Real ale and pub food served; 20 minutes' walk from a golf club

Dart off to Derbyshire and make for Irondale Touring Caravans and Campsite in Stanton by Dale, a well-kept site attached to an award-winning pub. The name of this spot is a nod to Stanton's industrial heritage – if the village rings a bell, it may well be because 'Stanton' crops up on many a manhole cover across the UK. Nowadays, things are peaceful around here, and the site is set between traditional red brick houses and a small village green. The Chequers Inn is over 200 years old and still in fine fettle – its selling point remains its focus on real ales and proper home-cooked food. The pub, like the site, is mightily dog-friendly, so don't hesitate to bring four-legged friends along on your trip. The pitches here are level, well-drained and conveniently located to the rear of the pub. Although it's close to the M1, off-site strolls are unlikely to involve busy roads and traffic – Irondale Touring Caravans and Campsite is a few minutes' walk from footpaths that'll take you through the pleasant fields and hills that make up the local landscape. The nearest supermarket can be found in Sandiacre (five minutes' drive); Ilkeston (10 minutes) has a wider range of shops and takeaways. Please note that kids under the age of 14 aren't allowed to stay at Irondale Touring Caravans and Campsite.

David H. Jun 2024

Powered cement/asphalt and grass campsite

Liked: Friendly owners, good pitch drain, 16 amp hookup. Quiet site.

Disliked: Water point was shared with a riding stable adjoining the caravan site with swapping of hoses from a single water point, which also was a piped connection to the Elsan disposal area. The hygiene side of swapping pipe connections after using the Elsan point and also opening and closing the entry gate needs urgent attention. The entry and exit from road to site is precarious as the turn in and out is acute. Exiting when vehicles are parked above and below the opening restricts vision particularly when in a car. |Could do with mirrors opposite the exit for both up and down the road. to go back to close the entry/exit gate requires stopping somewhere up or down the road which is difficult as roadside parking is restricted.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Hardly any effort to swap a hose! Not sure what your point is about hygiene? There is a separate hose for the Elsan point and a separate one for drinking water - nothing unhygienic there? The gate doesn’t require any “urgent attention “at all. That was installed as an extra security measure ( double gated). With regards to to the site having a precarious entrance when we send you our welcome letter after making your booking one of the points we make is that the “entrance is a little tight and tricky” therefore if that is something that might be of concern to you do not book! As for opening and closing the gate your comment quite frankly is pathetic!

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).
