Surprise

What a great surprise. Just a 2 night stay en route from Yorkshire back home to Devon. Expected an urban site but couldn't have been more wrong. Lakes, walks, log sculptures and a steam train. What a lovely paradise created from an industrial wasteland and so close to a city.

Abbey's playground

Abbey loved the new play area, very safe and very enjoyable. The site itself, was very clean, well kept and well managed. The peace and quiet is perfect, for a great sleep. Very recommended to all.

We want to stay longer

Once again we used Ferry Meadows as an overnight stop on our way north at the end of April and on our way south at the beginning of June. Once again we said to ourselves "next time we'll stay longer". A very clean tidy site with good pitches, smart facilities, friendly and helpful wardens. A lovely lake with good walks nearby. A Beafeater pub a short walk away.

BEWARE!

We return from this wonderful site but found it a stressful stay on pitch 183. This pitch is next to the wonderful new play park, no this is not a complaint about the noise from happy children playing on the updated equipment, it is a whinge at the Caravan club and the drivers who do not stick to club rules and drive at 5 miles per hour on site. Pitch 183 with caravan set up blocks the drivers view of children who run and bike across the road. Also right in front of this pitch is a turning right we noticed that drivers were not fully concentrating on the children but where to turn and pitch. We mentioned to the Warden there needs to be another speed bump put in just before this pitch to slow the traffic down. He was grateful we mentioned it and he put in our view for this to be added. We hope this has now been added. Wonderful site so much to do. Go to Dobbies not just a garden centre! All the family can enjoy a shopping day out even pets and fish to look at for the youngsters and their giant cakes yummy. There is a restaurant there too.

Great Site

First visit to this site. Being able to cycle free of traffic in such wonderful surroundings was excellent. Especially into the centre of  Peterborough. What a fantastic Cathedral. Bonus is the wide life on site, bit wet when we arrived, ducks swiming in the puddles on the road near our pitch, doesn't get better than that. Will certainly be going to Ferry Meadows again.

First Time but Not the Last!

Visited Ferry Meadows in the middle of May with our Son and daughter in law. This was a great site for them to cut their teeth on caravanning and as we are expecting our first Grand child in November, we look forward to returning with all three of them next year. The site is ideal for a family as the surrounding Nene Park is full of places to explore with the children and very educational, but at the same time a great place for adults to relax or exercise as much or as little as you like. The wardens on reception were very welcoming and the site was of a high standard. We also have a Golden Retreiver which loved the walks round the Country Park and the odd swim in the lake!!. And if you are a train buff there are the steam train rides and pleasant walks to one of the many eateries where dogs are welcome. We tried the Boathouse Inn and wasn't disappointed. The site is well laid out with two sides East and West. The East being best for families with the new play area although there is one on the West too. Fish and Chip van on site 3 days of the week and just one thing you must like rabbits as its like Watership Down but that sealed it for me! ??

Blissful Week

We have stayed at Ferry Meadows three times before this break and we still find it a well kept site. No litter about, wardens come each day to empty the bins, glad to see that there is recycling bins here. Toilets and showers are kept clean and tidy. The Wardens are always smiling and happy and very helpful. The only concern that we have had each time we have been, is that the information room doesn't have many leaflets on what to do nearby. I looked up on the internet this time before we went and planned our week. We will defiently be going back most likely next year.

May 2016

Have stayed here several times great for walking and cycling this is a site we use when we want a relaxing break. Overall site not bad some water logged areas due to all the rain , lots of rabbis and magpies that came into awning after dog food which fun to watch. As always toilets,showers very clean. Wardens Friendly.Our only concern was children cycling at speed all around caravans which is dangerous think something needs to done before an accident occurs. Will we use this site again yes

Nice new play area

Of course Ferry Meadows is always fine. With many years of staying there, perhaps this year it was a bit unkempt. Around the bins etc. a need for a broom etc. and it was not as if the Wardens were busy !! New play area is fantastic for kids, really good excellent equipment and many kids enjoying it. One has to ask why two small patches of stone and concrete in a other wise soft play area !! Disappointing was the maintenance condition, clearly some powder spilt by kids but no attempt by Wardens to remove it or for that matter to litter pick (their kids after all) or to blow away the leaves etc. Again one wonders what the Wardens were doing. In saying that did not see one Warden on our (section) all week, we could have had a rave as they would never know. Come on Caravan Club at £28 a night a bit more effort from what appeared to be lazy wardens. O'h yes grass cutting, what's that?
