Enjoyed a very pleasant stay at this site. It is in an ideal location for the city of Nottingham and with easy access to other towns and cities too.
We used the nearby excellent bus service to Nottingham ( every 20 mins ) and even has a late bus service at weekends until 1 am. We also used the nearby shepherds pub carvery which is excellent value.
The site is nicely landscaped. The new amenities block is the best I have seen and kept immaculately clean.
The swimming pool is modest but is a good amenity to have, we did find it a bit cool though.
I recommend the site and look forward to a repeat visit.

Been visiting Thorntons Holt for 10+ years.
This month was the first since the new Facilities was completed, and they were brilliant, absolutely worth the wait! Always loved the site before the upgrade, looking forard to the rest :)
Woud highly recommend, and will be returning!

Seems a lovely site that would benefit from a return visit further in to season. Everywhere was wet and muddy (but so is everywhere else) so I haven’t let that influence me. We stayed just out of season so sadly the swimming pool wasn’t open but had a quick peep and looks lovely. The shower and toilet block is fabulous and along with the pool shows this is a site that is being invested in.
Seems a nice location (we stayed as we were going to the theatre in Nottingham) and it was perfect for us. Didn’t find it noisy at all but we were further away from the road unlike some of the pitches.
Didn’t see anything for the kids to do when the pool was shut but I didn’t exactly go looking.
Will definitely go back in summertime

We chose this site based on website info, and the fact that not many sites are open this time of year. Shower block would not be out of place in any luxury spa or high end gym. It is also brand new. However the rest of the site was in poor condition and poorly lit. The weather was awful so the fact that grass was soaked was no ones fault. We had a hard standing pitch! Staff were attentive and friendly, but it just wasn't enough to compensate for the isolated feeling and lack of grey water and chemical waste disposal points, and then there was the constant traffic noise, we expect that when trees are not bare this may be reduced but I fear probably not much. Couldn't get away fast enough !

What a lovely site. A little traffic noise admittedly, but you soon overlook that. We loved the way the chickens did their daily tour of the site, looking for anyone who would feed them. The new facilities are quite incredibly wonderful; so spacious, so warm and welcoming. The Shepherds pub is a short walk away and does an incredibly good value carvery and the site has its own small shop for essentials. The information provided upon arrival was much appreciated too and all the staff were incredibly friendly. Definitely a site to remember and revisit.

This is such a lovely place and one of the best sites we’ve visited. The owners have clearly put there heart and souls into making it look fabulous! The new washroom facility is extraordinary and the showers are huge! The staff can never do enough for you! There are free roaming chickens and a delightful playground. There is also an indoor swimming pool which is a real treat! The kids can play all they like, the facility is very safe. Furthermore there is a carvery/stone house pizza place just round the corner, which serves nice food. The campsite also is right near a bus stop which takes you straight into the centre of Nottingham in just 20 minutes! The overall cleanliness of the toilets are amazing and the showers are heavenly! The site is also kept mowed and is aesthetically pleasing to the eye. I would recommend this site to anyone and everyone, it’s simply superb and we shall visit again very soon! Well done to the owners! Can’t wait to come again!

What a absolutely beautiful site, we were lucky enough to arrive just as new shower block had opened. It did not disappoint us at all. We have spent 12 days here and could easily spend another 12 days here. Site is well maintained, shop sells essentials but Morrisons only 10 minute drive away or Sainsbury's local and coop I only 5 mins away in cotgrave.
Over the road about 5 min walk is the shepherds pub, carvery style and also does pizza, burger & chips plus other things. Went a few times and food was excellent and cheap enough.
We walked into cotgrave one day and sampled the wine/beers in both the pubs there, no food as stopped serving after 2:30.
Also visited Lincoln, Southwell and various other local towns while here, plus lots of national trust places too.
All in all excellent site, that is well loved and developing itself annually.
Thanks for a lovely summer holiday 2017 Thorntons Holt x x

Positives: gorgeous site, lots of hardstanding space for caravan, awning, car and room for the kids to play. Fruit trees everywhere. Fabulous new toilet block, the best I've ever found on a campsite. A family/disabled area is available too. Even the toilet emptying section had a sink and soap for your hands (that's rare). Met 5 staff, all fab, friendly, helpful and polite. Chickens are fun to watch. Easy to find. Lots to do nearby.
Not so positives: pool could do with being a bit warmer and have a rail to help those not so able bodied in and out. Changing rooms and some woodwork in the pool area need upgrading. But are adequate.
Play area needs some quite urgent attention as some areas were closed off and items were broken. But it is clear the owners are working really hard to improve the facilities and we are looking forward to returning to see what has been improved.
If the owner reads this I would suggest some heavy duty play equipment for kids of all ages. It's not just the little ones that like somewhere to go.

Third time visiting - lovely site with big pitches, plenty of space for the kids to play (especially on the back field). New toilets now open and they are huge, warm and free showers, lovely and clean. Well worth the wait.
Near the National Water Sports Centre too - loads to do there for all ages.

Very pretty site but if you want a gazebo you need to book another pitch! You will be asked to take it down. It's a shame the running of this site lets it down by their strict rules. Staff aren't very courteous.

We have been coming here for 14 years and 9 of those we have had a seasonal pitch. A beautiful location with immaculate grounds. Bus service to Nottingham very convenient, with a pub close by. This month the new facilities block has been temporarily opened as it is almost complete. WOW well done Simon & Polly it's been well worth waiting for, let's hope the campers give it the respect it well deserves. Although, due to no fault of your own, it's taken a while to build the block Simon's dedication and hard work has paid off. 10/10. Would recommend this site to anyone.

Campsite was nice but freezing cold showers that you had to pay for! Staff not very courteous and when I mentioned the showers had no hot water I was basically told to get up earlier! Tried that but still freezing! Other issue was if you were unfortunate enough to have a pitch near the hen house, you were awakened to the rather annoying sound of cockerels at the crack of dawn!

This was our first visit to this campsite, being new owners of a motorhome we wanted somewhere not to far from home while we tried everything out. We were welcomed by friendly helpful staff. We found the site clean and tidy, electric worked ok and toilet facilities although dated were warm and very clean. There was a small play area near to us for children, ponies in the next field and chickens, cockerels walking around. The shop had adequate supplies. We didn't use the swimming pool so can't comment on that but looking in at it seemed nice and clean. We took two of my grandchildren aged 6 and 2 and 3 small dogs and must say we all had a good time and enjoyed our weekend break there. The only fault I could find on this site. There wasn't any bins around the site to allow you to put the used doggie bags in and they can't be dropped into the main dustbins, other than that for a quiet place to stay we will be going back.

Lovely site. Great pitches. Poor Toilet facilities. New ones in progress but have been for 3 yrs still not completed and for the prices charged I feel it is very expensive. Weekend at the coast would have been same price with top facilities. Also rude staff. Back to Holmes Pierpont next time we go local.
