 Have just returned from a weeks stay at Grafham Water.
The site itself is wonderful. Very quiet and well maintained.
Its only a 10 minute walk to Grafham Water across the fields, where there is a cafe, children's play area and walks.
We did have an issue with our pitch flooding, as we were on the corner of the downhill slop, but I do feel this was mainly due to the vast amount of rainfall in a short space of time, so if wet conditions are predicted, avoid pitch 14!
The fish & chip van comes each Friday and we found the portions to be a little on the small side and at £5 each a little pricey.
The road on the approach to the site is quite narrow, which isn't a problem unless you arrive early and vans are leaving at the same time. But its only a few hundred yards long.

We used this site at short notice due to the 'National' being cancelled, being a bank holiday and the jubilee we were put in the paddock, this included a double family in a tent and a caravan with a barking dog and children on bikes. To be fair they did all pitch up in the furthest corner!
The weather turned wet and cold, this caused the whole fields electrics to trip 5 times on the Saturday and sixteen times on the Sunday with no power all Sunday night! It now transpires this was the first time the field had seen 16 units! There should be 10amp supply but it seems it cannot cope with more than 4 or 5 units drawing this or a lesser amount - be aware!
We gave up trying to watch the river pageant after 16 power cuts and left a day early!
The toilets and showers are semi permanent/ex portable units, clean but not quite CC standards!
The wardens did all they could including calling out an electrical on both days, the main site looks very neat & tidy, but as others have said now has many more pitches than when it was a lovely little private site - I guess that's called progress!
Will we stay here again? Yes! (Nice site, helpful wardens, very clean)
Will we stay if only offered the paddock? No chance!
After complaining to HO we were sent two one night vouchers, which seem barely adequate when you consider we had hardly any electric, missed the pageant and lost a night!

We turned up unbooked and they found us a hardstanding pitch. As it was after 5pm pleasantly surprised that wardens were happy to book us in and take payment etc. Very friendly and helpful wardens - you couldn't ask for more.
The site is wonderful, really beautifully kept, big hard standing pitches and well set out with plenty of space. Facilities are top notch as you expect with CC.
A large pond in the middle of the site but its fenced off so no worries for smaller people. The site is very peaceful except for the sounds of birds.
Site is well placed for walking and biking around Grafton Water. Less then 5 minutes drive to the visitor centre which has miles of flat off road cycle track around the reservoir.
The only fault for us was we could only stay one night as they were fully booked! our fault not theirs as we hadnt booked. We paid £13. 50 for 2 adults with ehu - £4 cheaper than the closest CC site and a real bargain for such a great site.
We will use again and highly recommend this site, one of the best CC we have used.

1st class site as we come to expect from a caravan club site, one of the cleanest visited, with all your usual facilities plus a resident owl who does make her self heard.
A good central location for surrounding areas and only a mile away from Grafham water which is good for walks and biking round, and also not to far away from lots of local towns and villages.
Hard standing pitched are of a good size, with a booster aerial attached to the electric point, it's recommended that you bring one with you because it will be cheaper.
Would we return definitely top site very friendly and helpful staff who we have met before when stopping in the lakes so that was a nice surprise.

This is a great site. Well kept, spotlessly clean and excellent showers, toilets etc.
The outdoor swimming pool is fantastic for the kids in the summer. If you like bicycle riding as a family then this is the place for some great riding.
A small negative is that its a small site and not overly spacious but everything else makes up for the lack of space.
Fish and chip van turns up on Friday nights which is great and the wardens are very friendly and will go out of their way to help with anything.

Visited in holidays & there was several downpours, we'd taken a grass pitch & our groundsheet in the awning had flooded! First class facilities, we pitched right next to the kids play area which was then next to the shower block. Cleanliness was top notch. A few things were not available at the play area, but it was a good central area for kids to meet at. Swimming was superb & as it was heated we swam every day (bands allocated for an hour swim) even if showering! Lifeguards were very hot on discipline in the pool which was slightly aggravating. I'd had the impression there was cycling around the water but this isn't possible with kids on stabilisers & can only do on the country lanes near the site. Site not near any supermarkets so have to travel approx 15 in car to get to the nearest one. Only annoying point was a bridge at one side of the site that cars/caravans had to travel over to exit. It was very noisy as it was made of planks of wood but kids obviously loved the noise & frequently went over it as part of a cycle track loop. Did love the ducks coming from the pond in the morning wanting some 'breakfast'! Good ol Caravan Club for consistent facilities. This was the site that had previously had an accident with a child colliding with a tourer so wardens were very hot on children cycling with helmets in correct direction not fast, which was fair enough.

Location:
Well located within easy walking distance of the village of Grafham, this site is an excellent base for exploring the area. Nice lakeside walk and cycle routes from the site. The site is very regimented: staff very inflexible and often rude and condescending.
Facilities:
The toilet and shower facilities are superb, with large, modern shower cubicles, a motorhome service point, well stocked shop and outdoor pool.
Prices:
We paid £22 (July) per night for motorhome with two people and electricity. Good value for facilities and location.

We had a great time at this site, which is really suited to families.
The play area is quite small but does allow children to meet up and make friends. The roads on site are tarmac which provided a great surface for children to bike on and the site was generally very busy during half-term with kids basically running/biking around enjoying themselves.
The pool is very well maintained, we only had to wait about 10 mins one day as the number of users is limited by the lifeguard.
The whole site is very well maintained and the wardens were the best we have meet on a Caravan Club site, only because we needed their help a couple of times with a flat battery/ripped awning and you really got the impression nothing was too much trouble for them!
The hardstanding pitches are of a good size, the grass pitches appeared smaller and if you have a big van, awning and car then it may feel a little cramped compared to other CC club sites but overall I would say that they are adequate.
The American Eagle Owl was in residence and one day was perched in full view half way up a tree near the old fenced off moat, our children made 'owl noises' and each time it replied!
We biked round Grafham Water, which was quite an interesting ride as the route does not hug the side of the reservoir and is quite hilly in parts.
There are lots of footpaths/bridleways directly from the site, we took the Three Shires Way to Spaldwick (pub/shop) for another enjoyable day-out.
Grafham itself has a playing field with a fenced off hardcourt with football goals which we used everyday, approx a 5 min bike ride away. There is also a much bigger play park on the way.
Overall a nice place too stay for a short break and excellent value & another superb Caravan Club site.

Just returned from a bank holiday stay at this site. The wardens were lovely and the toilet block was immaculate, although the door closers need attention as they bang shut constantly.
We were lucky enough to get a hardstanding pitch, which we found very easy to pitch on. We heard the owl at night, but unfortunately did not see it.
The site is great but we are still not used to the system of not being able to book an actual pitch. The road to the site is little more than single track, so if you arrive before 12 pm you are likely to meet a caravan coming towards you!
We went to Huntingdon, which is a lovely town and we parked opposite Portholme meadow and walked into the town.
We spent a glorious day with our picnic at Grafham Water itself; we drove there as we had chairs, windbreak and picnic, but we had walked there very easily from the site previously.

When we visited, the grass pitches were not being used so the site was quieter than normal. We were welcomed very warmly by the wardens who proved to be helpful and informative. The pitches are tight but if you aren't using an awning it's no problem. The circular path round the reservoir goes right past the door - ideal for bikes, walkers and dogs! The highlight of our stay was the daily visit of an enormous American horned owl which lives in trees around the site and who was happy to pose for photos up a tree right in the middle of the site! Avoid pubs in Buckden - very pricey. There are, however loads of nice pubs in nearby villages.
