3 nights at Little Fleece at Folly Farm
We absolutely loved our stay at Jane’s shepherd’s hut. it was the perfect off-grid escape from our busy lives. The hot tub and outdoor pizza oven were definite highlights and made the trip feel extra special.
Jane and her husband were incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and quick to respond whenever we had a question or needed anything. The hut is also ideally located; peaceful and secluded, yet close enough for lovely walks/run and a nearby pub for a quick pint.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing countryside getaway.

We had such a fun time. Claire (our host) was lovely and made us feel incredibly welcome. We didn't bring anything to sit on (as we had taken public transport) and she was kind enough to lend us some benches for us to use on our patch. She ensured that our wood was kept dry for our campfire and that she was within reach should we need anything. We would definitely return again. Thank you for a lovely evening.

2 nights at Little Fleece at Folly Farm
We had the most wonderful stay at this little countryside getaway! From the moment we arrived, Jane was absolutely incredible - so kind, welcoming, and full of helpful information about the lodge and surrounding area. She’d thought of everything, leaving clear instructions for how everything worked, which made our stay effortless and relaxing.
The thoughtful touches really made it special - from the freshly baked bread to the delicious shortbread cookies, everything felt homely and made with love. The setting itself was pure peace and quiet, surrounded by nothing but cows, trees, and the soft sounds of nature. It was the perfect place to switch off, breathe deeply, and just enjoy the calm of the countryside.
We honestly didn’t want to leave - a hidden gem that we’d return to in a heartbeat!

This was my third visit this year and we pitched up in a different location to before. The choice of where you want to pitch up is endless and every area of the pitch gives you complete privacy with stunning views. If you have a dog then this pitch is perfect for them to enjoy open space. Peter and Celia are amazing hosts with great communication. The pitch is really easy to access and find, we were fine with our 7m camper. I highly recommend this Hipcamp.

The best farm stays near Cambridge guide
Where to go
The Fens
Between Cambridge and Petersborough, the patchwork marshlands of the Fens stretch between the banks of the River Nene and Great River Ouse. Explore the flat landscapes by bike or on foot, spot wildlife or go fishing along the waterways, or admire the views from the water on a narrowboat cruise. Campsites are clustered around the market towns of Whittlesey, Chatteris, and Wisbech.
Suffolk Coast
Less than 1.5 hours from landlocked Cambridge, the Suffolk Coast AONB is a wildlife-watching paradise. Walking and cycling trails lead the way to wildflower-blanketed heathlands, shingle beaches, and coastal estuaries teeming with birds. Campers have plenty of options, whether you check into a holiday park, pitch your tent along the coast, or go glamping in the woods.
Norfolk
East of Cambridge, the coastal county of Norfolk has everything you need for a traditional British beach vacation. The beach resorts of Great Yarmouth, Hunstanton, and Cromer are favorites among campers and caravanners, with sandy beaches and brightly painted beach huts. Spend a day at the beach, paddle around Norfolk Broads wetlands on a canoe, and spot seals at Blakeney Point, then grab yourself some fish and chips to enjoy as you watch the sunset.
When to go
Cambridge is a year-round destination, and its lively student population means there’s always something happening in the city. Peak season is July and August, and popular sights can get overwhelmed by day-trippers—make an early start to get a jump on the crowds. University colleges are open for visits at this time, as well as select times throughout the student year, while punting is possible from April to October.
Know before you go
- Cambridge has several camping and outdoors stores where you can pick up supplies for your camping trip.
- Cambridge has public transport links to many of the surrounding towns and attractions, but it is handy to have your own transport, especially if staying at rural campsites.
- Most campsites require advance booking, and many ask for the full payment upfront. Be sure to check opening dates, as some campsites close in the winter months.
- Wild camping is illegal throughout Cambridgeshire.
