We really enjoyed this site,the location is very good with a brilliant bus service into Cambridge,but if you are so inclined,a 45 minute walk is a good option.I was surprised to find the hard standing could only be accessed after crossing the grass from the road,that's fine providing the grass doesn't cut up too much.No complaints otherwise though,we will certainly return.

Beware which pitch you choose..

Due to the way the pitches are layed out there are several meters of grass leading from the road before you reach the hardstanding of your pitch. I was told that due to the site being an area of special scientific interest they were not able to tarmac from pitch to the road..which seems a crazy idea particular in the winter. My car got stuck on the grass and caused a real mess and I noted that other pitches were turning brown and muddy... Especially with children, the last thing you want is a trail of mud leading up the caravan steps. We were lucky; we switched pitches after finding the remaining free pitch which had direct access from the road without the need to go "off road". Other than that a very quiet, clean site and ideal for Cambridge, Duxford Imperial war Museum (well worth a visit!!) and only an hour into London by car. Parking all day for £11 off Edgeware road near Marble Arch. We did think of getting the train but the prices were ridiculus... No play area for the kids but that didnt worry ours as they played out safely on their bikes.

First Time

Very pleasant winter visit. Bit muddy round our pitch due to very heavy rain but loved the layout of the site. Facilities excellent as always and pleasant, helpful wardens. Location excellent for bus travel into Cambridge and only very short walk to pub with very good food at the end of the road. Couldn't fault it. We will be back.

Muddy pitches

First time at Cherry Hinton & doubtful we will return. Pitches are described as hard standing but it is only the pitch the caravan stands on that is hard standing. The grass between the road and pitch was very muddy, so the information was misleading. Pitches are small, our single axle van only just fitted, and not up to usual standard of the caravan club. Having said that it was easy to get into Cambridge on the bus. For a winter site not what I was expecting.

Great site. Very well kept by wardens who were very helpful on arrival. Good location for visiting Cambridge and the surrounding area. One of the best CC sites I have visited.

It was quite boggy on some of the pitches due to the weather, the wardens had coned them off and you could see where some people had churned up the grass which was a shame for them. I think in winter it's probably best to stick to the hard standing. But great facilities, the late arrivals has plenty of space and looks absolutely fine, not that we had to us it. Usually high standard of toilet facilities that you expect. There is some noise in the evening that went on until the early hours but only a problem if you are very sensitive to noise, I think. It is in a quarry so some pitches have blind spots to phone and satellite if that's important to you. Absolutely no complaints from our visit.

We were booked in for the weekend and had every intention of arriving before 8 on the Friday evening but the traffic put paid to that. Refreshingly we were able to park up just outside the barriers and still make use of an electric hook-up. Even better, the warden waived the pitch fee for that night as we couldn't get onto the site proper. The toilet block was impeccable, the grounds were very well maintained, the wardens went out of their way to be helpful and on the whole the site was peaceful - a little traffic noise (generally screened well by the trees) and a bit of muffled bass from an off-site party hence dropping the one point (I would have gone half if I could). We could hear some football going on in the distance but that was only during the day and didn't detract from an otherwise peaceful stay. The site is brilliantly placed for the bus journey in/out of Cambridge (can't fault £4.00 for a full day ticket). I've been camping/motorhoming for well over 20 years now and this place has to rank amongst one of the best sites I have been on! We will definitely be back.

We have just spent 5 nights at Cherry Hinton Caravan Club Site. Everything was as would like it. The facilities were first class, warm and clean. The wardens were really pleasant, kind and helpful. The location of the site for Cambridge both for walking, cycling and bus route is ideal, and Cherry Hinton has everything to provide for any needs. Will definitely return

Good visit for Cambridge

Spent four nights here in January. Good for visiting Cambridge by bus. Visited Kings College Chapel and Fitzwilliam Museum both very good. City good for shopping. Went out on bus also to American War Cemetery. Very interesting visitor centre there. Be warned though, service buses do not stop outside cemetery for return journey. Quite a walk back down main road to nearest stop. Footpath ok. Site up to normal high Caravan Club standards, staff, cleanliness, showers etc.
