Map of the UK

Oldcotes is a small village in the Bassetlaw district of Nottinghamshire, England, set in gently rolling countryside on the county’s northern fringe. It sits close to attractive green spaces such as Langold Country Park and the historic estate of Hodsock Priory, so the immediate landscape mixes farmland, woods and small lakes and attracts walkers and garden visitors.

Historically the area has strong agricultural roots with later influence from nearby coal‑mining and light industry, and today the village retains a quiet, community feel with village activities and local events. Many residents commute to nearby towns such as Worksop or to regional centres like Sheffield and Doncaster, while Hodsock’s gardens and local countryside help give Oldcotes a steady trickle of visitors and seasonal interest.
