Pitches on site (added by manager 01 Sep 2022)

One of the spacious hardstanding pitches with water, waste and electricity

Small and serene family-run site with scenic fishing lakes
A 10-minute drive from Retford and 15 minutes from Worksop
Play area, wifi, shop and café; angling and barbecues permitted

Tote your caravan along to the small and secluded family-run site at Torworth Lakes and settle down at a spacious pitch overlooking a selection of lush fishing lakes. Another plus for this park? The location. Close to some of Nottinghamshire’s most-visited attractions, it’s 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 café, 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 barbecues are allowed. Fishing is also permitted at this park, so anglers can sit down at purpose-built pegs and 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. All sorts of caravanning preferences are catered for at this park as a handful of the pitches are enclosed hardstanding options with electric hook-ups, water and waste, while a further few are on grass with electricity and water. Kids have a playground to check out, and wifi is available as well. Please note there's only one toilet and shower on site, so bear this in mind when booking.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Lovely play park for my 3 year old, nice and quiet site good option if you like small sites. Cafe on site, and some nice walks nearby.

Disliked: We felt that the facilities more so the toilet wasn’t great, more because of the fact you have to walk between two large ponds to get to it in the pitch black as there’s no lights at night on the site which is so dangerous. Also the chemical disposal hose is broken so water spurts everywhere when you’re trying to clean the loo. There’s also some issues with the waste disposals on our pitch it was so high we couldn’t empty our drain properly.

Powered grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Nice pitches with electric/ water but not waste outlet Private ish pitch grass or hand-standing , the chemical waste area not great for emptying as was awkward position and hose pipe was broken, fishing ponds were ok but need attention, onsite cafe really nice and also child’s playground was handy, a little more attention to detail this would be a great site , oh the gate locks are a real pain getting in or out after the cafe closes

Disliked: Wifi non existent Locks on gates real pain Only 1 toilet / shower and long walk to them in the dark as no lights

Local attractions

This site’s in rather a rural part of the country, so visitors have access to pretty parks, historic market towns and attractive architecture set in the middle of leafy countryside. 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).
