Gostou Wonderful small touring site. The adjacent Pub food was excellent and the owner was very helpful. Very quiet excellent level pitches with plenty of room to back onto.

Não gostou Having to book food before 12 on the day you wanted to eat was a pain. I would definitely used it more as I didn’t know if I was going to need food depending on what I’d done during the day.

Gostou Really quiet, clean, well maintained site at the back of a pub. Only 10 minutes from the M1. Lovely food in the pub (pre-order). Very warm and friendly welcome by Sue and Ian. Great site for a stop over.

Não gostou No showers on site but not a problem (very clean toilets open 24 hrs).

Gostou A lovely site in a quiet rural area / village. Ideal locaion, as only around 6 miles from Nottingham city. Pitches are large and even on gravel with a bench table and parasol on a grassed area. Site is big enough for 5 or 6 Motorhomes.
There is the lovely bird of prey on the site too, that i had a chat with. The Chequers Inn pub is right beside the motorhome pitches.
It is a quiet area (but see below) in a nice hamlet/village.
I also feel safe at this site in person and of caravan/vehicle being left for the day.
It is handy to be able to get pub food too although i did not order any food. Food i gather needs to be ordered at least 24h in advance but not sure if that includes things like sandwhiches/ploughman's type lunch.
Overall i do recommend and i would go back and stay here again.
The owner lady i met last time is lovely and helpful, and due to arriving around 5pm, i already knew the site, so i parked up easilywithout having to contact reception.

Não gostou The site boundary of a high hedge on one side, backs onto people's private gardens. At times it is irritating as one of their dogs start to bark, off join all the other dogs. Admittedly the 'owners' of the dogs did intervene but it would be better imho if the dogs were trained not to bark at someone driving their vehicle along the back of one of the gardens, and other minor normal behaviour.
Having said that, a couple of years ago when i stayed here, it was one of the motorhome visitors that were more of a problem than the dogs, as they decided it was okay to put their music up loud whilst sitting in their motorhome.
Firstly, that kind of ignorance of motorhome/campervan camping, to think everyone wants to hear their noise is the height of disregard to other campers, the business owners AND the home owners - over the boundary fence. As an added extra, i thought to share my music with them too....that seemed to prompt them into turning their music off.

This year though every camper there was curteous and quiet.

It would be great if a small shower block/clothes washing machine was available. I'd be more prone to staying a bit longer. Although there is access to toilets all day and night re the pub toilets.
