Liked: Loved the setting and all the facilities provided. The kitchen does not have cooking facilities which we did not realise, but otherwise all that was supplied made our stay incredibly easy and comfortable. And the apple orchard pitch was absolutely lovely, so quiet and private and the owners could not have been more helpful. So many thanks for our lovely few days there.

Liked: So much we loved! Just returned from a 3 day stay using our own tent.
A delightful orchard, well planned campsite pitches, a perfect size of campsite, fresh apples, attentive hosts in Amy and Vicky, best showers I’ve ever had while camping in big enough bathrooms (hot whenever we used them) and clean compost toilets. Everything has been thought of. The kitchen hut was handy with a kettle and toaster and utensils - very well signed, but helpfully utensils didn’t feel too precious so we borrowed what we had forgotten without worrying about them around a toddler. We had great weather so didn’t use it much beyond kettle/ toaster/ fridge/ washing up but can see it would be handy on wet days. We tried their cider, their apple juice, their burgers, their ice lollies…. All excellent. They sell kindling and wood and it was cheapest we’ve found at various holiday/ campsites in a while. It felt genuinely eco friendly but also without being in your face about it. It was lovely to be on a working farm and go out horse and cow spotting and our toddler loved seeing a field in the distance being ploughed, watching a horse have its hooves trimmed, watching an airplane take off and having a ride in a wheelbarrow. We loved foraging for sloes and blackberries. Turns out the thump from an apple falling from a tree is a charming sound. It was honestly idyllic! A refreshing change of scene. We really hope to come again and have already recommended to friends.
Disliked: A few other camp guests had missed the memo that after 9pm it should be a little quieter. Maybe a reminder notice of this in the apple hut would help? But not a major problem and I understand the tension of not having too many signs! Probably not helped by us being earlier up with a toddler and a baby… who probably woke them up in turn 😂

I would definitely recommend for anyone wanting a quiet escape.

Liked: Lovely site. The pitches all had a good level of privacy as none of them overlooked each other. Nice and quiet (except for animals etc, which you'd expect in the country side!).
The toilet, shower and kitchen facilities were clean and well maintained.
Nice, friendly and helpful staff.
Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Lovely setting in orchard. Very clean and tidy. Quite a long walk to Chequers pub in Cottenham but worth it as food (wood fired pizza) very good.

Liked: Beautiful, really peaceful site in an apple orchard. Very spacious, private pitches. Really clean, hot showers. Liked having cars in a separate area away from pitches. Great location…lots to see and do near by. Local village handy…friendly pub (lovely pizza!), shop and fish and chip shop. Loved the firepit at each pitch and minimal light pollution for star watching. Friendly, efficient hosts. Excellent phone signal. For us a perfect campsite!
Disliked: Small wind turbine a little bit intrusive when very windy but Amy said to let her know and it could be turned off. Never became an issue and understand importance of green energy.
