Single Axle Caravan - Optional Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

The lane down from the pub to the site is full of very deep pot holes. Therefore, you must drive at less than a walking pace. The light in the gents shower does not work. They do not practice a re-cycling scheme. The pitches on touring side are grassed and reasonably flat, opposite are quite a few vans that look like long term campers, which are quite close together. Overall, not a bad site, but the lane does need sorting out, quite a worry that you could damage your caravan.

This is an okay site. Very safe and secure. The 200 yds drive to the entrance was horrendous, due to the depth and number of potholes.

Great weekend

VW-Type Campervan - Optional Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

I arrived to a good welcome from the warden and everything was pointed out for my use. The other campers on the touring pitches were very friendly and the location was nice and quiet with good walks.

Very pleasant stay

Everything is said online, be careful on the road leading up to the site, it's a bit bumpy but take your time and you'll be fine.

Could be a great little site

VW-Type Campervan - Optional Electric Grass PitchesJul 2023

Lovely site in a great location. Lack of showers lets it down. Problem is there is only one shower and that is in the disabled toilet wet room. Additionally, the female shower can only be described as a dribbler - I felt that using the hose outside would have been more effective! But the toilets, only 2 for each gender, were immaculate. Fortunately, the site was very quiet when we were there so there was no problem with availability of the facilities, but if it were full, it would be a major problem. Very safe with gate closure. Great pub at the bottom of the lane within an interesting village. Bawtry is an easy walk into with some interesting places to eat and drink. Value for money the site was excellent. The new toilet block just needs to cater for more who don't bring all their own en-suite capability.

Touring site seemed a bit messy to me, with limited facilities and no hard path to them. Hence, it was quickly mucky on a wet day. Nice pub up the road helped for one night.

Great location

Great site for our recent camping getaway. Plenty of space and electricity hook up points. The communal facilities were clean, the only downside is that the shower lacked pressure. We'll definitely be booking again.

Was put far too close to others, as we were setting up they put a van next to us, so we were unable to put our side pod on. Just need a little more room between.

Trailer Tent - Optional Electric Grass PitchesJul 2022

The park is a flat field with electric hook up & a shower block. Unfortunately, as it got busy there was little thought in where the vans were being put & after going out in the car, we created a bit of a shuffle with other campers to be able to get the car back to our pitch. The facilities look new but there is only 1 shower in the ladies & the same in the gents. The water pressure was a little more than a trickle. There is a property right at the side of the boundary fence who decided to have a party on the Friday evening & had loud music on until after 2am. There is a pub at the end of the track that has a brilliant beer garden and does lovely food. Overall, if the organisation of the vans, and the water pressure rectified in the facilities, this is a nice spot for a couple of days, especially when the sun is shining, which it was.

Gem of a site

Single Axle Caravan - Optional Electric Grass PitchesJul 2022

Gem of a site, everything was clean and well maintained, the pub just a 5 minutes walk away was a bonus. Only criticism would be that 1 shower is not enough for what is obviously a very popular site

Great value

Really excellent warden, full of advice and local knowledge. There's a nice nearby village to walk around, and a lovely pub 2 mins away and in the countryside. The facilities were fantastic too.

Great location for the pub

Twin Axle Caravan - Optional Electric Grass PitchesNov 2021

Lovely small site for a cosy weekend away close to home. Pub lovely and for us a reason to return. Didn't use the showers as no heating on at the time. They were spotlessly clean. Didn't see owners. It was lucky another camper could let us in. No complaints but nothing to rave about. We would not hesitate to return as pub so close and friendly.

Great for our maiden expedition

Very small simple site tucked away behind electric security gates. Warden was very helpful. Site beautifully clean and maintained. My only wish would have been additional shower and toilet facilities
