Campervan stopover at Jeskyns Community Woodland

Stay overnight in the heart of the forest, immersed in nature, and create the summer travel adventure you’ll want to write home about. 

From 16 July to 14 September 2026, campervans and motorhomes are welcome to stay overnight at pre-booked bays at the main car park in Jeskyns Community Woodlands. Stay from 12.00pm on the day of arrival, leave by 11.30am on day of departure and soak up stunning views of dark skies and the surrounding forest throughout your stay.

Our stopovers are only for motorhomes and campervans that have their own onboard facilities for sleeping, cooking and waste, so we can keep the site clean and sanitary.
