Sensitive landscape design of a woodland holiday park within a natural setting

Located near Wansford in Northamptonshire, Rockingham Forest Park sits on the edge of a former WWII airfield and is surrounded by the ancient Rockingham Forest. This unique setting has been transformed into a luxury woodland holiday park through the expertise of Nicholsons’ landscape architecture team, delivering a sensitive design that harmonises with nature.

Our approach combines landscape architecture and ecological support, creating a scheme that brings people closer to nature. Wildflower planting is woven throughout the site, while a strategic tree planting plan embeds the lodges within the woodland environment.

The first phase of the project is complete and flourishing, and the second phase is now underway. This next stage will introduce further ecological enhancements, reinforcing sustainability and biodiversity at the heart of the design.
