Rookery Waters

Why stay here ...

The 5 pitch CL site is situated in an enclosed and peaceful location, within the 5 lake fishery, Rookery Waters. We first opened in 2003 to help diversify our small arable and beef farm. Since then we have complimented the existing environment by planting hundreds of trees, miles of hedging and creating reed bed conservation areas around the fishery and on the 230 acre farm. Our reed bed next to the CL is registered with the British Trust for Ornithology and has had a monthly bird count for the last three years.

The nearest village, Pidley, is 2 miles and it is 8 miles to the historic market town of St Ives.

Each caravan/motorhome pitch has a hard, level gravel standing with large grass area, with ample room for a car and awning. There is a pedestal electric hook-up with light and fresh water supply. The site overlooks the well-established Rook Lake and stunning views of the countryside.

There are miles of bridle and foot paths for walking and cycling. Next to the site is a conservation reed bed wetland area, where many rare birds come for the summer to breed. Well behaved dogs are welcome. Please be respectful of the site and keep your dog under close supervision.
