Motorhome Stopovers in Ely

Ely sits in the Cambridgeshire Fens, roughly 15 miles north of Cambridge, with the A10 running through it as the main road north towards King's Lynn and south towards the city. The cathedral dominates the flat fenland skyline for miles around โ€” it's one of the most recognisable landmarks in the east of England. The River Great Ouse runs alongside the city, and the surrounding fenland is wide, open, and very different from most of the UK. The A142 heads west towards Newmarket and east towards Soham and the A14.

Motorhome Stopover Club members share verified stops in and around Ely โ€” a practical overnight stop for anyone touring the Fens, heading up to the Norfolk coast, or crossing between the A1 and A11 corridors.
