What customers say

A peaceful, roomy site with great staff, especially Colin. Lovely lake, plenty of fish, and tidy grounds. Facilities are basic but clean and functional. Some nettles and pub noise, but many plan to return.

Sean M.

Electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked Nice site with adequate clean facilities and great for a spot of fishing. Post office and local store across the road.

Very friendly hosts and other guests on the site. Certainly visit again.

Liked No

Disliked Yes

From the manager: Hi,

Everyone that I spoke to, including you, told me that everything was fine. I can't correct faults unless I am made aware of them.

Telling me one thing to my face and then writing a review like this helps nobody.

On previous Bank Holidays I have had over 30 pitches filled, with no-one complaining about space. This year there weren't even 20 pitches taken (my conscious decision). As I have 26 hookups I don't believe that you would have found a more spacious pitch over the August Bank Holiday.

Thanks for not coming back, I really appreciate it.

Yvonne K.

Electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked Neighbours were nice. Field was well tended.

Disliked Showers 🤢😡. NOT CLEAN. Going mouldy. Hot water took about 10 minutes to come through, then intermittent. Desperately tried to find somewhere else to stay so wouldn’t have to use the shower, but everywhere else full up due to Bank holiday. Shower block definitely needs demolishing and a new one building. Elsan point was disgusting with the “obvious” being smeared round the rough concrete enclosure. You could smell it before you got anywhere near it 🤮. We don’t fish, but lake/pond looked stagnant around the edges and not many access points due to severe overgrowth of grasses, etc. Other than fishing, not much to do nearby without travelling. Only wildlife we saw was rabbits. Will definitely not be going back. Photos of site very misleading until you get to the end of them and then some truth can be seen.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Your neighbours were your friends!

Neither of you liked it when you couldn't get your own way over making us move some Chinese customers further away from you!

I don't care what lies you want to spout, and I'm extremely pleased that you won't be coming back.

Electric grass motorhome pitch

Liked The site has everything you need.
The lakes are well kept with really clean pegs.
Liked the people that worked there, really friendly and extremely helpful.
Couldn't have asked for more

Disliked Could get WiFi and signal but it is dependent on who you are with.
I am BT (EE) and it wasn't the best.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your kind words.

I fully understand the frustration over mobile reception. It's particularly ironic that there's a mobile transmitter 50yds from the shower block. Just to rub salt in, I am also with EE, and I can't get reception from my own tower!!!

I will pass your comments on to Dave.

I look forward to seeing you again.

Very best regards

Local attractions

As it's the Fens, this is nicely level land around here, just the ticket for gentle walks and bike rides around the local area. As a first stop, amble or have a short pedal along to the Elizabethan Centre a third of a mile away, for bowls, badminton, a pool table or (and) nattering with locals over a cold pint. The local badminton team play most Mondays and Wednesdays and guests are most welcome to join in during their stay. By car, get along to Spalding for an extensive shopping session at the Springfield Shopping Outlet, followed by a wander and a rest around the Springfield Festival Gardens. Peterborough's well worth a day out too, for more shopping as well as strolls along the river, and Boston 40 minutes away is home to the 14th-century Boston Guildhall and a museum at the Maud Foster Tower Windmill.
