Easy to find with the directions from the website. The annex field was well maintained and the portable toilets were spotless.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches (Annexe Field)Aug 2023

Great place, we stayed in a large tent within the annexe area. Good for dogs (in the annex area) seemed like the other area was a dog free zone, but don't quote me. 2 portaloos in the annexe area, BUT, access to 2 proper WCs and 2 showers. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves, relaxed atmosphere & chilled. 30 mins by car or so from Sherwood Forest. The hosts were accommodating and helpful/present. Fully recommend.

Enjoyable short break away

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesJul 2023

A lovely campsite, quiet and hidden in the countryside. Perfect for relaxing and star gazing. Great location- small drive from the town centre and great attractions like Sherwood Forest. The owners were friendly and accommodating. Fire pits are dotted around the campsite and you can buy enough wood for a night's fire from the owners. Perfect for us.

Lovely little site

We had a lovely short stay at this campsite. There's a relaxed feeling on the site and the owners are very friendly and helpful. The facilities were clean and tidy. We would definitely stay again. The barrow of wood for a fire and complimentary marshmallows was a real hit with the kids.

A lovely holiday near Sherwood

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesApr 2023

It's a very good campsite, tucked away not far from a residential street and main road but still managing to feel wild. The dawn chorus was incredible. The facilities are fine, but a little rough around the edges - perhaps I've been spoiled but some of the campsites I've been to in North Wales and Cornwall have had better facilities in spite of being wilder. Still, it's a lovely getaway, within walking distance of town and the hosts are kind and helpful. We'd come again.

Pro's: Overall, a good weekend's camping. Just family tents and children playing outdoors with their parents, and teenagers quietly enjoying each other's company. No rowdiness and everyone fast asleep by 11pm! The toilets and showers were basic, but clean and the hot water system outside was pure genius! The pitches were as big as you wanted them to be and the fire pits dotted around the site were a nice touch. There was plenty of room for everybody without encroachment and the hosts were a delight to deal with. Best thing was: no caravanners! No massive awnings and windbreaks, and no satellite dishes. Con's: Find me one!

We've just come back from our second stay in the Romany Caravan. It is a lovely quirky little escape with everything you need. The hosts are very friendly and helpful, and keep the site to a high standard of tidiness and cleanliness. The location is great.. tucked away in a quiet and secluded area. We definitely recommend it here and can't wait to return soon.

Just awesome! Super clean, very friendly. The wood was really convenient. The campsite is tucked away, if you weren't looking for it, you wouldn't see it, which makes it perfect for some peace, quiet and solitude.

Lovely campsite run by lovely, welcoming people who were happy to assist in any way. The only thing that could potentially be improved is the toilet facilities. Otherwise it was perfect stay

What can I say about Little Oak Camping. It was the first time me and my partner went camping as a couple and the start of our camping holidays. First of all, the owners were lovely and so helpful if needed, they couldn't do any more for you. We had a choice of which non electric pitch we wanted and with plenty of room between other pitches around us, with each pitch having its own campfire built into each pitch. The location of Little Oak is great and isn't far from big supermarkets and the big shops. There is plenty around only a short distance away. The cleanliness of Little Oak was immaculate. In the non electric pitches, we had portaloo toilets supplied with hand sanitizer and the main toilet area was only a short walk through the electric pitch. For the price we paid for our 2 night stay, we will be definitely be returning to Little Oak, by far the best campsite we have been too.
