Very god site for Cambridge and surrounds

Three moans first: 1. Peace and quiet was disturbed every night of our stay by footballs being smashed against the wire fencing on the sports facility above the site. The noise went on until 10.00 p.m. every night. 2. The "Caution very hot water" signs in the washing up area told lies; the water was just about hot. 3. The open drain in the washing up area stank really badly when water was released from the sink. That's it for moans, everything else about the site was really good and we will certainly be reurning.

Love it

A really nice site with an unusual layout. The wardens will ask you to walk around first and choose your pitch before lifting the barrier. having now done this I see why, so many dead ends with tucked away pitches. As with all club sites, its a credit to those who maintain it, nice clean shower block/loos and other facilities. There is a little road noise and a school playing field adjacent the site. but neither were an issue. The village is a very short walk from the gate and seems to cater for all that you may need, including a Fish & Chip shop, Chinese and Indian restaurant as well as a pizza place. The site has its own small dog walks but you have the beautiful chalk pits across the road to explore as well as a small nature reserve. the bus service also looked to be very efficient with stops not far from the site entrance. Things to be aware of are : no arrivals before 1 pm. There isn't a lot local to see and do apart from Cambridge which hasn't a lot offer. when leaving on your last day the traffic outside the gate can be backed up in to the village between 8 and 9.30 making a right turn with a caravan very difficult if you want to head for the M11 towards the M25. Will we go back, absolutely, we have already marked it down as a 2 day stop over when we head further up that side of the country next year.

Fantastic break

Visited on the busy August bank holiday weekend. Loved every minute of the break. Great welcome, great wardens, really helpful on the local information I needed and great about sorting out my guests visiting. The site was clean, perfectly kept, and everything I expect from a caravan club site. I got the bus into central Cambridge and it was so easy,

Great site

Our 2nd visit to Cherry Hinton in 3 years good to see the same friendly wardens. Cherry Hinton is a great little village with good pubs/Indian Restaurant/supermarket. Fab bus/cycle routes. We use it for Newmarket races. Some say there is road noise but we found it very quiet over the August BH and great weather. Will visit again....

Second visit since having a camper and won't be the last

We attended the Cambridge Folk Festival 2017 and it's a perfect site for peace/quiet and chilling out. The facilities under the management of Julia and Alan are immaculate. Extremely helpful wardens and always meet and greet with a smile. Excellent local pubs near by. Highly recommend the Red Lion in Cherry Hinton Village. Will definitely go back.

Great site close to Cambridge

Site is in a great location just a couple of miles away from Cambridge accessible by one of 2 bus routes. Helpful wardens providing useful information on check in. Great facilities as you would expect from a club site. We had pitch 7 down a steep slope that was in the shade but didn't bother us. We discovered the best Indian restaurant we have ever tried at the bottom of Cherry Hinton road - the Taj Tandoori. It must be good as it was almost full on a Monday evening! Really enjoyed visiting Cambridge again. We would defintely recommend this site for visiting Cambridge and the surrounding area. We will be back someday.

Quiet, great location but some pitches too shaded

Stayed here 4 nights, with no major issues. Usual great welcome, usual great facilities, coupled with a great location for getting into Cambridge via the reliable bus service close by. My only issue was that, of the 5 pitches left for us to choose from, none had much in the way of sun. I realise it's pot luck, and you get to choose from what's available but our pitch (7 I think) had very little in the way of direct sunshine. Not that much of an issue if your heading into Cambridge but sometimes its just nice to chill in the sun by the van and soak up some rays. Admittedly, the site is in quarry, but a walk around the park showed a lot of pitches with sunshine the majority of the day, alas, not ours. Having said that, it's still a great site and it ticks all the usual boxes for a great Caravan & Motorhome club site.

Good for visiting Cambridge

A 1 pm start at this site, small busy road outside and tight entry. A very friendly reception team, a bit different to other sites as you walk around give reception your pitch number then take your unit to where you have decided. The facilities are very good, showers better than normal hot and powerful. The pitches are a mixture, large and small, in the sun and very much in the shade. I feel as if some trees could do to be cut back to let the sun through..we have been twice, our first time in the sun really lovely, this time in the shade, dark and dismal quite depressing ...in the morning bright sun 18 degrees we had lights on and the heating!! But beautiful if you was in the sun. I know it's pot luck but we won't be back. The park and ride ...turn right out of the site about 5 mins, a pound to park all day, and maybe your free bus pass. Good for visiting Cambridge and the Duxford war museum.

Wonderful staff

We arrived ten minutes after the closing time to find the staff had waited for us, this was a lovely surprise as it saved us staying in the late arrivals pitch. We were given our pitch, the last one as the site was full, obviously it wasn't the best, but we were allowed to choose another one the following morning as people left. The staff were so kind and helpful with everything, the warden even running after us when we inadvertently drove off with a dog lead attached to the back of the Motorhome! The site was full of wildlife, we saw lovely birds, the robin family and their babies came really close to us for mealworms. The site is of special scientific interest and there was an abundance of wildflowers. The showers were clean and well maintained, the adapted shower was roomy and very easy to manage. The wardens do deserve a special mention, friendly kind and helpful. We will be returning.
