Irondale Touring Caravans and Campsite

Very helpful and friendly, the pub food was home made and was lovely. With all what’s going off they was very well organised lots of hand gel.

The site is small only 6 or 8 pitches but well maintained plenty of room for caravan awning and car.
All pictures are level with electric hook up.
This place is great if you would like to visit Derby or Nottingham as not far at all.
We will definitely be coming back especially for the pub food 😋.

Access road not great but it is a Country pub just take your time. Tip when going in drive as Close to your left as possible. We have a 26ft caravan and managed fine.

Large flat well drained pitches,plenty of space to get large twin axle on pitch (7.98mt twin axle)well kept grass area next to pitches with picnic table and a bird table,nice touch. Water point easily accessible by the gate, grey/ cassette emptying point also easily accessible top of the car park in its own area with hose pipe for rinsing.Sue the landlady gave us a cheery welcome on arrival told us where the water etc was,we had rung prior to arrival to let her know eta,toilet facilities in the pub are accessible to pitches 24/7 and spotlessly clean.pub is cosy with great food and ales at very reasonable prices,can recommend the steak pie! We will be returning, access off the road can be tight if you don’t take the right line, not a negative just an advisory to those with larger outfits.quiet at night and felt secure.gated access. We used our own wifi,phone signal ok good tv reception.

Coming home

Absolutely everything. Easy to find, very close to the M1. The people in the area are kind and friendly. The landlord and lady of the attached pub were fantastic. Sat and had a drink with them till close. Amazing atmosphere and will definitely be visiting again.

None

The site itself, attached to the Chequers Inn is well kept with flat pitches.
The village itself is pleasant but doesn't have a shop but has another very welcoming pub (Stanhope Arms) which serves good food and observes good social distancing practices.
There is a pleasant deli/coffee shop at the old village school.

On checking in a lady from the pub came out and told us our pitch number then disappeared. We parked up then discovered that we had to get the motorhome back to the entry gate to fill up with water. It would have been good to have been told where the fresh water, chemical toilet and grey water points were on checking in.
Re waste aspects we discovered that these are tucked away at the top of the pub car park and not easy to use, especially for getting rid of dirty water from our carrier. There is no water supply either so couldn't rinse out the chemical toilet.
With regards to the Chequers Inn I don't think I would recommend for the hospitality. My wife went in initially whilst I set up the motorhome and received a rather unfriendly welcome. I went in shortly after to pay the balance on the pitch charges. Only on getting home and checking with my original booking did I discover that I had been overcharged so if you choose to stay here make sure you know what your outstanding payment is before going to pay. Also social distancing in the pub was not very apparent, partly because the internal layout won't facilitate it.
Overall, I didn't think this was good value for money at £25/night (or £27.50 as we ended up paying with the overcharge). There was no site wi-fi either.

This site is relatively new and some of the facilities are yet to be completed, but don’t let this put you off booking, they might have finished them when you go. There are 5 semi hard standings with a grass patch at the side including a picnic table for your sole use, plus a grass pitch for tents.The site is situated in a very picturesque village that is well worth exploring. At the back of the site is access to a country walk for those who wish to get out and about a bit, but my favourite was without a doubt the Chequers Inn, where a good selection of ales were available and the home cooked meals were great value. We will definitely make this location one of our regular haunts as it is less than an hour from our home.

No dislikes though a WiFi facility would be a great addition.

Very neat well kept. Dog friendly adult only

No shower facilities. Only toilet in pub. Expensive night fee especially when dining in pub. No option to not have electric.

Pub ,area ,pitch size, smart neat tidy

motorhomes can't empty out at grey waste point as it is on a slope you will need a tank on wheels.

Very friendly and a warm welcome from the hostess. Parked up in a newly formed campsite behind the pub. Pitches were beautiful and the pub was excellent. 12 out of 10
See you soon the Tats from Doncaster

Nothing at all

Lovely quiet spot right next to a lovely local pub
