Had a superb few days away at Ferry Meadows. The site was kept very well and the wardens were superb. This is the first site we can honestly say is spot on. 10/10.
We visited for 5 nights with 2 grandchildren and a dog and could not fault the site , the proximity to the country park and to the steam train running into Peterborough made this a wonderful site for all of us . The wardens were so friendly and hard working and the showers and toilets were spotless . The site was very busy as it was school holidays but didn't seem over crowded as it is a really big area. There are two sides one has a great new play area and if you have children the wardens guide you to this side , the other is quieter and seemed to be populated by adults only .There is a Fish and chip van which visits the site but the food was not to our taste ,the daily visits by the ice cream van went down a treat though . All in all a wonderful site.
Our second visit to this site and no less impressed than we were on the first occasion. Our first visit was made 'off season' whereas it was very busy at the time of our latest visit. What did impress us was the fast and efficient way the staff dealt with new arrivals yet were still able to offer a very warm welcome. Although the site covers a big area and can be very busy it is laid out in such a way that, when pitched, you get the impression you are on just one of a series of smaller sites. The facilities up to the usual CC high standard. Being situated next to the Country Park it is ideal for nature lovers and walkers and it is a dog walker's paradise.
We love Ferry Meadows and stay every August with our granddaughters and they also love the site. We always stay on the east side as it is mostly families and usually pitch near the play area. This year we looked for a different area for a pitch as now the play area has been expanded it is very cramped and noisey. We found a lovely pitch and had plenty of room around the caravan for the girls to play. The girls were very happy apart from us saying you cannot play ball games around the caravan, which they refrained from doing. Our gripe is we tell our granddaughters not to play ball games around the caravans, only to see cricket, tennis and football games played where ever we looked. No wardens telling them to stop playing ball games like last years wardens. There is a football/ basket ball court and Ferry Meadows park, so why don't families use these facilities instead of playing right next to the caravans, as caravans are costly to repair. Please wardens put more signs up no ball games.
Stayed here for 2 days in our campervan during the last week. The wardens and staff are really welcoming and friendly and the site is peaceful and spotlessly clean. They have a well stocked shop and information about any events happening locally. Will definitely return if in the area again.
really loved this site. Lots of walks really safe, wished we had our bikes. nice pubs good food at the woodman near golf course about 15 mins walk from site was a bit muddy getting there but had really rained heavy during the night. Will def. be back here in the future. Wardens as ever brilliant.
Stayed the last week of July with 2 kids and 3 dogs. What a brill site. Cleanliness and friendliness 100%. Couldn't fault the staff there.
The ferry meadows park in excellent for walking round and lots of water sports and activities. Also the old steam trains which can take you to Peterborough or Nene Valley Railway even allow dogs for a £1. So can't complain. The Beefeater near the entrance allow dogs outside and we had the full menu options too. Lovely affordable food.
Had a really relaxing time. Would definitely recommend Ferry Meadows.
