Electric hardstanding and grass pitch

Liked We stayed for two nights at the campsite behind The Chequers Inn in Stanton by Dale and had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The site itself is compact, tidy, and well cared for, run by Sue, the friendly landlady of the pub.

Each pitch offers a gravel area alongside a grass section, complete with a well-maintained picnic table and umbrella—making it easy to relax outdoors. A particularly convenient feature is the grey waste point provided at each pitch, which you don’t always find on smaller sites.

The Chequers Inn is a real gem. It’s beautifully presented with a clean, welcoming atmosphere and a football-themed décor that gives it a unique character. The pub serves a great selection of food and beer, though food must be pre-ordered—a detail worth noting for planning ahead. There are two pleasant outdoor seating areas, ideal for enjoying a drink in the evening.
Look out for Ken, the sites Harris Hawk.

Overall, it’s a well-run site with excellent facilities, a warm welcome, and a great pub just steps away. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Liked Just minutes from the Motorway. Got everything you need for an overnight stop-off. Lovely quiet spot. Footpaths just behind the site (good for dogs). Pub is lovely and gives 24 hour access to their toilets.

Local attractions

Do a round of the greens at Erewash Valley Golf Club (20 minutes' walk), a well-kept local club with fab tree-lined fairways that's easily accessible on foot. Other outdoor pursuits around here include fishing, with the nearest angling spot about five minutes' drive away, and birdwatching – Attenborough Nature Centre (20 minutes) may be named after the nearby village rather than the TV presenter, but it's still a prime pick for a spot of ornithology. Nottingham city centre (20 minutes) is next up, for a castle, shopping centres and the interactive National Justice Museum. (Rather not drive around town? Pull up to one of the city's park and rides and take the tram instead.) On the outskirts of Nottingham is Wollaton Hall (20 minutes), an Elizabethan country house with a deer park and formal gardens. (Remember Batman's mansion in The Dark Knight Rises? Yep, that was filmed here.) Heading towards the Peak District National Park (from 45 minutes) is also on the cards, whether you opt for Derbyshire dalliances in the grounds of Chatsworth House (an hour) or old-time amusements and riverside walks in Matlock Bath (45 minutes).
