The campervan is the ultimate all-rounder. Effortlessly practical and built for freedom, it’s just as at home navigating tight city streets as it is exploring the heart of the countryside.
Tallington sits on the banks of the River Welland in south Lincolnshire, just 3 km north of the market town of Stamford and roughly 150 km north of London. Though small, this village is a perfect launchpad for exploring one of England's most rewarding touring regions. Burghley House, the grand Elizabethan mansion set in parkland designed by Capability Brown, stands only 4 km to the south, while Rutland Water Nature Reserve — one of the largest artificial lakes in Europe — lies 16 km to the west, offering cycling trails and osprey-watching hides. The Deepings, a cluster of historic villages along the Welland, begin barely 5 km to the east, and the cathedral city of Peterborough is 18 km south-east, home to Peterborough Cathedral with its remarkable painted wooden ceiling. Flat, open fenland roads stretch in every direction, making the area wonderfully easy to navigate in a motorhome or larger vehicle. Lanes are wide, gradients are gentle, and you can cover ground quickly between stops. Hiring a campervan through Yescapa connects you with local owners who know these roads well and can recommend quiet overnight spots along the Welland valley. Whether you are heading north into the Lincolnshire Wolds or south towards the Nene Valley, Tallington gives you a calm, countryside base with excellent road links in every direction. A campervan trip from here puts the best of the East Midlands within easy reach.
Tallington comes alive in late summer and early autumn. The Burghley Horse Trials, held each September just south of the village, draw thousands of visitors and create a brilliant atmosphere across the area. June and July bring long daylight hours ideal for exploring Rutland Water or cycling the fenland trails by campervan. Spring is equally rewarding, with quieter roads and wildflower meadows along the Welland. Booking your motorhome hire through Yescapa outside peak weekends often means better availability and more competitive peer-to-peer pricing from local owners. Tallington works well year-round, but early booking for September is wise.
Tallington is the perfect base for exploring the region by motorhome or campervan. Here are our 6 must-see getaways
Just 18 km south-east, Peterborough offers a full day out. Visit Peterborough Cathedral and stroll through the revamped Cathedral Square, then explore Flag Fen Archaeology Park on the city's eastern edge. Campervan parking is straightforward at the Riverside car park, and you can easily return to Tallington the same evening.
Head 16 km west to Rutland Water, where a 40 km cycling trail loops the reservoir. Stop at Normanton Church, standing picturesquely at the water's edge, and visit the Anglian Water Birdwatching Centre for osprey sightings. Several campervan-friendly car parks sit around the shore with level hardstanding.
Drive 120 km north through the Lincolnshire countryside to Lincoln. Explore Lincoln Cathedral and the medieval quarter around Steep Hill, then visit the International Bomber Command Centre on the southern approach. Motorhome parking is available at the West Common, and the route passes through Sleaford for a lunch stop.
A 145 km drive east brings you to the Norfolk Broads. Begin at Wroxham, the gateway to the waterways, and continue to Ranworth Broad for its floating wildlife centre. The route passes through Thetford Forest, ideal for a campervan overnight. Broad-side car parks accommodate larger vehicles comfortably.
Cover 210 km north-west to reach the Yorkshire Dales. Take in Fountains Abbey near Ripon, walk the Aysgarth Falls trail, and drive the scenic route over Buttertubs Pass. Campervan pitches are plentiful around Hawes and Settle, and the A1 makes the first half of the journey quick and easy.
A 250 km loop heads east then north along the Norfolk coastline. Explore the seal colony at Blakeney Point, walk the boardwalk at Holkham Beach, and sample Cromer crab in the seaside town itself. Motorhome aires and small campsites dot the coast road, making overnight stops simple throughout.

The countryside around Tallington offers a good selection of campsites suited to both campervans and motorhomes. Most sites provide electric hook-ups, hardstanding pitches, and modern toilet and shower blocks. Several sit along the Welland valley or near Rutland Water, giving you easy access to walking and cycling routes. If you prefer a quieter pitch, look towards the smaller certified sites in the surrounding villages.
Tallington itself has limited formal parking, but the surrounding towns offer practical options for larger vehicles. Stamford, just 3 km south, has several car parks that accept motorhomes during the day. Overnight parking in lay-bys is generally tolerated along quieter fenland roads, though always check local signage. For longer stays, dedicated campervan stopovers near Rutland Water and Peterborough provide secure, level spaces.
We have just returned from our 11 day trip in Jean’s fantastic camper van. Thanks to Jean and Emma’s good English the whole experience was very easy and relaxed. The van had everything we needed for our trip, touring parts of Germany, Austria, and France. As newcomers to camper van life we learned so much and were able to camp without the need to plug in to electric for days on end thanks to the great solar and battery system on the van and the on board water and waste tanks. Many thanks for a great holiday Jean and family! Thanks from Gareth & Samantha!
Thank you for an amazing holiday. We can't recommend this van enough. From the very first communication everything was 100%. The van was clean and had everything we needed for a three week trip. Everything was explained in detail and we were given advice and ideas for places to visit. We will be back again.
Had a wonderful trip! With Thibault’s guidance, you're in safe hands. This compact and comfortable van packs a big punch while remaining extremely easy to drive and park. I highly recommend this van and owner combo!
First let me say that Ricardo is a great owner, he was very good at explaining everything to us, gave advice on the trip and was always available to answer any questions we had. He even was understanding of our delayed return. 5/5 The van is as described in the ad, working perfectely, comfortable to drive worh all the amenities one would need in a van. We traveled all around portugal and overall enjoyed our time bery much. Definitely recommend.
Absolutely loved staying in Alfreds campervan. The decor was beautiful. It had everything we needed, a perfect space for two people for time in nature travelling. It was so good having a fridge on the road. He answered any questions I had and the pick up/ drop off was great. Would definitely love to rent it again in the future when we come back to Spain. Thank you!
Patrick was very friendly and went above and beyond his duty to make sure everything went smoothly. He even took us to the station after we dropped the van off. We would highly recommend him.
