About Carburton Lodge South

A stylishly restored gate lodge with after-hours access to Clumber Park.

Built in the late 18th-century of ashlar limestone blocks, Carburton Lodge South is one of the earliest buildings to survive on Clumber Park and is full of character. It’s small and snug so is perfect for couples.

This compact cottage is a delightful mix of historic charm and practical comfort. The cosy open-plan bedroom/sitting room is furnished in a contemporary style with a log burning stove and 4’6 double bed. While the simple kitchen has everything you need to rustle up tasty lunches and hearty evening meals. Outside there’s a fully enclosed lawned garden for you to enjoy, along with a small patio by the back door.

Located at one of the original entrances onto the estate, the cottage is perfect base from which to explore the 3,800-acre Clumber Park. The house, once the estate of the Dukes of Newcastle, was demolished in 1938 but there are many glimpses of its grand past still to see, including the Gothic-style chapel and the Walled Kitchen Gardens. The cottage is approximately a five-minute drive or 20-minute walk from the main visitor hub and just a short distance from the small hamlet of Carburton. 

Further afield, Sherwood Forest, home to the Major Oak of Robin Hood fame, is a 20-minute drive away and you can reach the magnificent Peak District National Park in an hour. If you want to take in a bit more cultural history on your holiday, the historic city of Lincoln and the National Trust properties of The Workhouse, Hardwick Hall and Belton House are all within an hour’s drive.

About the Acorn rating

Back to top

To help find the best cottage for you, we have created our own quality rating system for our holiday cottages called the Acorn rating. Ranging from 1-5 Acorns, the rating gives you an indication of a property’s facilities, fixtures and fittings, with five being the highest quality level. The Acorn rating is not connected to any other industry rating system that may be used for holiday cottages and is only to be used as a guide that covers location, style of interior and the facilities you may be looking for. We do not set our cottage pricing based on the Acorn rating we have given a cottage as all our cottages are of an individual nature. Therefore, we recommend that all factors are considered when making your choice. In addition, some of our cottages are curated to be sympathetic to their time period. This means that they might not have all of the aspects of modern living, but impress in so many other ways.

1 Acorn: simple living accommodation with basic furniture and fixtures fit for purpose and clean. Running water and a toilet are provided. There could be some limitations to heating and washing facilities – details of these will be stated clearly on the cottage's webpage. Bedding, linen and towels are supplied with a few exceptions, which are again clearly stated). Facilities for basic catering and living are provided. In general, a 1 Acorn cottage does not have WiFi.

2 Acorn: a mid-quality range of furniture and fittings. Bathroom facilities are basic or there may be a high number of guests to bathroom ratio depending on the size of the cottage. Very few 2 Acorn cottages have WiFi and the kitchen white goods and washing facilities are basic. Bedding, linen and towels are supplied in all 2-5 Acorn cottages.

3 Acorn: a good, standard offer. Generally it is correctly proportioned for the number of guests but could have a few compromises, for example a small kitchen, or a lower bathroom to guest ratio. The variety of white goods available will be better than a 2 Acorn cottage.

4 Acorn: these cottages have more premium furniture, fittings and lighting. Additionally the ratio of bathrooms to guests is likely to be higher, and the bathrooms would be more likely to have separate and spacious showers instead of showers over baths.

5 Acorn: a luxury accommodation offer with very few limiting factors. This is the highest offer available. It is well-equipped and has spacious facilities throughout the cottage or is set within an extraordinary location or building. The furniture is of a high standard, and has real comfort for modern living.
