  • Peaceful farm site on the banks of the River Meden
  • Sherwood Forest and Clumber Park within 20 minutes' drive
  • Fishing available on site
Haughton Park House Farm is a family-run farm in north Nottinghamshire, with access to fishing and canoeing on the River Meden on site (bring your own canoe and rods) There are some splendid rural views from this peaceful site, and more to be had out in the surrounding area – which you can explore easily on walking routes (of varying difficulties) that leave from directly outside the farm. Two local farm shops and supermarkets are a short drive away and a pick-your-own farm is also about a mile away to purchase fresh, soft fruit to follow your dinner (when in season). This may be a wholly rural spot but it’s also one that’s very well connected: the farm is easily accessed from the A614 and A1 just between Sheffield and Nottingham, and therefore possibly handy as a stopover point on longer journeys. That location also means plenty of day trips are nearby, including outings to the likes of Chatsworth, Sherwood Forest and Creswell Crags.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Location

Disliked: I feel £20 was a bit excessive considering it was literally just a field with a portaloo and a tap next to it.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Proximity to Walseby forest and Sherwood forest
Beautiful fields surrounding
Incredible farm tour/feeding experience with Jennie the owner
Farm Animals and wild animals
Plenty of lovely local walks available

Disliked: It literally is a field with a portaloo and a tap so bugs and nettles part of the package too.
Different to expectations from photos of a busy campsite as we had it all to ourselves.
Access to the stream/river limited and overgrown with a 4 ft drop so felt unable to paddle board as hoped.
Make sure you check what evening entertainment is on at Walseby woods if you want a good night’s sleep (loud music until 10.30pm)
