Great Site

Great site. The man who was on reception when we arrived was extremely friendly and helpful - he even lent us his cycling map of Cambridge! The site is peaceful and friendly, and I like the way it has lots of little area's, so you're not all in one big square, it makes it more natural and interesting - it's like you're in the country, when in fact you are really only minutes from the hustle and bustle of Cambridge centre. The cleanliness is second to none, the toilets and showers are always clean, and there's no litter or rubbish anywhere, not even near the recycling. There are plenty of waste, recycling and water stations, which is great, so no queuing up anywhere. All in all, a great site and a big thumbs up.

An Unusual Site

A busy site with good facilities and well located. It appears to be used by regulars who knew exactly where they wanted to pitch. We were allocated the last remaining pitch on arrival but had no problem with it and enjoyed our week's stay here. I suspect that some people with mobility problems would struggle with the steep inclines into the various areas en route to and from the facilities block. I was as fit as a racing snake after a week of traipsing up and down to the service point or further to do washing up, shower, etc! Not the most sociable of sites due to the design of the pitches being tucked into various areas. I also found the radio was a definite conversation killer in the dish washing area, where I usually enjoy finding out where people have been or going to, but it was great in the morning whilst having a shower. Loads of places to visit - Wicken Fen is fabulous for bird watching; Ely Cathedral just awesome; Cambridge was interesting and well worth a visit. Robin Hood pub was good value and very good food. Not sure if I would return here but we did enjoy our stay.

Exceptional Help

My wife and I arrived at Cherry Hinton after a very long drive up from the south of France heading for Dundee Scotland, having just received news of a family bereavement. The site was full but the relief warden on hearing of our situation immediately made a place in the late arrivals area available. She was extremely helpful and understanding and made a very difficult situation a little easier to bear. Our heartfelt thanks go to the relief warden for her kindness and understanding.

One of the best sites

I would recommend this site to anyone, the shower and toilet block are probably the best I have been in. The staff are first class and a credit to the caravan club, very helpful and friendly. If I have to find a fault with the site, some of the plots are in the shade and don't get much sun. I will definitely be back

Adequate

Stayed at Cherry Hinton over the Whit Bank Holiday. The site facilities are all that you would expect from a Club site - but the site itself doesn't do it for me. The Cul-de-Sac layout was not to my liking. I like to be able to walk around a site to walk off my dinner (and the wine that goes with it). I couldn't do that here. Oh, yes, the noise of the birds at 04.00 is annoying - but not something that the Club can, or should, do anything about. Cambridge itself is well worth a visit - and you must go see the American Memorial Cemetery.

What a gem

From the moment you arrive the wardens are so friendly you cant help to be relaxed, the site is spotless and the music in the shower block is a must in all club sites. So handy for Cambridge the number C1 or C3 buses run eavery ten minutes within five minutes walk from the site return £4-10 salso accept gold cards so leave your cars behind. A great pub for food again only 5 minutes walk, and YES we will be back from Buxton

Ideal for Visiting Cambridge

Impressed with the cleanliness of the site and friendliness of the staff, enjoyed our four night stay with easy access via the bus into Cambridge, bus stop only five min walk from site. Local pub/restaurants within a five min walk if needed, would strongly recommend the site to members.

Lovely site

Just returned from a 5 night stay. The site was lovely and only dropped a mark due to a little noise from the sports facility next door. This, however, would not stop us from returning. The wardens were very pleasant and helpful and kept the facilities spotless. Good info available and very convenient for public transport to Cambridge. Don't have children so play area not an issue. We did however notice a large playground in Cherry Hinton and there was lots of parkland in Cambridge to have some playtime. Thanks wardens for a great stay.

Excellent Site For Cambridge

We really enjoyed our recent stay here. We had an open, sunny pitch. When you arrive, strictly after 1pm, they allow you in one at a time, on foot, to choose your pitch. This is because most of the pitches are down blind alleys. Once you have chosen and told the wardens, the next person is allowed in. This process seemed to work very well and wasn't as slow as you might think.The wardens were very accommodating and allowed us to park our motorhome as we wished (we were on a pitch which was not really near anyone else). It's only 5 minutes walk to the bus stop- info on buses is helpfully printed on the back of the site plan. In the local pub, The Robin Hood (5 stars for food hygiene) we had a good meal, with good service. We were advised to book, even though it was a Wednesday. It was busy so we were glad we did. There is an interesting 20 minute or so walk around two very different parts of the old quarry, which is now a nature reserve. We will definitely return here.

Beautiful site

Stayed over Easter school holidays, and although site does not have a play park, the grandchildren (aged 8 and 6) loved this site. Lots of hidden nooks and crannies for them to explore, so allowing them to have freedom to explore and "make dens" It is handy for Cambridge, we used the Park and Ride, up the very narrow Lime Kiln Lane, to the right as you leave the site, but only about 1 mile away. There are also bus stops in Cherry Hinton, a short walk away. Close to shops and supermarkets and family friendly restaurants. Toilet facilities spotless, music in toilets (radio 2) restful to listen to. Wardens pleasant and helpful. Worst aspect is the narrow approach up Lime kiln Lane, where the cars zoom down at a terrific speed, narrow pavement down to main road, but you can cut through the nature reserve on opposite side of the road. Would definitely go back.
