The metallic clang of a gate closing echoes across open Cambridgeshire fenland as lapwings wheel overhead, their distinctive calls carrying on the breeze that sweeps these vast, level horizons. Wood smoke drifts from pitches on summer evenings when campfires are permitted, mingling with the earthy scent of working farmland.
This straightforward farm site suits campers, caravanners and campervan owners seeking an authentic taste of East Anglia's distinctive agricultural landscape. The Fens' enormous skies and ruler-flat terrain create a sense of space that's increasingly rare, with market towns and the cathedral city of Ely within striking distance for those wanting to explore the region's unique character and history.
Facilities are pleasingly simple: clean toilets and showers provide the essentials without unnecessary frills. Pitch up your tent, park your van or tow in your caravan, then settle into the unhurried rhythm of fenland life. Check about campfires when you arrive – when they're allowed, gathering round the flames under that enormous sky becomes the evening's natural entertainment. This is camping stripped back to what matters.
