Caravanners can join the action in Britain’s summer of sport

This summer marks a major milestone for women’s sport and headlining it all is the Women’s Rugby World Cup, hosted in England for the first time. 

From 22 August to 27 September, matches will light up stadiums in Manchester, Bristol, York, Brighton, Exeter, Northampton, Sunderland and London – where the final will be played at the Allianz Stadium in Twickenham.

Cricket lovers should also expect an action-packed summer, with England Women facing India across several major cities, alongside the Vitality Blast Women’s Final on 27 July at The Kia Oval.

You may also be able to secure tickets to the highly anticipated London Athletics Meet, which returns on 19 July at the London Stadium. Having already sold over 50,000 tickets, the event officially cements itself as the biggest one-day athletics event in the world.

Located only a short 30-minute drive from Trent Bridge stadium, this five-star touring park is nestled within 150 acres of scenic Leicestershire countryside. 

The clubhouse serves as the heart of the holiday park, featuring its own bar and tea room where you can enjoy breakfast and daily lunches. It offers a welcoming atmosphere for everyone, with a fully stocked bar – perfect for celebrating England’s win (fingers crossed!). Pet owners can also appreciate the dedicated pet-friendly lounge, so your four-legged friends can relax alongside you. 

Throughout the year, the clubhouse also hosts live music and tribute nights to keep guests entertained.
