Our first visit to the refurbished Clumber Park and what a fantastic facility it is for club members. We were welcomed by friendly staff who always had time for a brief chat as they went about their daily tasks to keep the site facilities in pristine condition. We had four nights at the end of February so our expectations on weather weren't great but even though there were lots of showers we somehow got out and about and managed to avoid most of them. Nearby Clumber Park is about 2 miles from the site with loads of unspoilt parkland and woods. Remember this is a National Trust Property so unless you're a member you will have to pay their admission charges. However there is direct access to the forest from the site with no charges and there are miles of forest tracks to explore either on foot or bike. Other than the Clumber Park estate we visited the Sherwood Forest Visitor Centre about 8 miles from the site which has a lot of history surrounding the adventures of the mythical 'Robin Hood' and it also has miles of woodland trails to explore with a nice cafe when you finish. No entrance fee but £5.00 to park your car. The new facilities are magnificent and with the added bonus that only one half of them are closed at a time for cleaning meaning there is always access to the toilet. Worksop is about 5 miles away with all the main shops and facilities if you feel the need to visit them. We shall be certainly return being less than 3 hours from home. Our only issue was we arrived at about 12:45 and there was no access to the site before 1 o'clock so I had to complete a three point turn with the caravan. Fortunately there was plenty of space to manage this manoeuvre. Note to myself - REMEMBER DON'T ARRIVE BEFORE 1 o'clock
