  • Spacious semi-rural site 10 minutes' drive from Mansfield
  • Less than half an hour's drive from Sherwood Forest and Clumber Park
  • Well-stocked carp fishing lake next to the site
A packing list for folk heading to Tall Trees Touring Park: comfy shoes, fishing kit, bus pass, kids, dogs (these last two only if you already have them – no need to acquire them specially). This family-friendly and dog-welcoming park is in a semi-rural spot a 10-minute drive from the centre of Mansfield, ticking holiday boxes for easy access to both urban amenities and fresh-air attractions. The comfy shoes and/or bus pass are useful things to have with you as there’s a bus stop just outside the park for forays into town, and lots of useful bits and bobs within walking distance (a family-friendly pub, fast food outlets, supermarket and indoor play centre among them). Those shoes may well also come in handy for lengthy rural rambles in the local area: around Sherwood Forest or Clumber Park, perhaps, or taking in the historic buildings of Hardwick Hall or Newstead Abbey. And the fishing kit? That’s for those who fancy heading to the lake just by the park for some quiet time gazing out over the Maun Valley Nature Reserve and (hopefully) catching some carp. Facilities on site include a playground to keep the kids amused (and/or tire them out), a small library, tourist information point and well-kept toilet block with accessible facilities and baby changing.

What customers say

This is a clean, well-maintained site with friendly and helpful staff. Pitches are spacious and level, and facilities, particularly toilets and showers, are consistently praised for their cleanliness. The site is conveniently located for local attractions, shops, and pubs, offering a peaceful atmosphere despite its urban proximity. While generally positive, some visitors noted a lack of showers during peak times and found speed bumps on entry challenging.

Gail W.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked A nice flat pitch. Facilities were very clean and grounds well kept. Friendly and helpful wardens. Good location for Sherwood Forest and other tourist attractions. Though the site was full I had a spacious pitch and did not feel overwhelmed with noisy families.

Disliked The site would benefit from a couple more showers and perhaps a camping essentials shop on site. I would have liked to be able to walk to the lake but this was for residents only. The website advertises a small library and freezer block facilities but this was locked up.

From the manager: Hi Gail, thank you for your review, just to let you know, should you book another stay with us, the lake is open to the public, and for fishing, we just ask on the rules for people not to wander around the holiday homes willy nilly and for children not to play around them.
There are some benches around the lake for people to sit on and relax.
The Library and Freezer shed now operates on a key deposit system, as some campers were leaving the fridge and bookshelves dirty and untidy.
A £10.00 deposit is now charged for a key for the length of the stay and is returned to the customer after checking things have been left clean and tidy, these are available from the office @ number 16.
If ever in doubt of anything, please always ask either myself or Mick and we will be happy to help.
Wishing you happy camping and hoping to see you again soon.
Kind regards
Karen @Talltrees

Liked Lovely little site, very close to shops and takeaways. The owners are lovely and welcoming and show you to your plot. Facilities are nice and clean. Includes two toilets and a shower in the ladies.

Disliked You’re not able to walk very far due to the private areas of static caravans. But it was nice enough to stay near my tent.

Wendy D.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Meet and greet. Washing up area clean and tidy.

Disliked One shower between all site. Ladies.
On looking around our pitch there was a lot of doggy poo.
It states that you should keep dog on leash at all times. This maybe needs to be adhere to the residents who permanently live there as I saw a boxer brown,white. Pooping on the gravel opposite our stay,this was not picked up. Cars to fast if a child runs out.

Local attractions

Take a spot at Tall Trees for all sorts of leisurely local walks: stride around Robin Hood’s old stomping ground, 450-acre Sherwood Forest, or take in one of the trails through the woods and around the lake at National Trust-owned Clumber Park (bike hire can be had here if you prefer to pedal). Both are less than half an hour’s drive from the park. Creswell Crags, 20 minutes’ drive away, is an enclosed limestone gorge and cave system that’s home to the UK’s only known Ice Age cave art. There’s a great museum here, and rock art cave tours can be had in the spring and summer months. If it’s historic buildings you’re after, head to 16th-century Hardwick Hall, or to medieval Newstead Abbey (home to a collection of objects belonging to former resident Lord Byron). Rufford Abbey Country Park is a good place for woodland walks around the abbey ruins.
