BACK TO NATURE

Staying at a campsite in the UK gives you a great chance to get out in the fresh air and explore the beautiful surroundings. A picturesque place to do this is at one of our National Nature Reserves (NNRs), areas of land that have been set aside solely for nature.

They are dotted about all over the UK and provide a great base for getting closer to wildlife and the natural world

With 2022 marking their 70th year, we chatted to Marian Spain, Chief Executive of Natural England, to find out more about NNRs, the popular destinations to visit, the habits that motorcaravanners can adopt to help nature, the Piltdown Man hoax and more…

Tell us about the work of the NNRs and why they’re so important for wildlife!

If you want to enjoy nature in Britain, an NNR is the best place to do it – they are the Premier League of conservation.

They’re across the UK and are the best places to see nature
