Meadow View Campsite

Meadow View Campsite welcomes tents, caravans and motor homes. The small, level site has grass and hard-standing spaces, electric hook-up points, and free toilets and showers. Wifi is available and there is no charge for dogs.

There is a log pod available to hire which can sleep up to four people and comes equipped with a futon, bunks for children, television, microwave and kettle. There is a small American motorhome available to rent, and we have static caravans that are available to rent for short or longer periods of time. Bedding can be provided for an extra fee.

Meadow View is situated on the edge of Wicken. The small village has a rare twelve-sided smock mill, a picturesque duck pond and a number of thatched properties. The latter includes the local pub, the Maids Head, which serves a good range of food. Within easy walking distance of the campsite is Wicken Fen Nature Reserve, the first-ever property acquired by the National Trust in 1899. It has a visitor centre, a small cafe and various walking trails. There are many other walking opportunities in the locality: one pleasant stroll follows the Lode to the hamlet of Upware where you can enjoy a meal at the Five Miles from Anywhere No Hurry Inn.

Wicken is ideally placed to explore the countryside of East Anglia. The small city of Ely which is dominated by its cathedral, The Ship of the Fens, is 10 miles away as is Newmarket, the historic home of horse racing. Both are served by several high street stores as well as Tesco and Waitrose.
