Why stay here ...

Mound Lodge CL site is a secluded ¾ acre all grass site, situated alongside a plum orchard and woodland. It sits on top of a hill which offers stunning views of Peterborough to the East and rolling farmland to the North and South. We have easy access to and from the A1 (there is a junction that brings you straight into the village of Chesterton). Peterborough city centre is only 4 miles away and is served well by a bus route. The site is easily accessed from the A1. The site is level, and lawned.

There are a series of walks around the farm which are ideal for exercising dogs as well as taking in the views. The farm is also very close to The Green Wheel - a cycle route that surrounds Peterborough, enabling safe cycling into the city, as well as the beautiful Ferry Meadows Park and Nene Valley Steam Railway. 

There is a wide choice of places to eat, to suit all budgets, as well as a supermarket and Post Office in close proximity.

Paddy and Susannah are happy to advise on local amenities.

There is no electric car charging at this site.

GREAT cl

We stayed here for a one night stopover to break up the journey, but would have liked to stay longer. This is a very well kept site on a PYO farm. There was surprisingly little noise and surprisingly good views given the proximity to the A1 and Peterborough.

Stopover

Stayed here for one night to break journey on return from France. Lovely well kept site, plenty of room even if there are 5 units on site. Very handy from A1. Good welcome from Paddy. Will definitely make use of this as regular stopover. Easy booking by e-mail.

Great CL

A fantastic experience - our first CL and we loved it. Paddy was great with arrangements, the PYO fruit farm was a hit with the kids and site was easy to find and very accessible.

Lovely and friendly site.

CL site pitches were full so stayed on one of the four hard standing pitches near the farmhouse and shop. Not as attractive a location as the CL site field but quiet and peaceful. Level pitch. Toilets. EHU. Water. Waste disposal. Lovely farm shop and PYO fruit. Friendly owners.

Wonderful quiet and calm CL

We emailed Paddy to check availability on the CL and his response was lovely and quick. On arrival we phoned as the board says to let him know we were there and talked through when and where we could pay. The site is beautifully quiet with lots of birds around... Show more

Unique place to visit!

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. As it is still impacted by the Covid 19 pandemic the Pick your Own wasn't open, but you could buy fruits from the farm shop. Being near the fruit orchards was lovely and a peaceful stroll around the outside of the orchards (after asking... Show more

mixed thoughts

Just arrived home having spent 3 nights on this CL can’t fault the site but we have a large motor home so wanted to use public transport. The site field is a good 10 to 15 minute walk to the road and involves negotiating a very steep driveway, so not... Show more

Excellent site, well worth a visit.

We have stayed on this site on a number of occasions, both in summer and in winter. The site is extremely close to Peterborough, less then 15 minutes to the city centre and the Cathedral, a short hop from the A1. But staying here, you could be in the middle... Show more
