New for 2024, we have an area especially for getting your dog clean after a muddy walk.

We have coin-operated machines for washing and drying in the facility block and a small freezer for freezer blocks. The laundry room has a noticeboard where you will find local services information such as bus timetables and tourist information leaflets.

Washing-up areas

To help keep your pots and pans sparkling we have a semi-enclosed pot washing area in the facility block.

The Mill

The Mill is open for pre-bookable tours between March and October. To find out more or to make a tour booking, please visit the web page.

Tearoom

Our tearoom will be open daily between 10am - 4pm.

The riverside area

The river Great Ouse runs past the campsite and Mill. There are portage points to launch canoes and paddleboards through the mill towards Houghton lock. We do not encourage entering the mill pond as there are hidden hazards and dangers. Please check Anglian Waterways webpage for further information.

Overnight parking

Each pitch includes parking space for one car. There is very limited additional parking near reception but any additional vehicles must be approved and paid for in advance.
