Gorgeous site,and highly recommended! Me and the wife and our 2 children visited in October and the facilitiesand surroundings can only be described as fantastic!Ideal for visiting the nearby town of Huntingdon and the city of Cambridge! Surrounded by a beautiful working watermill and river and a warm welcome in the local village pub.All the little cottages with thatched roofs made it look idyllic! Cant wait to get down there again in May!

We stayed here on the Easter week-end 2012. this is a lovely site. We loved the site it is situated in a beautiful village just outside Huntingdon, St Ives is only a few miles away. (a lovely town to walk around). The facilities are clean & modern as you would expect from the CC.(on NT property) if you enjoy walking there is plenty of scope for you. we  also enjoyed watching the boats go throught the locks. There are plenty of places to eat out locally, We found a lovely pub that allows dogs into the bar area (Fab Sunday Lunch).

The only negative I could find with this site is that barbed wire can be found in some of the hedge rows on site (warning notices present) which in itself is not a problem but do children read this when running around?

on the whole a great site and would gladly return again for a long week-end

This site looks absolutely idyllic.......we plan to visit this one later this year.    What a shame about some of the spelling and grammar............ your comments here...

This is a great site with an excellent shower block. You can walk into St Ives and also walk to 2 local pubs for an evening drink.  Houghton village is lovely with a well stocked village shop for all your supplies. If you are there during the season the mill (NT) is working on Sundays and you can buy the flour.

My husband lived in the village of Houghton Regis so it was a nostalgic visit for him visiting his old teenage haunts. The site is lovely and we would love to visit again but having bought a caravan with my retirement fund it rather a long pull from Devon.  We had a camper when we last visited.

Now we tend to explore the C L's of Devon and Cornwall, we have time of in October and am currently looking for somewhere different to go.

Club Together may not be an English or grammer lesson, but just because CC members wish to communicate with each other, by the written word, there is no reason whatsoever to encourage a lowering of the standards of our great English language.

You have been hoisted with your own petard sir, you look rather silly now!.

I agree.  We love this site.  First class facilities, very friendly and helpful wardens, lovely pubs within walking distance, a very pleasant walk into St.Ives and less than an hour away from home - what more could we ask!

yes a nice site,,,,,,,but a few things to be aware of.The pitches are not all level..many are situated in the lower part of an undulating field.So if you are unfortunate enough to have your awning in the dip..when it rains it will be full of water.So make sure you get..the awning on the higher side of the pitch.When you get there you will see what I mean.Some very nice walks,facilities are excellent and the ducks are many.
