Certified cl site at the ov
Escape the hustle and bustle by camping at The Old Vicarage, where you can relax and unwind amidst nature.
Wake up to the sound of birdsong, go paddling before breakfast in the clear water of a secluded stream. You will truly feel like you are getting away from it all.
Cook your bacon and eggs over an open fire while you plan your day, or just laze it away in the peace and quiet of your own personal caravan, motorhome or trailer tent. You can always go fishing tomorrow, and walk in the woods the day after that.
A Rural Retreat
The Old Vicarage is a 17th-century house in a small village conveniently located just off the A1, 6 miles from Worksop and 25 miles from Nottingham. Pitches are located around the grounds, which run down to the banks of the Poulter.
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 reserved to walk around, or you could follow one of the trails in the historic Sherwood Forest.
Guest facilities on the site centre around the Cave Bar, at the foot of an exposure of 500 million year old sandstone, and with a chillout room, TV room and games to play open Bank Holidays.
Other amenities include a washing-up area and bathrooms with showers, toilets and baby changing facilities. Family friendly. Groups welcome. Barbecues, campfires & dogs allowed. Recycling available. Free WiFi. Ice pack freezing. Parent & baby washroom and disabled facilities. Grass pitches. Electric hook ups available.
