About Landal Rockingham Forest
A tranquil getaway, surrounded by nature awaits you at Landal Rockingham Forest, where their wide range of lodges are ideal for couples or families. Great those who don’t want to leave their four-legged friends behind as well, Landal’s woodland setting provides means it provides a range of natural trails to be explored. And with plenty of activities available in nearby beautiful Wansford and Northamptonshire, what’s not to love?
Whilst the gorgeous contemporary cabins at Landal Rockingham Forest will provide you with everything you could need on your holiday, the on-site shop is undoubtedly handy to have! So, when you want to cook up a storm but can’t find that one secret ingredient, head on over to see what they have in stock.
Set up a smaller base at the Chesterton lodge, where guests can relax over two bedrooms: the king-size master bedroom with en-suite shower room, and the twin bedroom, which can be turned into a super-king if you’d prefer. Both are also complete with widescreen televisions, so there’s no need to be arguing about what to watch! Catch up during the day in the open plan lounge and dining area or get the party going at night by hooking up your electronic devices to the Bluetooth speakers. But the real gem of Chesterton, as well as the other accommodation types mentioned here, are the hot tubs. Chesterton’s happens to be a jacuzzi hot tub, so is perfect for relaxing in after a day’s exploring whilst admiring the wonders of the woodland in the evening.
But if booking the Chesterton lodge means you have to leave family behind, why not book a larger version? The Yarwell lodge is a particular favourite of ours, sleeping six people within a king-size master bedroom (with en-suite shower room), king-sized bed (with en-suite bathroom), and a twin with en-suite shower room. If the weather isn’t holding up, there’s enough room to relax inside over the open plan lounge and dining area. But when the sun finally decides to shine, head outside onto your private decking area, complete with outside seating and a BBQ stand. Like Chesterton, dogs are also allowed at this lodge (for a small extra charge)!
There’s plenty to explore outside of the forest too, many of which are ideal for families. Enjoy the wonders of the great outdoors at Sacrewell Farm and Country Centre, where visitors can explore the restored eighteenth century watermill and kids can meet the resident animals or be let loose inside the indoor soft play area. Well-behaved dogs who are on holiday in the Yarwell lodge with you are also welcome on-site, and at just a five-minute drive away, no-one will have enough time to get restless on the journey! Feel free to fuel up at the café with a slice of cake and some coffee before picking up a souvenir from the on-site shop and remember to check their events page before your visit to see what else is on.
If your family prefers the wilder side to life, Wicksteed Park is a great choice and although it’s roughly a forty-minute drive away, it’s worth it to spend the day there, particularly for those with small children. They’ll love experiencing their first rollercoaster ride on the clown coaster, or those a bit older might want to experience the dizzying heights of the sway rider! For a different kind of encounter, guests can also visit the Aviary to see beautiful birds of all shapes, colours and sizes, or check in with Meerkat Manor to see what the meerkats are up to. Double check the events page before your visit to see what’s on, from their very own Oktoberfest to Wicky’s Mini Monsters Ball, there really is something for all the family.

Landal Rockingham Forest Reviews
44 reviews from guests who stayed at Landal Rockingham Forest
"Perfect room, everything you could need for your trip"
"just perfect"
"Excellent place to just relax and unwined. Lovely views and lots of paths in the woodlands to explore with the dogs."
"Our Landal Rockingham Forest review: Really charming little lodge, loved the cosy vibe. Just wish there was a full-length mirror and the smoke alarm was a bit less sensitive when cooking."
"We had such a lovely stay! The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, which was great for cooking. The smart TVs in each room were a nice touch and the hot tub was just perfect. The views are absolutely breathtaking and the peaceful surroundings make it really special. Cant wait to come back!"
"We decided to spend a long weekend at Rockingham Forest to visit our son in Stamford and overall, we really enjoyed it. The booking process was simple and we got regular updates, which was helpful. The lodge itself was fantastic-spotlessly clean, really spacious and the beds were super comfy, which made a big difference. We appreciated the clear signage for walks and facilities around the site. The cafes takeaway pizza was a real treat! The only downside was parking-some lodges had two spaces, but ours only had one and parking was a bit tight. Still, we had a great time and will definitely return!"
