  • I nærheten av Sherwood-skogen, 40 km fra Nottingham
  • Bar, TV-rom og tradisjonelle spill
You'll sense the history all around you at The Old Vicarage, from the old house to the remains of the water mill in the river bed. Stays here are in the grounds of a 17th-century house in the village of Elkesley, six miles from Worksop and 25 miles from Nottingham. Its grounds run down to the banks of the Poulter river, and are lined with stands of acacia, sycamore, ash and oak trees which were originally donated to the first vicar by the Duke of Newcastle in the 1830s. There's plenty of space around the site for traditional outdoor activities, with a rope swing and stepping stones over the shallow river and a bridge that's perfect for playing Pooh Sticks. In the surrounding area there are animal parks and nature reserves to walk around, or to head back further in time, you could take one of the trails through ancient Sherwood Forest, around quarter of an hour's drive away. Every bank holiday, the site opens up their Cave Bar, a cool little space built into an exposure of 500-million-year-old sandstone, with a chillout room, TV room and games, plus an outdoor terrace for sipping drinks out in the sunshine. Other amenities include a washing-up area and bathrooms with plentiful hot showers, toilets and baby changing facilities. Barbecues are welcome on site, as long as you keep them two feet off the ground.

Dette sier kundene

Denne pittoreske campingplassen roses for sitt vakre naturområde og grunne elv, populær blant barn. Familier setter pris på den avslappede atmosfæren, vennlige personalet og god plass til lek. Fasilitetene, spesielt toalett/dusj, trenger oppgradering, og det var utfordringer med renhold/kapasitet i travle perioder, men mange fant det likevel hyggelig og ønsker å komme tilbake. Grott baren og aktiviteter nevnes positivt.

Likte Wow..... what a great little site. It was at capacity but still lots of room. No cramped pitches. Great for kids, dogs and grown ups. Yes, the loos and showers could do with an upgrade, but cleaning products were provided and I would always clean before I use.
Footy was on and they provided a tv and kept the bar open.

Likte ikke If I'm being critical, number 1 ladies loo door won't open if the entrance door is ajar.

Likte Lovely vibe in a beautiful setting where everyone on the site just enjoyed each other’s company. Staff extremely friendly!

Could maybe turn the reception area into a little shop too to avoid people leaving site to purchase things such as milk. Nice little touch having fridges and freezers available for campers to use.

Likte ikke Power went off at 10.30pm on our first night and it was 11am the following morning before we managed to locate a staff member to get it turned back on. Power seems a bit hit and miss on the electric pitches. This won’t however stop us returning we will just come better prepared next time.

Hytte Luxury 1 rom

Likte Easy feel and peaceful. Beautiful surroundings and excellent helpful staff. They wanted you to have a good time. The kids were safe and a village feel in as much as all guests were watching everyone was safe. Cheerful atmosphere with chatty people enjoying the surroundings. Toys were shared and left around the site for anyone to use. One rule always take back to where you found it.
The river was a great attraction with rope swing, zip wire and fallen tree to play on. All kids taking their turn. The sounds around the camp was trees rustling, birds singing and children laughing.

Likte ikke We were a family of 5.Nana, gramps, Mum and 2 grandsons. We stayed in the cabin. It was great. Only one issue…. The cooker was extremely small. 2 rings and a combination microwave that was not sufficient to cook for 5 let alone 6 which is the capacity. A 12in Pizza wouldn’t even fit in the oven. A small standard cooker would be more appropriate and the kitchen is plenty big enough to fit one in. Only knocked one point off as the rest of the cabin was brilliant.

Fra bestyreren: Hi,

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review.

We are delighted to hear how much you enjoyed your stay in the cabin and that you appreciated the peaceful atmosphere, beautiful surroundings and friendly community feel around the campsite. It’s especially lovely to hear that your grandchildren enjoyed the river and that you felt safe and welcomed during your stay. Creating an environment where families can relax and make happy memories together is exactly what we aim for.

