About The Orchard at Fen End Farm

Tucked into a peaceful corner of the Fens just outside Cottenham, this small, family-friendly eco site strikes a lovely balance between simplicity and charm. You can pitch your own tent in the grassy orchard or opt for ready-pitched glamping in a yurt, tipi or bell tent – all with the bonus of crackling campfires come evening. Facilities are straightforward (showers, toilets, drinking water) but well-maintained, and the welcome is warm without being over-fussy.

Cambridge lies just a few miles south, making this an ideal spot for cycling into the city or exploring the quieter villages and waterways of the surrounding fenland. Note that dogs aren't permitted and there's no WiFi, so it suits families after a proper digital detour rather than those needing constant connectivity.

​We loved our stay at Fen End Farm! The apple orchard is beautiful, and each pitch is nestled within high grass, providing plenty of privacy. The facilities were clean and tidy, and having a free fire pit was a great touch. Cottenham is just a short drive away and has a nice pub and a chip shop. My son especially enjoyed seeing the horses, cows, and chickens, and the cherry on top was watching the aircraft pull out from the hangar! The apple juice was amazing—fresh, crisp, and made with only two ingredients. We ended up buying three bottles. Highly recommend and we would definitely stay again!

Super super campsite - small farm shop where you can purchase burgers, mince, apple juice, cider, apple juice ice lollies all from the farm. Compost loos and showers very clean, spacious and pleasant. Even for families with young children! Lovely orchard setting, lovely hosts. Would definitley return!

A Charming Stay at Fen End Farm Fen End Farm in Cottenham is a delightful eco-campsite, just 10 miles from Cambridge. Nestled in an organic apple orchard, the serene setting with private pitches and glamping options like yurts is perfect for families and nature lovers. Host Amy’s warm, friendly welcome made us feel instantly at home. The clean facilities, including hot showers and compost toilets powered by renewable energy, were impressive. Kids loved the bug-hunting kits and safe play areas, while we enjoyed cozy campfires and the farm’s delicious apple juice and organic burgers. With its eco-conscious ethos and peaceful vibe, Fen End Farm is a gem for a relaxing, sustainable getaway. Highly recommend!

A wonderful rural website, with great facilities and helpful friendly owners. We loved that cooking on camp fires was not just tolerated but encouraged in keeping with a strong sustainability vibe at this site. Toilet and washing facilities were spotlessly clean and supplied with very hot water and eco friendly toiletries. A useful cabin was also provided for washing pots and pans storing cold items and generally hiding if the weather outside is unkind. My partner loved camping in the orchard and being allowed to help herself to the apples, I think she left a few! Oh and the produce available please try it for yourself we certainly enjoyed our evening drinking the cider and eating the burgers.
