 Excellent facilities including cycle and walking boot wash.

Very clean, hot showers with plenty of room, hooks and shelves. Good spacing between pitches.

Extremely helpful and friendly staff with lovely cafe and on site shop.

Nice walk on disused railway embankment adjacent to site going towards Radcliffe-On-Trent or Cotgrave Country Park.

This place is a real gem - so close to Nottingham but so quiet with dark starry skies.

Reviewer: Ssmant 1 review from this member

 One dark, wet and windy night in winter but the pitch, located close to the facilities were warm, immaculate and inviting.

Daylight the next morning revealed a pleasant site sectioned to allow a feeling of compactness along with a great looking playground.

As it was holiday time we didn’t actually see any staff but we were well catered for by their welcome pack with codes and a map of the site. Also included was a bag for recycling.

We didn’t see half of what was on offer but we will return when next requiring a place to stay in the area.

 Tent erected and required a shower. What facilities they were one of the best we have been on. Clean and spacious reception very helpful with a small shop and cafe.

Secured gate at night with numbered pad for entry during the day.

Electric hookup and drinking water close by.

Chickens wandering about but no hassle.

Dog friendly too.

Launderette, fridge and a freezer available. Going again.

 Nice large site, new washrooms very smart.

Little cafe & and shop on site.

Pool is a bit dated but an added bonus, booking was required.

Stonehouse pizza across the road ideal for late night arrivals!

Reviewer: Delmonte251 1 review from this member

 If the site itself and the friendly staff from us first walking into the site to checking in wasn't good enough, the city of Nottigham topped it off. A trip to Notts County game, followed by a day at the horse races, then the castle and caves.

The site was immaculate, showers and toilets spotless and very up to date.

A communal fridge and freezer was great help! The staff were really friendly and helpful.

Even with an easter weekend it was spaced out between pitches.

We will 100% be going again.

 Handy site for visiting Motorhome dealership as Motorhome had to have a new data cable installed & I live in North Yorkshire.

Very nice, clean site surprised it had a swimming pool. Lovely cafe & shop & clean facilities.

Very handy for stopping off midway on way down south,

Bit of road noise but apart from that a nice site.

 This site is first rate. Excellent showers and loos, plenty of space on the pitch. Really nice staff as well.

Coffee bar on site and a small shop with a good range.

Dark skies with no unnecessary site lighting.

Short walk to the bus into Nottingham - and to the carvery / pizza gastro pub.

Nearby country park provides good walking and cycling.

Reviewer: Cazbix 29 reviews from this member

 This is a very nice well-kept site,

The shower/toilets were very clean. In the ladies there are 8 toilets and 5 extra-large showers with a hand basin in each one, the showers were operated with the push button but after saying that you only needed to press once for a normal shower and twice for hair washing etc, these are also fully heated and there was also music playing.

There is also a family and a disable shower room as well.

There is a small shop for basic things.

Staff were very friendly and helpful.

There is a charge for the indoor pool but we didn't use this.

There is a small cafe but it was only open Friday to Sunday.

There is plenty of wild life around, squirrels, very friendly chickens wander freely and the occasional horse (With the owner)

I would highly recommend this site if you are looking for a site near Nottingham, Melton Mowbray or surrounding areas.

Please note this site is on a main road and the small airport is nearby, so at the weekend these is a lot of small planes flying around.

We were pitched on the orchard area not near the main road.

 Such friendly staff in all areas. Really clean and very quiet site.

We booked the pool for an hour with the kids and it was great.

Security measures were very reassuring too.

Can’t forget to mention the friendly chickens!

Reviewer: Mustnotgrumble 1 review from this member

 We live on Nottingham and wanted a short camping getaway with our children (3y & 1y).

The booking process by phone was easy. On arrival the site was easy to find and staff were very welcoming.

Our pitch was in the field nearest the road which was very noisy with lorries going by until late into the night which meant no one got much sleep. We also found the site noisy in the day between road noise and a lot of air traffic.

The site is very well equipped, the toilets, showers and wash up facilities were always spotless.

The children's play area was very nice and kept my 3 year old entertained for a while. There are plenty of open areas for children to run around and it felt very safe for them.

We booked to use the pool. I felt £20 for a session was expensive when all other sites I have stayed on with a pool is included in your site fee. It was advertised as heated which seemed misleading as the indoor pool area was heated but the pool didn't feel like it was and certainly not suitable for very small children under 1. My 13 month old was turning blue after 10 minutes. I'm sure it is fine for older children.

The site is nicely landscaped and clearly well tended to. It was just too noisy. In future I would request to stay in the rear field furthest away from the road in the hope of getting some sleep.

 Nice site but found it a bit noisy lots of familys so great for kids

Toilet and shower block clean and tidy but had a problem with the drains while we were there (constant smell).

Handy for the bus to town about a 5 min walk.

Watch out for the chickens especially if you have a tent.

Reviewer: Marian 1 review from this member

 Very well kept site very clean the shower/toilets were of the highest standard possible.

Small shop but had the basic things you may need. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

If you like a quiet site to stay on with plenty of trees, squirrels and chickens wander freely

I highly recommend this site.

There is an indoor pool but we didn't use this also a small cafe but it was only open friday to sunday.
