Ferry Meadows Country Park
There is something for everybody at Ferry Meadows.

You can hire canoes and kayaks from the the Watersports Centre or if you prefer something more leisurely how about a boat trip around the lake? You can even walk on water by climbing inside a huge plastic ball with Hydrosphere.

If you’re more of a land lover there is cycle hire, Segway tours, pitch and putt and a miniature train ride.

We also offer an events programme throughout the year which includes lots of activities for children including trails during school holidays and orienteering courses for older children.

Ferry Meadows has three play areas catering for different ages as well as woods, meadows and paths to explore on foot or by bike.

If all of this isn’t enough to keep you entertained the Visitor Centre stocks a wide range of toys and games such as kites, footballs, skittles and gliders and much much more.

After all this activity you can relax at one of the cafes with great views over the lakes, find a nice spot for a picnic or even fire up one of the barbeques available onsite.

Please note: many of the activities are seasonal so do contact us to check dates.

There are two cafes within Ferry Meadows. The Lakeside Cafe at the Watersports Centre offers a wide range of hot meals, snacks, refreshments, ice cream and great views over the lake. All meals and cakes are homemade. The Green Cafe by the Visitor Centre offers hot meals, snacks, lunch boxes and a kiosk for ice creams and cold drinks.

The Lakeside Cafe can provide gluten free, dairy free and vegetarian options and cater for nut allergies. If you have further special requirements contact them prior to your visit. The Green Cafe has vegetarian and healthy options.

Games, toys, gifts, souvenirs and everything you could need for a great day out.

There are toilet facilities including disabled toilets located by both car parks and at both cafes. Baby changing facilities are available at both cafes and both toilet blocks.

The Lakeside Cafe is happy to warm milk and food for babies.

Ferry Meadows lies 3 miles west of Peterborough and just two miles east of the A1. On all major routes into the city, look for and follow the brown tourist attraction signs for NENE PARK or the country park symbol. Ferry Meadows is signed on Oundle Road (A605). For Sat Nav or web searches the post code for the Park is PE2 5UU. This will direct you to Ham Lane, the entrance to Ferry Meadows.

Pop into the Visitor Centre when you arrive and find out everything you need to know about the Park. Buildings and toilets are accessible. Accessible fishing platforms. Adapted Cycling Scheme and Sailability Scheme operate in the Park.
