Week at Ferry Meadows

My wife & I took 2 of our Grandchildren here last week. Due to our Grandchildren being quite young we decided to stay next to the play park,Great position for them but not so good for us due to the noise children make. What we have to say is this site is wonderful & immaculate. Friendly wardens good shower blocks. Great position,lovely country park on the doorstep,this is the 1st trip here for us & we will come here again. Nice good size pitches.

Second Visit

This was our second visit in 3 months, we arrived at noon and we were checked by security at the gate due to travellers in the area felt this was a great idea to ensure we were on the arrivals list, then another smooth check in and got the same sunny plot as last time (81), the site itself is great with all facilities upto club standards plus friendly wardens, for a big busy site it has the feel of complete peace and quiet, nearby park is great for walks and cycling, steam train is great for getting into Peterborough (£15 return for 3 people). Overall another enjoyable stay looking forward to staying again, thanks again to the club.

Lovely Time had by all

Just returned from here after a lovely week with our 3 girls and grandson. Been before so knew what to expect. The wardens were lovely and would stop and chat in between being busy on such a big site. The only bad thing were some other people walking their dogs and not picking up after them, and they don,t like it when you tell them either! TOTALLY not acceptable, we ended up with it on our carpet after a dog left his mess right at the back of our caravan!! Wont put us off this lovely site though.

First visit

Stayed here for 4 nights. Had a bit of trouble deciding which was the entrance. Sat nav said approaching on the right but our entrance was actually on the left. Security guard made sure we were in the right place. Its a massive campsite. Check in was quick and easy and friendly. We were given a choice of pitches and told where the quieter areas were. Once we had chosen our pitch I went back to let reception know and get our gate pass. All the facilities were explained fully and we could also order newspapers. TV reception was horrendous so we purchased an extra long aerial wire to plug into the box which worked perfectly and has proved useful on other sites since. We were there for the cycling and although it was busy getting through the nature reserve the cycling routes were amazing. Getting into town was all off road and very easy. Toilets, showers and washing up area were very clean considering the amount of people on site and the water was nice and hot. A fish and chip van came to site on Wednesday which was great as we had been out cycling all day and didn't want to cook. There are a couple of pubs within walking distance.We would definitely recommend this site and we would stay here again

2nd visit

This was our second visit to Ferry Meadows. A lovely site and very handy for the country park. Friendly wardens. Only slight worry I had was the number of dogs on site that were not on leads and just wandering around partially staffies (I know deed not breed). Had no problems but still was a little worried about having loose dogs around the baby. Otherwise a fab site.

very good site

Site was easy to access with no narrow lanes or gates to negotiate. Pitches were a good size, well laid out and facilities kept very clean. Great walks direct from the site and if you like steam trains you can go to station only yards away. We have stayed on two separate occasions in August and would happily go back. Only disappointment was paying for the poor quality of WIFI signal as neither of our mobile phones could get signal to use 3 network.

Not for us

Stayed for three nights in early August, whilst I expected the site to be busy with children it was a nightmare and I am amazed there were no accidents or nasty incidents as far as I know. Each time we arrived having been out for the day there were groups of children, some very young indeed riding their bikes on the roads around the site, many the wrong way on the one way system. It was very unnerving having to negotiate the site roads as these riders appeared to be coming from any angle at breakneck speed on and over the roads with no sense of danger. All without apparent parental supervision or control During the evenings (we were out in the day) there were large groups of children playing and hanging around the toilet block, again unsupervised by anyone. On arrival on our last evening moving very slowly to avoid the kamikaze child cyclists a very loud BANG of the side of our motorhome. On stoping and investigation I found it was caused by the large football a teenager had been kicking his pal on the other side of the road, he obviously could not be bothered to pause as we passed. Luckily no damage but a foot or so either way and the impact would have smashed through a window. Throughout our stay we saw no apparent supervision of the children I describe although of course I understand they were a minority of the children on the site but because it was so busy it seemed a total fee for all. During our visit I saw no wardens/site staff attempting to take control to prevent obvious danger to the children or ask their parents to do so either in respect of bike riding or playing around toilet blocks. Having said all that the site was well maintained with clean facilities. Its in a great location for the country park and I suppose thats the reason for so many children. It may be different at no so busy periods but anyone looking for a little sanity and peace and quite should go elsewhere. Especially at around £28 a night.
