us to our pitch. They were putting everybody over the far side by the high hedge to give protection from the high winds that were due. This was very sensible because it did get very windy.
The site has one large facilities block and a couple of waste and water points. There is a mixture of hardstanding and grass pitches but there are no fully serviced pitches.
The site is very flat and open and in an urban environment but it was very quiet and despite it being close the M11 is only a background murmur at night and not a problem.
Access to Cambridge is easy using the Number 7 bus the stop being close to the site on the main road. It goes round the houses a bit to serve the hospitals and takes about 25 mins. In Cambridge your choice of pubs, bars, restaurants and cafés is endless.
If you walk out of the site and turn left towards Great Shelford there is a large Garden Centre with a decent café. We did not have time to walk down to Great Shelford perhaps next time but we were told there are a couple of good pubs in the village.
Overall a pleasant short stay and we would definitely return at some point perhaps in the warmer months next time.

Site is very clean and facilities spot on.
Wardens need to lighten up as I don’t think they know how to smile.
Only one lady warden and she was very amenable.

We have visited this site numeroud times over the last 9 years finding it better than the Cherry Hinton site.
The wardens are always friendly and very helpful if needed. The site is always immaculate and well kept.
Lots of easy bike rides from the site including into the city.
Due to Covid the site was very busy far busier than normal but still had a pleasant time.
We will be back again and again.
