One of our many return visits to Ferry Meadows over the years. In fact, it was the first campsite we ever visited about 40 years ago almost to the day! We were on the West site which is predominantly hardstandings and is open all year but the section across the road was still closed at the time of our stay. Its four years since our last stay and it was disappointing that a more modern open grill motorhome waste point had still not been installed in this section of the site. There is space at the end of the toilet block for a drive through emptying point. The current waste point is almost unusable  because of its position as you can't get your drain tap over the drain without blocking the road. This is the first site we have been on with the dual white peg system. Personally, I had no problems with pitching correctly using one peg but I assume there have been issues. A casual observation from walking around the site seems to suggest that it seems to be helping. I was surprised that there was nothing for sale in reception, beyond gas and toilet chemicals. If you run out of milk you have a good mile to walk to the nearest shop! I also clearly misjudged the start of the Easter holidays as the found the site at £31 a night quite expensive with Good Friday being 10 days away! On the plus side Ferry Meadows has lots to do in the immediate area around the site. The Nene Park provides plenty of walking and cycling. Also, near to the site is the Nene Valley Railway, check online for timetable information. Just a bit further on a nice Garden Centre and next door a Beefeater Restaurant.