"Really enjoyed our visit, staff were friendly and welcoming throughout the place. Cheers!"
"Overall, the beds and pillows were really comfy, but the sofas felt a bit too small for everyone to lounge easily."
"Great lodges, well equipped and quality fixtures throughout. Highly recommend!"
"The lodge suited us perfectly, but a few little things would improve it-like having a dish cloth, tea towel and some washing up liquid in the kitchen. Wouldve made things easier!"
"Really enjoyed staying at the Elton, its plush and super comfy. Outdoor hot tub rocks!"
"My partner and I stayed at this place from Monday to Friday, in the Skylark lodge which has two bedrooms, each with an en suite and a hot tub outside. The hot tub was checked daily by the staff and we didnt have any issues at all. The lounge, dining area and kitchen were all open-plan, really bright and pretty spacious - super comfy too! One of our favourite features was the Bluetooth speakers built into the ceiling, which was a nice touch. The bed was really comfy and even on those warm nights, we could open the bathroom door (which doubles as a window) and the bedroom windows to get a nice breeze going. My only tiny gripe was that the bedding was a bit thick for me, but Im used to lighter covers since Im naturally a warm sleeper. We spent plenty of time exploring the local wildlife, watching planes and checking out nearby towns. Ive already planned to come back in winter for my birthday - we loved it that much and cant wait to return!"
"Rockingham really knows how to make you feel at home. From the friendly staff to the spotless cabins, everything's spot on. We love the little touches like the tea, coffee and biscuits - so thoughtful! The hot tub is perfect, always checked and ready. We've been six times and already booked for next year. Totally recommend!"
"We recently stayed at these new lodges and I have to say, the condition was top-notch. Everything looked fresh and well-maintained. The rooms were roomy enough for the two of us and the bathrooms were surprisingly well stocked - really handy! The dining area was spacious, with a lovely extending table, even for just two. The decking outside was great, big enough for relaxing, complete with a parasol, table and chairs - perfect for sunny days. What really stood out was the manual; honestly, its the most detailed one we've ever seen, covering everything from how to use the cooker to what to do if someone goes missing - full marks there! Were definitely considering trying other Landal sites, even if not all will be as pristine as this one. Overall, a really pleasant stay!"
"We had a really lovely stay at this place, tucked away in such a peaceful, private spot. The owners were super friendly and always ready to help if needed, but it never felt intrusive. The hot tub was a real treat after a long day cycling around the area. Only thing to mention is that the cottage is quite close to Stansted's flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It didnt bother us much after a while, but its worth noting if you're sensitive to noise. Overall, a great find!"
"We had such a lovely stay! The hot tub and log burner made it really special. Hosts were friendly and the quiet setting was perfect. Hope to return soon!"
"Really enjoyed the area, especially walking around all the open fields with the dogs. Lovely place!"
"We absolutely love this lodge! The undercover hot tub and the enclosed terrace are perfect for our dogs to run around safely. The beds are super comfy-huge with plush bedding and loads of pillows, which is a real treat. The lounge is cosy but could do with some cushions, though we dont mind bringing our own. A little nest of tables would be handy too. Apart from that, its pretty much perfect. Cant wait to come back next month!"
"We absolutely loved our stay! The lodge was huge and super comfy, with everything we needed. The hot tub, especially being undercover, was perfect for any weather. So much so, we asked for the same lodge again because its location is just ideal. Brilliant!"
"We absolutely love Rockingham Forest! Its perfect for unwinding, with such beautiful scenery for dog walks. The facilities are great - the outdoor bar, hot tub, sauna and showers all add to the experience. This was our third visit and wed definitely recommend it to anyone needing a proper break. Cant wait to come back!"
"A wonderful place to relax with lovely surroundings for dog walking. The cottage has excellent facilities such as the outdoor bar and hot tub, along with sauna and shower area. This was my 3rd visit to Rockingham Forest and I highly recommend it for anyone looking to switch off and relax."
"We stayed in a spacious, super comfy lodge that felt really private since its tucked away in a small cul-de-sac. The beds were top-notch and everything was spotless. Having a dog with us was easy with the little welcome pack. Honestly, its the best lodge we've been in!"
"Really enjoyed the stay, will come back!"
