Why stay here ...

Grafham Water Club Site is a peaceful, six acre oasis where you can relax and unwind. Located a mere 0.5 mile west of picturesque Grafham village in Huntingdon, the caravan park is ideal those who enjoy a slow wander in charming settings. It is also a short walk to Grafham Water, popular as an international centre for trout fishing, windsurfing and major sailing events. 

Boasting green, level pitches and a children's play area, Grafham Water Club Site also has at its centre a 350-year old cottage, once owned by the Oliver Cromwell family. Part of the moat that surrounded the estate still exists, providing an excellent haven for local wildlife, especially our family of ducks. For those who like some energetic fun, cycling, horse riding, tennis, golf and carting are just some of the activities near the caravan site to keep you entertained. For those interested in history, The nearby Imperial War Museum, Duxford Air Museum, is well worth a visit.

There is now a community run village shop in Grafham selling essentials and groceries.

The Club has taken the decision to close the swimming pool at Grafham Water Club site with immediate effect. We apologise for any inconvenience. The site still offers great facilities for energetic families, with Tourer Explorer activities, and a play area onsite. If you still need your water fix, Grafham Water is only 400m away from the site, and there are three family-friendly swimming pools within 10 miles of the site.

Where are the bins?

We have stayed at this site many times, only to find this time that the mini service areas for water, waste and bins no longer allows you to put rubbish in the bins as they have been removed. You have to use the main bin area which is some distance from the majority of pitches, so much so that if you have a mobility issue or are disabled, it is impossible to get rid of your rubbish and this makes life difficult when living in a small caravan/van as there is nowhere to store rubbish. I'm not sure why this decision has been taken but it is not in the interest of the members who have mobility problems or simply don't want to walk far with their rubbish if it's raining. This puts me off this otherwise great site which is well situated and quiet, except for a caravanner next to us leaving at 4.45am and waking us up whilst doing so. I think the wardens would do well to reinstate the bins to an otherwise pleasant site.

Comment from the Club

Many thanks for your review and we are really sorry to read that you had concerns about the bins on the site. We have forwarded your comments on to the site staff for their reference. We have also removed your second comment posted as a review, as it wasn't a review as such and you have already reviewed the site, however we have forwarded your comments to the site for their reference. Thank you for your feedback which we value. Please feel free to repost the information in the comments below. I have a copy of this if needed.

Walks, bikes,walks bikes and more

Only gave one tick for 'good for families' because it was a required field and we are not a family so haven't a clue. Children were at school so very quiet and I liked that, as said in other reviews it is nicely laid out, good clean facility block and three I believe disposal points but enough of the usual bla bla bla. Walking direct from the rear of the site onto the 'Three Shires Way' and various offshoots of bridleways and footpaths, at the entrance end of the site straight across the field gives you walking in the woods adjacent to the reservoir. We hired a couple of leccy bikes for 3 hours and did the reservoir cycle track, stopping off at the visitor centre at 'Perry' for lunch, really big helpings, good choice and reasonable prices. It's a paradise for both walkers and cyclists, definitely a return visit when we get our own leccy bikes after this first taster.

Nice site and great for dog walkers

Stayed two nights here last day of August and first day of September , for us it was our first stay here in our motorhome and it was ideal, we came as a couple with our dog. Wardens gave a friendly welcome , and the little reception had a stock of lots of items you may need. You are allowed to pick our own pitch, which is great , but if you are driving around the one way system looking and dont make your mind up first time round you have to get the warden to open the barrier to let you in again !! So maybe best to walk round first ! Site was clean , only one toilet/wash block but was well kept and plenty of space and good showers etc,, kids were still on holiday so there was quite a few there playing around the site but this didnt bother us , might bother others ! We parked near the wooden bridge , which was noisy when cars drove over it , but again not an issue. The main attraction of this site and why we will return , is the amount of places to walk the dog , there are fields accessed straight from the site , or you can walk across to Grafham Water , we walked for miles and our dog loved it (it probably helped that the weather was great) We will probably return again , easy access for us (40 mins away)

Enjoyed our stay

We stayed here over the Bank Holiday and enjoyed the site, Dawn and Carl the wardens were most helpful and have made the site look fantastic everywhere was well maintained and nothing was too much trouble. The only downfall was from the parents of uncontrolled children who let them run riot around the site with no regard for other peoples pitches and did not tell thier children not to use ball games on site as it states in the rules. I dont know if these were members or not but if they were all I can say is are the club attracting the right members. We would go back again, but out of school holidays
