Zufahrt ungünstig. Platz geeignet für echte Campingplatzverweigerer. Würde dort nicht übernachten, auch wenn es ruhig ist. Alles eng, als Anwohner hätte ich keine Freude

Super park up, peaceful and quiet. Lots of cyclists, joggers and dog walkers but no bother and very quiet on the night time. Stayed for 1 night. Walk into Cambridge within 30-40 mins through the local nature reserve and along the river. Please respect the locality, use the bins and leave no trace.

Super Stellplatz. Hin und wieder zurück ungefähr 4 km zur Universität. Sehr viel Betrieb durch Jogger und Leuten mit Hunden. Am besten mit der Front zur Hecke parken. Mit 6,6m passt man noch auf einen normalen Platz.

stayed one night with no issue. parked by the houses just before the car park. lots of cyclists and walkers but other than that nice and quiet. very flat, 4g EE was 4/5. 20 minutes by the river into Cambridge. timothee grass and rye in the field so my hayfever was heightened but what can you do

Nice location, safe and quiet. It is a good neighborhood. We stayed 2 nights with no problems and enjoyed walks to Cambridge to look around and eat.

Perfect spot for a great night sleep, a walk through the meadows and into town. Trash and recycling bins provided, beautiful scenery and very quiet, although well visited. Please park and behave properly, so this gem of a spot remains unrestricted

excellent location for Cambridge; BUT not suitable for vehicles more than 6m due to a narrow access road and if no spaces, very difficult to turn round. spaces come available after dark so plan arrival time accordingly. we stayed two nights arriving at lunchtime and we're very lucky as ONE space was left! Excellent facility if you arrive later in the day.

Nice quiet little spot with just a bit of passing traffic from cyclists, joggers and dog walkers. No restrictions on parking.

Excellent location for quickly getting into Cambridge. Lots of other vans staying there and looked like they’d been there for a few days. We arrived early and parked up and worked from the van for the day undisturbed. We decided to try out a location by the river in Milton across the other side of the city to stay the night though.

Lovely place near the river, free, quiet apart from swimmers to chat with.

The unpaved road has been narrowed by rewilding efforts so there is next to no space to park here here now. the spaces which were available seemed to be long parked cars. had to find a different spot.

I think the residents only bit is in the adjacent street, I have stayed here recently with no problems

This spot is now reserved for permit holders only.

The parking is quite small. We arrived at 6:30am for an early start in Cambridge and there were cars and 3-4 campers which seemed like they are here for a bit longer than just overnight. The neighborhood is really peaceful but there’s a lot of runners and dog walkers. There’s a Co-op nearby as well as 2 other local shops.

As described by others. quiet, but it's very muddy and there is no privacy in the morning. we walked into Cambridge for brunch at Fitzbillies, and it was yum!

Parking calme et plat dans une impasse à 15 min du centre de Cambridge. Parfait !

Busy in the morning until after lunch (waiting time was 30min). Tight access will be a problem for larger vehicles. The parking area is rutted and uneven but parking bays are acceptably flat (although not demarcated). No CCTV or security present so might not be the best place to leave vehicle for Cambridge commute.

Un bel endroit tranquille pour une nuit et une visite de la ville mais il n'est pas grand comme pourrait le faire croire les photos.

Nice location between Grantchester and Cambridge on a beautiful river walk

Looks alot bigger than it actually is, filled with campers who looked more permanent than just visiting, we were able to park near the entrance but only good for visiting Cambridge not sleeping

Mooie, rustige plek. Co-Op vlakbij. Centrum op 5min fietsen over goede fietspaden. Station op 10min fietsen. Nice, quiet spot. Co-Op in the neighbourhood. City centre at just 5 minutes by bike, along decent cycle paths. Train station at 10 minutes cycling.

As described, a great spot to sleep while in Cambridge. Perfect with dogs. Make sure to take you trash with you to avoid that the municipality might put up height restrictions.

Top ! A 30 minutes à peine à pied de Cambridge. Paisible la nuit. Beaucoup de passages la journée de promeneurs et de joggeurs. Aucune restriction de hauteur. Gratuit :)

Slechts 2 kilometer lopen van het centrum van Cambridge sta je hier met uitzicht op groene weiden. Veel wandelaars en fietsers passeren en parkeren er soms ook, maakt het levendig en geeft vertrouwen.

Busy with joggers and people passing through in the evening but no problems sleeping at night. Felt very safe. 25 minute walk to the city center.

We just managed to park our 6.5m long motorhome without causing an obstruction. It's level ground and nice scenery, but although it's quietish, we were women by fishermen arriving in the night. It's busy with walkers/joggers until late night and early in the morning. Would recommend it!

Very peaceful spot surrounded by nature. Had a good night sleep. No amenities. Lots of joggers and walkers use the park so it becomes quite busy in the mornings.

Spot tranquille pour la nuit. Passages de joggeurs cyclistes et autres promeneurs mais pas dérangeant. Ne convient pas aux véhicules trop longs. Pas de services, container poubelle dispo et parking éclairé.

Nice spot. close to Cambridge centre. busy with dog walkers and runners. open fields. Few campers here. no facilities.

Nous avons longuement roulé et sommes contents d'avoir trouvé ce spot pour dormir. beaucoup de passage, jusque tard dans la soirée (minuit/1am). Idem le matin, les promenades canines et autres vélos passent à cadence élevée. Toutefois le quartier est tout a fait mignon et nous n'avons pas semblé déranger le voisinage.

Poco espacio para ACs grandes. Están construyendo un carril-bici pavimentado a lo largo del camino. Creo cuando esté terminado sólo cabrán coches.

Des travaux le long de la clôture en bois réduisent l’espace, et beaucoup de passage.... refoulés des campings avoisinants, nous sommes bien contents quand même de pouvoir nous poser là pour la nuit !

Ne pas hésiter à aller jusqu'au bout du chemin, peu carrossable. Ne peut pas convenir à de grands camping-cars (pas de 6 m). Nous nous sommes garés en journée pour visiter Cambridge à pied, environ 20 mn de King's College. Parfait !

Bon stop sur la route vers l'ecosse. Mais reste dans la ville, avec du passage de piétons...

We agree this is a nice and quiet parking for the night. It is practical because it is not far away from the city. However, unfortunately our camper was broken into by plain daylight on this parking and several things were stolen from the car. So be very careful if you park here and do not leave any valuables in the car!

Lieu sympa mais beaucoup de nids de poules juste avant d'arriver sur le parking... Bonne nuit en Easy Bed Car et calme. Près d'un chemin où on peut marcher et courir. Cambridge pas loin.

Terrain légèrement en pente et pas mal de trous sur la route pour y accéder. Pas mal de passage (joggeurs, promeneurs, ...) mais très agréable et sécurisant malgré tout ! Nous avons passé une bonne nuit

Endroit calme la nuit, un peu de trafic le matin (voitures, joggeurs...). Chemin carrossable à la fin mais beaucoup de trous remplis d'eau si période pluvieuse. Parking plat

Great spot. 20mins walk to Cambridge centre. We stayed Friday until Sunday and weren't disturbed. It's at the end of a road next to a sports field. No facilities but very quiet after dark.

Endroit très tranquille. Assez difficile d'accès par rue étroite. Fin du chemin plein de trous. À déconseiller pour véhicules de plus de 6 m.

debaurelmaxdo

Endroit au bout d'une impasse, seul passage des marcheurs, joggeurs et cycliste. Surface non plane, beaucoup de trous. Très proche du centre, à 5 min en vélo. Parking nuit et jour gratuit.

Great place! Enough space and quiet spot. And just a nice 20 minute walk to the town center!
