  • Small, peaceful touring site with five scenic lakes
  • A 10-minute drive from Retford and 15 minutes from Worksop
  • Play area, shop and restaurant; angling and barbecues permitted
Tote your caravan along to the small, friendly touring site at Torworth Lakes. With five peaceful lakes, a farm shop, a play area and a restaurant, this spot is very well-equipped for anglers, families and outdoorsy folks. Another plus for this park? The location. Surrounded by the Nottinghamshire countryside, it's close to some of Nottinghamshire’s most-visited attractions and a fab base for touring National Trust sites, historic market towns and kids’ adventure centres. Have a chat with the team about the main spots to visit – the staff here have all sorts of smashing suggestions up their sleeves. You could also ask them about places to eat, but don’t be surprised if they recommend the on-site restaurant, which serves up mouth-watering grub, including breakfasts and cakes. There’s also a well-stocked farm shop for grabbing ingredients – think artisan bread, in-season fruit and veg, and locally sourced meat – particularly handy if you’ll be making the most of the fact that barbecues are allowed. Day fishing with purpose-built pegs is also permitted at this park, so anglers can sit down at the well-stocked carp lakes to have a go at reeling in a variety of carp such as tench, barbel, koi, rudd, roach and orfe. Catch one of the biggest specimens, and an award comes in the form of an edible treat. There is one toilet and a separate shower room on site, as well as wifi.

What customers say

A cracking spot, peaceful with ample private pitches, often with hedges & lake views. Staff are a ripper, cafe's got good grub, and kids' play park's a hit. Downsides: toilet/shower facilities are a bit tight, sometimes low hot water & cleanliness issues. Fishing lakes need a spruce-up and can flood. A bit of road noise & the odd loud do.

Liked Loved everything about the campsite, it's a beautiful place, with a gorgeous cafe with outside decking area and beautiful fishing lakes, we had a great pitch, hardstanding with both water and waste, this small site was perfect for us, a middle aged/older couple with our little dog.

Disliked Arrived around 5pm to find gates locked, we had already rang ahead to say we would be arriving after 4pm when the cafe closes and staff must all leave for the day. My husband had to walk into the campsite and luckily managed to get the gate code off another camper so we could let ourselves in and find out own pitch but everything was fine from there on.

Liked Absolutely quiet (road nearby is not too loud), very relaxed. We arrived at the end of the season, only 2 extra pitches were in use. We were lucky, since not many people needed the bathroom. Probably, when all pitches are booked, it'd be waiting in line (only one toilet). Bathroom and toilet have separate buildings, both were pretty clean and the shower is actually very good. Pitches are wide, and the hedge around it give a sense of privacy, without confinement. Onsite restaurant is fantastic (breakfast, lunches...) and its adjacent shop is fun to browse through. Can only recommend if you're looking for a sense of tranquility.

Liked Not our first time visiting here. Lovely peace full site. The fishing ponds seem to have been alot better maintained since we visited in May. Will definitely be visiting again.

Disliked No personal contact with owners other than check in. More than one toilet would be better.

Local attractions

If it’s green space you’re after, get to the National Trust’s Clumber Park (20 minutes’ drive) for cycling and walking on trails amid farmland and woodland, then wander down by the river at the Idle Valley Nature Reserve (five minutes). Got kids eager to eye up animals? Yomp to the Yorkshire Wildlife Park (15 minutes) and mingle with more than 300 different types of species. If you don’t have any nippers to think about, head to historic market towns like Bawtry (five minutes), Retford (10 minutes) and Newark (35 minutes) for grownup adventures. Roving around religious architecture is also within reach at Rufford Abbey (35 minutes) and Southwell Minster (40 minutes).