"Overall, we had a decent stay, though a few things could be improved. The downstairs loo was a bit of a letdown and we noticed some basics missing, like a grill pan and enough washing supplies. Still, it wasnt too bad overall!"
"Really enjoyed our stay, the lodge was comfy and the scenery perfect for relaxing walks."
"We had a lovely time here. Sharon and Robert really go above and beyond to make sure everythings perfect. Its peaceful and cosy and even after visiting twice, were already planning our next stay. Cant wait!"
"We loved the lodge! Its really spacious and has everything you need, especially for cooking. The dog welcome pack was a lovely touch and the info booklet was super helpful. Only tiny issue-no drawers in the bedrooms, so a small unit inside the wardrobes would be handy. Well definitely return later in the year!"
"We had a lovely stay at this good place! The location is stunning and very private, perfect for some peace and quiet. The owners are genuinely friendly and always happy to help if needed, without intruding on your space. The hot tub was a real highlight after a long day of cycling - such a treat! The only thing to note is that the cottage is right under Stansteds flight path, so theres quite a bit of aircraft noise. It took us a couple of hours to get used to it, but honestly, it didnt ruin our break at all. Definitely recommend!"
"We celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary with a weekend stay at The Kingscliff and brought our dog along. It was perfect because there was enough room for his crate and plenty of space for us to relax. I really appreciated the gate at the front door, so we could leave the doors open without worries and George could wander freely. This isnt a budget spot, but if youre after peace and quality, its definitely worth considering. Wed come back!"
"Had a lovely week here. Weather was beautiful. Location was superb. Holiday Lodge was immaculate. Highly recommended."
"We had a great time!!"
"Had an amazing holiday. Love how eco and environmentally friendly the site is"
"We had a brilliant stay. The lodge was a really good size with plenty of space for the children to play. Loved the hot tub. Enjoyed watching all the animals around the park. Only thing missing was a childrens play area, but there is loads of space for them to run around and play in the fields. The shop was really well stocked and reasonably priced."
"Our lodge was wonderful and the peaceful surroundings were lovely
Having food delivered from the little shop was a bonus,the ladies were very cheerful and helpful
The only little problem for us was getting in and out of the hottub,but didn't deter from our enjoyment!"
"Second visit for us at this 5 star parkā¦. Perfect in every way, would highly recommend to anyone"
"The location is very peaceful, lodge spotlessly clean, very well equipped with everything you need
Definitely will book again"
"Amazing place to stay, so peaceful and quiet. Highly recommended stay."
"Lovely, relaxing break in an extremely well equipped lodge. Spotless! Jacuzzi great treat! Very warm in lodge but hottest day of the year!"
"This is a place to go and relax and do nothing, the lodges are lovely and the surroundings are kept lovely and clean. This was our second year there and I would definitely go back"
"Very clean, modern and very accommodating"
"Fantastic week .the castor lodge was to die for ,well stocked kitchen love the wine fridge nice touch fresh milk in the fridge waiting very comfortable stay so lovely to unwind and chill out. the walks in the grounds are fantastic lovely seen all the wildlife .. there is a lovely little coffee & cake shop/on site shop full of anything you need very lovely and friendly lady in there .. all staff are so nice and helpful friendly. Definitely would stay again five-star accommodation."
"Great lodge, very clean and lovely quiet surroundings."
"The site has 56 high spec lodges surrounded by forest, only just over a year old so all in immaculate condition. The grounds are vast and all very well kept . It looks like the site is going to be developed with further lodges in the future as the reception area and a small shop selling provisions is 1 mile from the current lodges, you drive down a well lit tarmac road to get there. Site is very peaceful as there are no other facilities . Lots of nice walks from lodges and dogs are allowed in some lodges. Our only criticism was check in was a bit chaotic. Check in was 4pm, we arrived at 3-40pm to be told along with everyone else that lodges weren't ready, with limited parking available this caused a few problems . As you might expect everyone started to gather at 4pm and a long queue formed. We finally got our key at 4-30pm. We have stayed in lots of lodges over the course of years and this has never occurred before, so I hope they can sort this problem out as we would definitely like to return as the park is in a great place for visiting the Rutland area"
