First of all I don't know if it was good for families as we were two people in our 70's and didn't see many children. There was road noise and there was noise from a sports field, but not invasive. The weather for our four day visit deteriorated through our stay and we were very grateful for a good clean warm toilet/shower block with always plenty of hot water. An added bonus for us free bus pass people was the bus stop just a little way from the camp site to the Cambridge centre. We enjoyed our stay and should we want to visit the area again, we would definitely use this campsite.
