Why hire a campervan in Nottingham?
Nottingham — a city worth exploring
Nottingham is a city of surprises. It wears its Robin Hood fame lightly, but dig deeper and you will find a creative, independent-minded place that is ideal as a starting point for a campervan adventure. The compact city centre is easy to navigate on foot — park up, then walk from Nottingham Castle down through the Lace Market to Old Market Square, the largest public square in the UK.
What makes Nottingham special for campervan travellers is its location. You are less than an hour from the Peak District's open moorland and limestone dales, 30 minutes from the ancient trails of Sherwood Forest, and within easy reach of Lincoln, Leicester and the Trent Valley. A campervan gives you the freedom to wake up in the city and fall asleep under the trees — all in the same day.
The city itself is full of character. Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, built into the caves beneath the castle, claims to be the oldest inn in England. Rock City has hosted legendary gigs since 1980. Green's Windmill, a restored working mill, offers panoramic city views. Wollaton Hall is an Elizabethan grand house surrounded by a deer park where fallow and red deer roam freely — a fantastic morning walk before hitting the road. With Goboony, you can find a campervan from a local owner in areas like Beeston, Arnold or West Bridgford, collect the keys and be on your way within the hour.
The best time of year to hire a motorhome in Nottingham
Late spring through early autumn — May to September — is the ideal window for a campervan trip from Nottingham. Days are long and the surrounding countryside is at its best for walking, cycling and outdoor exploring. The Robin Hood Festival fills Sherwood Forest with archery and medieval fun in August, while the Dot to Dot music festival brings emerging bands to venues across the city in May.
If you prefer a quieter trip, April and October offer mild weather and lower campsite rates. Autumn is especially rewarding around Clumber Park and the Dukeries, where the woodland turns golden. Winter visits are possible but you will want a well-insulated campervan — the city's Christmas market on Old Market Square is worth the colder temperatures.

Popular motorhome trips from Nottingham for couples
Romantic escape to Bakewell and Chatsworth
Drive west from Nottingham into the Peak District for a couple's getaway. Bakewell is a charming market town known for its famous pudding, and nearby Chatsworth House offers grand gardens and riverside walks. The Monsal Trail is perfect for a scenic cycle ride through old railway tunnels. Around 58 km each way.
Canal-side retreat to Southwell
Just 25 km northeast of Nottingham, the quiet minster town of Southwell is home to one of England's finest Norman cathedrals and the Workhouse, a National Trust site with a remarkable story. Browse the craft shops, sample local food and enjoy the peace of the Nottinghamshire countryside in your campervan.
Couples' weekend in Stamford
Head 70 km east to Stamford, one of England's finest stone-built towns. Wander the Georgian streets, visit Burghley House — a treasure of Elizabethan architecture — and enjoy a long pub lunch. The town sits on the edge of the Rutland countryside, ideal for quiet evening drives in a campervan.
Popular adventure trips from Nottingham
Creswell Crags and the Welbeck Estate
Drive 40 km north to Creswell Crags, a limestone gorge where Ice Age cave art was discovered. Explore the caves on a guided tour, then head to the Welbeck Estate for artisan food and the Portland Collection gallery. A wild and fascinating landscape that feels worlds away from the city.
Mountain biking at Sherwood Pines
Sherwood Pines Forest Park, 30 km north, has three cycling trails winding through over 3,300 acres of woodland. After a day on the trails, Go Ape offers tree-top adventures for those with energy to spare. The on-site campsite welcomes campervans and has a bike wash and service area.
White water and watersports at Holme Pierrepont
The National Water Sports Centre at Holme Pierrepont Country Park is just 5 km from the city centre. Try white water rafting, kayaking or paddleboarding on the lake, then park your campervan at the on-site campsite. A proper adventure base without leaving greater Nottingham.
