  • Lugnt ställe på en flodstrand på marken till ett hus från 1600-talet
  • Nära den historiska Sherwoodskogen och 40 km från Nottingham
  • Bar, tv-rum och traditionella spel
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.

Vad våra kunder säger om oss

Campingen erbjuder en vacker, lugn miljö med en populär bäck för barn, gungor och lekplatser. Personalen uppskattas för sin vänlighet och den avslappnade atmosfären. Läget och familjevänliga aktiviteter hyllas, men renlighet och underhåll av sanitära utrymmen samt trängsel under högsäsong nämns. Grottbaren är en bonus.

Tomt för tält utan elektricitet på gräs

Tyckte om Such a lovely place to visit with children! The kids can really be themselves and feel free. There are lots of activities and toys for them to enjoy. The swimming area is also perfect for children — it’s very well designed for them and isn’t deep, so they can swim and play safely.

Tyckte inte om The only downside is that there are very few toilets, and unfortunately, they weren’t very clean.

Tomt för tält med elektricitet på gräs

Tyckte om The grounds are beautiful! we met a few of the family members that run the site, they were all friendly and helpful including the owner who was so helpful and also found a little bike for my daughter to borrow.
Having the option for a late check out so we could enjoy our last day was also a bonus
We will definitely return!

Tyckte inte om The toilet and shower shed :(

It was cleaned and looked after, it’s fine for a couple of nights camping.
If the toilet block was upgraded id definitely stay for more than 2 nights.

Tyckte om We loved the location of the place and kids playing in the water.

Tyckte inte om Parents not watching there kids. Resulting in one boy throwing a rock with such force at my daughter. We ended up at hospital with a broken arm.
The facilities so much potential to be nicer.

Tomt för tält utan elektricitet på gräs

Tyckte om Lovely stream and a quaint little camping site. Could be so much more but feels neglected and that the owners have lost interest.

Tyckte inte om Rats! Loads of them running around at night. Guess can’t be helped near a river but the tonnes of rubbish on the site would also be attracting them. The limited toilets / showers were also filthy and not cleaned once in the two days we stayed. Never saw any staff about tidying or cleaning at any point. No hot water in the showers but to be honest they were so dirty we didn’t want to use them. Didn’t feel any point in complaining to staff as they seemed disinterested and clearly not bothered about basic hygiene for guests. I think this site makes most of its income from weddings so they aren’t really bothered about making campers feel comfy. Bar was also closed the whole time we were there. Husband asked if he could buy a drink once when the shutters were up and staff in bar but they went to ask someone and then just said no! 🤣

Från föreståndaren: Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations, although we do feel it is important to clarify some of the points raised for the benefit of future guests.

Our toilets and shower facilities are cleaned twice daily, including once during the early morning period and again later in the day. We therefore cannot agree with the statement that they were “not cleaned once” during your two-night stay. As with any shared facilities, cleanliness can unfortunately be affected between cleaning rounds by the behaviour of other guests, and we do ask everyone to leave the facilities as they would wish to find them.

Regarding the rubbish shown in your photographs, if rubbish is being left next to individual campers’ pitches, this is unfortunately something we cannot control. Guests are responsible for their own waste and are expected to dispose of it appropriately. We do not deliberately leave piles of rubbish around the site, and it is unfair to suggest that this is evidence of the owners having “lost interest” or that the site is neglected.

We’re also disappointed by the comments regarding rats. We are situated in a rural setting with a river running through the site, so wildlife is an unfortunate reality of being in the countryside. However, we take pest control and hygiene seriously and would ask guests to report any concerns to us during their stay so that we have the opportunity to investigate.

We’re sorry you felt there was no point in speaking to us. Had these concerns been raised with us at the time, we would have been more than happy to discuss them and investigate anything you felt was not up to standard. It is particularly difficult for us to address issues retrospectively when we are not made aware of them during a guest’s stay.

Our bar is not a permanently staffed bar. It is generally open on bank holidays and busier periods, and during quieter periods we use a bell so guests can alert us when someone is available to serve them. As a small family-run site, we simply do not have the staffing levels to keep the bar permanently staffed when there are fewer guests.

We are genuinely sorry that you left feeling disappointed, but we do feel that some of the comments give a misleading impression of the site and the effort that goes into maintaining it. We are always happy to receive constructive feedback, but we also believe it is important that factual inaccuracies are clarified for future guests.

Excellent place for a weekend away with the kids!

Luxury stuga 1 sovrum

Tyckte om Loved the cabin its self, was a lovely set up for how small it was it didnt lack facilities or space for us all, owner was lovely when we saw her out in the garden.
The stream is stunning and the swings, zip wires and little extras all around was excellent for the kids!
Atmosphere relaxing and breathtaking.
I brought my baby monitor but they even provided one of them which I was very surprised about, you can tell this is a family run business because they think about what families need.

We are already looking at booking again for September so we will see you then!

Tyckte inte om Only downfall was the shower, if there was people in the showers for the outside campers then the hot water for the cabin wouldn’t work, they came over to fix it and was lovely about it but then we figured out I had to wait till the outside campers finished, unfortunately with a baby it meant his bed time went well late and hes cranky when he doesn’t get his wash and bed ahah!
The noise from the toilet/shower area for the outside campers is right next to the bedroom window, unfortunately noise continued till 1am and this was when there was only 2 other families camping so I was surprised how noises it was but understand the family couldn’t monitor it all as they were probably asleep at that time and it was just young teenagers a little bit tipsy ahha

Lokala sevärdheter

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.
