Perfect for Ferry Meadows

This site is perfect for visiting Ferry Meadows without the expense of the CAMC fees. Having bikes the cycle ride to Ferry Meadows was very straight forward. NCN12 runs directly from the campsite and goes all the way to the outskirts of Peterborough where it meets up with the vast array of cycle paths around the city. We didn't venture into Peterborough as we have visited the city many times. We also followed the NCN12 to Huntingdon. Unfortunately the free Cromwell Museum is closed on Mondays. There wasn't an awful lot to see in the town, but the cycle ride there and back took us through some lovely villages. Set up on our arrival at the site was easy. We were met by the owner who directed us to our pitch (one of the two at the top of the field). The water point is before you get into the camping field, so being a motorhome we filled up before we pitched up. We were on a slight slope - but were able to use our blocks. Being adjacent to a hedge we had numerous small birds flitting about in the hedgerows, plus flocks of redwings in the fields. We also spotted a couple of Red Kites flying overhead. Just down the main road from the site is a public footpath across the fields. We did a 4 mile looped walk on our first day which was lovely. We cycled into Stilton one evening for a meal in The Talbot. The food was excellent and the atmosphere was great - especially as the Calcutta Cup was on the TV. My nation won! The village is just over a mile away, and as the main road isn't that busy we felt perfectly safe cycling there and back. The site is situated not too far off the A1. We only JUST heard the distant rumble of traffic. I suppose it depends on the wind direction. All in all we enjoyed our stay here.
