Hi Guys. We visited Ely in June 2022. The cathedral had a resident pair of Peregrine Falcons. You could hear them screeching all round town. Have you ever considered taking up fishing Dave? Fields End is very popular amongst angling caravanners.

Hi Sooty, I can’t sit still long enough to take up fishing 😂 Fields End though is the perfect spot for those that do 🎣. Ely was beautiful, would have liked to see the Peregrines. Thanks, Helen and Dave 👍

Hi Helen and Dave a brilliant video as ever what a great site and a place to get away from it all it looked so peaceful and again it looked like there were lots of facilities especially when in season I totally agree with you both about Ely we spent a lovely weekend there heading home from a lovely holiday over in hopton on Sea the cathedral is amazing one of my favourites how they built it is incredible the whole city is so pretty would love to go back! Hope the soup was good must look in to one of those machines they look Fab! All the best to you both Daniel

Hi there Dave & Helen, Two lovely sites and quaint historic places to explore. New Lodge Farm offers lots and is very unique. The spa looked very relaxing. Fields End is a site we’ve looked at this year and it’s on our to go to list. It’s a good price for a FS pitch at the water edge which we like. You ended with a nice touch in the church for your parents 👍. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

Hi Dave and Helen. Great site. Wish it was somewhere else, we live a few miles away from it.😢 Ely is a lovely place did have some good antique shops there. Chatteris not so much, find it a bit depressing. £31 per night is about normal for full service and look at the lovely site it is. Glad you liked it, well done with the soup Dave. Love your little animation going to the sites. Stay safe guys. Pete and Su.
