About Shepreth Mill Camping and Caravan Site
This peaceful site is an easy 15 mins from the local train station for trips further afield, a great getaway for campers and tourers alike. There are ten non electric grass pitches, suitable for tents, campervans, caravans and motorhomes. There is also an additional five hardstanding pitches with optional electric hook up, also suitable for tents, caravans, campervans and motorhomes. Set close to Shepreth Wildlife Park for nature fans with two National Trust properties within a 20-30 minute drive, this is a lovely retreat for nature lovers. Pets welcome.
Open all year
Site facilities include a shower/toilet block and a sink area for washing-up.
You can walk to The Green Man pub in ten minutes, however the road is busy and unlit at night so it is recommended to drive or at least take a taxi. You can also find two coffee shops and a large garden centre which has its own restaurant.

Can only be described as strange. Booked online via this website for 3 nights, but in view of weather, decided not to go for first night, so I rang the number I had been given to be told the site had changed hands and was given new number. No answer so left voicemail asking for return call, no return call, so I rang again, spoke to a young lady and explained, no problem. The Monday (when we were due that day) I got a call from the owner asking where we were, so I explained, again, and said would be down on Tuesday. Tuesday lunch time, en-route, I had another call asking if we were visiting, said, well yes, as I explained yesterday it would be in the afternoon. Arrived at site and there was no one around, so rang number and the chap turned up. He asked if we wanted hardstanding or not, explained we had booked online for hardstanding. Hardstanding pitches were very close together (unless you have an end pitch) and he explained the loo block was due to be demolished and rebuilt, but no evidence of that. The loo block was tired, information on the walls faded and peeling off, but it was clean. He then asked it we were paying by bank transfer, said no idea, hadn't even had time to get the caravan steadies down. Got sorted, and he came back again asking how we were paying, getting a little pushy. He then said he charged extra for electric and the basic price was more that we had booked for. I said we had paid a deposit online, but he asked us to pay the full amount. I offered to pay for the missing night (that was only correct as he could have lost another booking) but at the booked for price, less the deposit. He said he wouldn't charge for the Monday, so the amount asked for was the same as we would have paid for the original booking money. He then again asked about payment, well, we had cash and he took that (always intended to pay cash) and reluctantly gave us a hand written receipt. All very strange. No information provided re local walks or pubs, however, we met the young lady previously mentioned and she was very pleasant. Would I stop here again, a 'no', all left a very nasty taste in the mouth, yet it has the basis of being a very nice site.
A lovely location

A lovely location. This site is in its infancy, and they're working on improvements. Unfortunately, it seemed that the site may have been overbooked, resulting in it being a bit crowded. Not the site's fault.

This park is very nice and not to noisy, baring in mind it is just off the main road. The only let down is the toilet and shower blocks. I believe the owners now have planning to build a new block but the old are very tired and there isn't a huge amount of privacy. All in all we would definitely return and hopefully see the new toilet block in place on our next visit.
