Campsites for hikers in Sherwood Forest

·

Sherwood Forest draws hikers for a reason. The trails wind beneath ancient oaks and through open glades, with the earthy scent of leaf litter and moss underfoot. If you're after a proper camping experience with a focus on hiking, you’ll find over 390 options here that put the paths right at your tent flap. Average nightly prices hover around £115, but you can pitch up for as little as £9 if you don’t mind pared-back facilities. Campsites like White Peak Camping (203 reviews), Burrs Manor Wild Camping (70 reviews), and Cuckoo Farm Campsite (60 reviews) come recommended by seasoned walkers. Expect hot showers, campfires, and toilets at most sites, with fishing, horseback-riding, and the odd swim available nearby. Pack your boots, bring your tin mug, and get ready to explore—Sherwood’s trails are worth every muddy step.

4. Lakeside Fishing Cabins

3 units · Glamping · Lincolnshire, East Midlands
Beautiful Adults only peaceful site, open all year round. We purchased this peaceful secluded 15 acre piece of land, consisting of a 3 acre lake, in early 2015. Our beautiful Log Cabin (KINGFISHER) was completed in May 2017 and the static homes style lodges, (LAVENDER AND SUNFLOWER) in April 2021. Kingfisher is a more rustic vibe with log burner and oil filled radiators for heating and Lavender and Sunflower are more modern vibe with gas central heating. Lavender and Sunflower both have ramp access. They all have their own personal jetty and veranda to fish from. You can also fish anywhere around the lake as we do not allow day tickets. Kingfisher has 3 bedrooms, so sleeps 3 singles or 3 couples. The other two have 2 bedrooms, so sleeps just 2 singles or 2 couples. It is such a peaceful haven. All your troubles just disappear when you arrive. The calming beauty of the lake is inspiring. We want this to become our very own nature reserve, encouraging nesting of all kinds to mature to full potential. We want you to share on our journey and progress along the way. We don’t look on this as a business, but a ‘home from home’. It is our secretive safe haven, nestled nicely in-between Boston and Skegness in a peaceful surrounding – there is no traffic apart from the occasional Spitfire or Lancaster flying by! Also, depending on what time of year, the occasional combine harvester or tractor working the surrounding fields. Please note that our fishing village and cabin site are for adults only, no children or pets are allowed. We may welcome well behaved and experienced fishing people from the age of 15 years upwards. Please ask beforehand. SITE ADDRESS: LAKESIDE FISHING LODGES, COWBROADS LANE, OLD LEAKE, BOSTON. LINCOLNSHIRE. PE22 9RD.
