Shardlow Marina Caravan Park is a friendly site holding both a static holiday park and a touring caravan park tucked away amid rural settings in the historic, canal-side village of Shardlow. The campsite enjoys a splendid location right on the banks of the gleaming river Trent and lies a stroll from both the river Derwent and the Trent and Mersey Canal. The idyllic spot once served as an essential and bustling location during days of yore when the canal serves as a necessary mode of transport. There is so much to see and do in this historic village, so bring along your walking boots and bikes for hours of peaceful ambles. Enjoy walks galore around the village and across the rolling landscape, or kick back at the base and savour the vistas with a cold beverage in hand – the choice is yours. There are heaps of information boards around the village, making it easy for visitors to get around. Those with a partiality for their tipple will be pleased to know that the village holds a whopping seven pubs, making it easy to find a place for grub and ales after a long day of exploring. Mosey back to your hardstanding or grass base at sunset, and drink in the varying shades of amber. Pets most welcome.
