Bell tents in Sherwood Forest guide

Overview

Steeped in more than a thousand years of history, myth, and legend, Sherwood Forest is so much more than a natural reserve. A former royal hunting ground and the stomping ground of the mythical Robin Hood, the forest lands sprawl over more than 30 miles from Nottingham to Workshop, encompassing three regions, a national nature reserve, and numerous parks, abbeys, and mediaeval ruins. Campers can enjoy four seasons of outdoor activities against a backdrop of spring wildflowers or fall foliage, depending on the season, while the annual Robin Hood Festival (July and August) features family-friendly activities all summer long.

Where to go

The Dukeries

Rolling green fields and sumptuous Ducal estates make up the northernmost region of Sherwood Forest. Clumber Park, with its National Trust estate and serpentine lake, and Thoresby Park, with its miles of woodland walks and artisan shops, are the regional highlights. Bring your caravan or campervan for a weekend break in the English countryside—you’ll never be far from a family campground or caravan park.

Heart of Sherwood

Sherwood’s central heartland is Robin Hood country at its best. Explore the Sherwood Forest Country Park, where you can visit the Major Oak (iconic home of Robin Hood and his merry men), hike and cycle along miles of trails, or ride the Sherwood Forest Railway. Woodland walks and bike rides are also on offer at nearby Sherwood Pines Forest Park, while Rufford Country Park is home to the 12th-century Rufford Abbey.

Byron Country

The southernmost slice of Sherwood Forest sits just north of the city of Nottingham, making it the ideal escape for urban campers. Hike along the Robin Hood Way or bike part of the National Cycle Route 6 through Bestwood Country Park, follow in the footsteps of the Prince of Thieves in Thieves Wood, or make like a modern-day Robin Hood and go glamping in a treehouse in the woods.
