As a former resident of Peterborough I was very familiar with Nene Park, but this was the first time we have visited the site. We received a very warm welcome despite the fact that we had arrived at a busy time. The site is very convenient for all the country park facilities and we recommend both the cafe and restaurant, both of which are a reasonable walk from the site.
The site itself is well up to the standards that we have come to expect from club sites.
Good to be back

Ferry meadows
Good clean site with very friendly people, nice idea selling essential items at reception. Near park good for walking dogs.
Only problem is hum in background from road traffic
Lovely Site and helpful wardens
Very pleasant stay, the wardens were very pleasant and particularly helpful.
The fish and chip van was very good and competitively priced. The toilet blocks were the standard caravan club issue always clean and no queues for the showers..
The motorhome waste water disposal was on a one way road and to empty our water we had to travel the wrong way to line up with the grid.
Although there is a lovely country park directly next to the site I would like to see a dog walk on site.
There are quite a lot of grass pitches on this site and I feel it would benefit from more hard standings being made.
Enjoyed our stay
We enjoy going to this site now been 3 times. The site is very clean and tidy and well looked after. Lots of walks through the parks and able to cycling without going on the roads.
5th Visit and still loving it.
This site is conveniently located for everyone to enjoy the countryside, as it is bang in the middle of Nene Valley Park, great for dog walks and families as it has numerous lakes and BBQ points for everyone to enjoy. The Site itself is clean and can accommodate the largest of vehicles all within close proximity to the toilets and service points. I am now waiting for the bookings to open up for next year so we can book again, overall this site in my opinion is one of the best that the Caravan Club has to offer.
Good site, a few things to watch out for
Basics, on which one depends, are fine - a clean, well-organised site next door to the Nene Country Park with relatively easy access to the city and its not-to-be-missed, magnificent cathedral. Much to recommend, particularly the lay-out which makes a big site seem quiet and cosy. Better lighting of the driveways would help elderly people like us going back and forth on foot in the dark. And while this in no way detracts from the very good standard of the site, the directions given for walking to shops and buses are a tad difficult to fathom. Maybe that was our inadequacy - but local residents who helped us out said the directions were far from clear. Having tried to follow directions to Tesco Express, I ended up at Londis! It was easier to find one's way across the desert in a conflict 20 years ago than to find the bus stop to the city - which is the same as the one from the city. As there are stops on both sides of the road, it is a bit challenging till a helpful local tells you that one stop is out of use!
Simply a nice place to be
We love this site, perfect for a stroll round and even better for a nice bike ride. Nene valley country park is lovely. Make sure you read your welcome as there are quite a few discounts to had at local pubs and attractions.
We love this site and hope to be back soon.
Excellent weekend
Plenty of location options hard and soft standings. Very good facilities. Ideal area for walking, cycling, water sports and family and group gatherings. Adjacent to Nene valley railway. Easy access to Peterborough and local villages. Very good road network for access.

Stayed 3 days, and each day we took our dogs on 3 different walks around the lakes, stunning beautiful area, the site was very spacious and the wardens very friendly, definitely going back soon:-)