We also greatly appreciate your kind comments about our team. As a small family-run business, it means a lot to hear that our staff helped make your stay enjoyable.

Thank you as well for your constructive feedback regarding the kitchen facilities. We understand that the current cooker setup may not be ideal for larger groups, and your comments regarding oven capacity and suitable cookware have been noted. Feedback like this helps us identify areas where we can continue to improve the cabin experience for future guests.

We’re delighted that these points didn’t detract from your holiday and that you enjoyed the cabin, bathroom and unique sleeping arrangements.

Thank you again for your recommendation, and we look forward to welcoming you and your family back in the future.

Best wishes,

The Old Vicarage Campsite Team

Likte The grounds of the camp site are well looked after and it has a fantastic stream running through which the kids love to play in. Beautiful camp site, perfect for families.

Likte ikke Unfortunately the toilet and showers let the site down massively. Only 2 showers and 2 toilets in the ladies and only 1 shower in the men’s room. No where near enough for the number of campers. The showers were obviously all linked together and so if more than 1 person was showering the water trickled out. Very dirty and smelly in the toilet shower block. Not just camping dirty (happily expect that), but not cleaned dirty. A plastic bag and a wet towel remained on the floor throughout my 2 night stay. Couldn’t put anything down in the as there is no room, I had to wedge my dry clothes in the top of the door when showering.
If the toilet and shower block was improved/increased in size this site would be perfect.
I don’t usually write reviews but I felt quite strongly about how lovely this site is but how badly it’s let down by the toilet and shower situation.

Fra bestyreren: Thank you for taking the time to leave such detailed feedback. We’re really pleased to hear you enjoyed the grounds, stream and family atmosphere of the campsite – it means a lot to us as a small family-run site that you found it such a beautiful place to stay.

We’re genuinely sorry to hear that the toilet and shower facilities impacted your visit. We completely understand your frustration and appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention.

We would like to clarify for future guests that we do normally have additional facilities available onsite (a further 2 toilets and 1 shower). Unfortunately, during your stay these had to be temporarily closed due to damage caused after a nappy and baby wipes were flushed, which broke the expensive pump system. This was an unexpected issue and sadly outside of our control, and we did our very best to try and fix it while covered in sewage in 30 degree heat, but we appreciate this would have affected the experience for our campers while repairs were being dealt with.

Cleanliness is something we take very seriously, so we are disappointed to hear your comments regarding the shower block and will be reviewing this with our team to ensure standards remain high, especially during busy periods.

We truly value your feedback and are sorry that this affected what otherwise sounds like an enjoyable stay. We do hope you might consider visiting us again in the future so we can provide the experience we always aim for.

Best wishes,
The Old Vicarage Team

Lokale attraksjoner

The surrounding countryside has great places for walks and wildlife-spotting, with trails around the lakes and wetlands of Idle Valley Nature Reserve (15 minutes' drive) and lakes for fishing too. Then there's Sherwood Forest, 25 minutes away: some 450 acres of wildlife among ancient oak trees, alongside a wealth of biking and walking trails to take you through them. Adventure seekers can see it all from the treetops on ropes and wires at Go Ape, and the kids can clamber about at Robin Hood’s Hideout, an acclaimed natural play area. For family antics out of the forest, Sundown Adventure Park (20 minutes) has rides and themed playgrounds for the under-10s and families can also make tracks for Ferry Farm Country Park (45 minutes), to feed lambs, meet pigs and zoom about on go-karts and the adventure playground. An hour away and a major hub since Robin Hood's days, Nottingham still draws the crowds. Tour the castle and the caves, stop for a snifter in Ye Trip To Jerusalem (oldest pub in England, perhaps...), skate on ice at Motorpoint Arena and see what law and order meant in the Sheriff’s days at the National Justice Museum. For further historical wanderings, Creswell Crags presents an array of prehistoric caves in a cracking limestone gorge and Newark's castle, Air Museum and National Civil War Centre sum up the centuries very entertainingly, all around half an hour away.
