Hi, I'm looking for campsites in or very near to Kettering can anyone help.

                         Sue

I live in kettering but i know of none. There is one called Acorn in Burton latimer, which is listed on this site and Top Lodge Caravan Club Site which seems to be nearer stamford. the closest one we have satyed at is Greendale in Wissendine rutland which is a good 35 mins away but perhaps someone else can help you whos been to a closer one.

Good luck

Claire.

Why Kettering? Just curious, I grew up there.

There are some listed on the campsites section.I have no idea what they are like though.

Acorn Caravan Site, 49 Cranford Rd, Burton Latimer (very close to Wicksteeds)

Ringstead Grange, Ringstead, Kettering

Top Lodge Caravan Club site - this one has good reviews I think

Click on the Campsites button at the top of the page and try searching on Kettering and Corby. You could also look at Billing Aquadrome In Northampton, or Overstone Lakes (not far from Northampton).

I also live near to Kettering, (in Barton Seagrave) I have seen a site on Warkton lane, between Kettering and Warkton, but I have no idea what it is called. Cant find it in Yellow Pages, but I know its there! If I find out I will post again.

Why you coming to Kettering?

I used to live in Barton (Creighton Crescent). I remembered that site in Warkton Lane but couldn't remember the name either. Widdler who posts on UKCS is from Barton too.

I have just searched on the web, this could be it

 Hi 2 everyone who lives in Kettering!! ( I didn't realise there were so many peeps on here who lived there 2!! )..

Any way, there is a nice little site by Cranford, think it may be a CC CL site but not sure.. also Wickies sometimes let you caravan in the park if you are part of the motor show but you'll need to check..

Hi Jo123, yes thats the one Kestrel, not sure what units they take, but I think that is about the closest to Kettering.

I have lived in Barton Seagrave for about 8 years, previous to that I lived in Kettering, which is where I grew up.

We are part of the  motor show, I emailed them and you are right they will allow us to camp at the park.

Thank you all for your help

We went to Wickies yesterday and there were vans and tents pitched on what used to be the golf course. There was an American Civil War show on so I assume these were folks camping were associated with that.

 I think there is camp site at Harrinigton village not far from Kettering. There is an American Air Musuem from 2nd World War bomber base that was there.
