About the site


Daphne's Orchard have been welcoming guests for a few years now, and many return year after year! The site is found on the edge of a quiet village with thatched cottages and a welcoming village pub. It's a place to experience country life and a great location if you'd like to go off and explore. The pond is a focal point of the orchard with an abundance of wildlife, you might even have the chance to see kingfishers. Nestled into your relaxing spot, it's easy to forget that you're close to all major road routes, and just a mile and a half from junction 24 off the M1. East Midlands Airport is also just 3 miles away. While this is a tranquil space, there could occasionally be some distant sounds from these at peak times. Choose to pitch a tent or bring your caravan or motorhome on the spacious field. There are a number of excellent hardstanding and grass pitches, some with electric hook ups.
