Great all rounder

Our first time here but not the last. Spotless toilet blocks and probably the best we have seen on club sites. No litter anywhere. The surroundings are superb with plenty to do without leaving the area. Marvellous walks round the lakes with many birds and other wildlife to see. Also a geocachers paradise which suited us.

'Ferry' enjoyable

We have visited this site on a few occasions at different times of the year but still find plenty to do and see. The site is always very clean and tidy and congratulate the wardens on keeping a large site well presented. The Nene Valley Railway runs adjacent to the site and you will hear the whistle from the train as it travels to & from its destinations, the nearest station is on Ham Lane only 200 yards from the site entrance. Visit at the right time and there will be plenty of wildlife on the water as well as people enjoying the water sports available. Take your bikes and there is plenty of cycling around the area. In all a site with plenty to do and see, whether you are a couple or a family.

Excellent site

We loved our stay here. The staff were friendly and helpful, such a clean and tidy campsite, excellent toilet/shower block facilities, especially the baby bath for our 10 month old. Great location on the country park and we were impressed with the cycling routes as they went on forever. Will definitely visit again.

Fabulous Half Term Break

We stayed at this site during the half term school holiday. It is a really lovely site that is in an ideal location for families. Nene Park is within easy access & has lots to offer from great walks, children's playground, cycle routes, a mini railway & even a café. We walked from the site into Peterborough which only took us 1 hour walking at a normal pace, had a walk around the wonderful cathedral & the shopping centre. We were then able to catch a steam train back to Ferry Meadows which was lovely & the kids really enjoyed it. Facilities were clean and we did find the wardens very helpful. A fantastic site that we will visit again.

Half term break

We enjoyed our half term break at ferry meadows, staying for 4 nights here . The toilet block was cleaned to a high standard, i only found it dirty on one occasion but only because someone had had a talc explosion in one of the shower cubicles. We were only disapointed that we couldnt reserve our pitches, we were meeting up with our friends here, but they didnt arrive until the day after us,so we couldnt pitch together. The wardens were not very friendly or helpful on this matter. As much as the site is good, i do think that some of the rules sre a bit too strickt. I dont think we will be returning next year. After all we are camping and freedom is what its all about.

Playground Site

This was our second stay at Ferry Meadows, and on this occassion we experienced the same high standards of the facilities, tidiness of the site and the friendliness of the staff. As a mature couple with no young children travelling with us, we try to pitch up away from playground areas, to enjoy a quieter spot, leaving these free pitches free also for parents who wish to be near these facilities. However during our two stays we have been disturbed by children playing ball games near pitches and on this occasion runing around on the roadways of the site. Defeats the objective of having designated play areas surely and where are the responsible parents ensuring their children are safe? The ladies toilets were often strewn with toilet paper and unflushed toilets so either we have unsupervised children or badly behaved adults no respecting others. Not sure we will return unless it's during school term time. Shame a few spoil it for others.

Mutant rabbits

Just spent a very pleasant week here. As a site it's just like any other caravan club site, it's clean, ordered, sanitised, could be anywhere. The wardens are pleasant and welcoming as we expect of the CC. We first came here in 1978, for our first ever caravanning outing to what was then a new site and have been here many times since so we already knew of all the fabulous facilities and opportunities in the area.  Forgot about the rabbits though. They are numerous, brave and in some cases big! Terrified the poor dog!

Had a lovely break

We went in February 2015 just for a 4 night break and we were very impressed with the helpfulness of the staff, the cleanliness of the site in general and also the toilet and shower facilities which were excellent. It was half term so there were loads of children, all playing safely. We went for some excellent bike rides around Ferry Meadows and enjoyed the whole time there. There was some work going on just outside the site felling trees which woke us up quite early some days, it would perhaps have been nice to be warned of this when we arrived so that we could have picked a plot further away if we had wished. We enjoyed watching the local squirrels and rabbits feeding and playing, how much closer to nature can you get! Overall we had a great time and would definitely return.
