Campsite Finder - Nottinghamshire, Central England – Camping & Caravan Direct

Nottinghamshire sits at the heart of England, and its campsites make a handy base for exploring both the county and its neighbours. The sites listed here range from quiet rural parks to places with fishing lakes on the doorstep, and several sit close to the A1 for easy onward travel.

Greenacres Caravan & Touring Park

Greenacres can be found on Lincoln Road at Tuxford, near Newark. Tuxford’s position just off the A1 makes it a practical stopping point for touring outfits heading north or south, with the wider Newark area within easy reach.

Orchard Park Touring Caravan & Camping Park

Also at Tuxford, Orchard Park occupies a setting on Marnham Road. The park caters for both touring caravans and tents, and shares the same convenient access to the A1 corridor as its neighbour.

Smeaton’s Lakes Caravan and Fishing Park

Smeaton’s Lakes stands on the Great North Road at Newark. As the name suggests, fishing is part of the appeal here, with the lakes available to visitors who want to combine a camping stay with time on the bank.

Thorntons Holt Camping Park

Thorntons Holt is located at Stragglethorpe, near Radcliffe-on-Trent. This puts it within striking distance of Nottingham itself, making it a reasonable choice for those who want countryside surroundings without being far from the city.

Formans Bridge Caravan Park

Formans Bridge lies at Sutton St. James, near Spalding in South Lincolnshire. Though listed alongside the Nottinghamshire sites, it sits across the county boundary and suits those exploring the southern Lincolnshire fens.

Choosing a base

The sites around Tuxford and Newark work well for travellers using the A1, while Thorntons Holt offers the closest link to Nottingham. For anyone heading east towards the Lincolnshire coast or the fens, Formans Bridge provides an alternative starting point.
