When renting a campervan in South Yorkshire, consider Rotherham as your home base. Planted midway between Sheffield and Doncaster, and only an hour south of Huddersfield, Rotherham is in a prime location in northern England. There's a national park under an hour to the west, and the M1 bisects the town in half.

In the late 1700s, Rotherham was a hub for iron and steel mills. The Industrial Revolution brought a lot of business and residents to Rotherham, and it continued to grow into the 1800s. By the 20th century, the steel industry was the major contributor to Rotherham’s economy. In the 1900s, the art industry also flourished with the opening of its first cinema, electric trams, and the Rotherham Central Library and Arts Center.

Discover what Rotherham is all about. South Yorkshire County has a lot to offer, so book an RV in England today and start planning your trip.

Discover Rotherham


The Great Outdoors

The River Don runs right through Rotherham from Sheffield and flows northeast towards Doncaster, providing a basin for the steel mills. River Don wraps around Clifton Park, which is a theme park mixed with a beautiful outdoor area. Visitors can walk through the gardens where plants, flowers, and vegetables grow. Clifton Park is also a family-friendly theme park with a water splash area, a mini-golf course, and even amusement rides.

Just outside of Rotherham in Sheffield, you’ll find the Peak District National Park. At 555 square miles, Peak District National Park is home to breathtaking archaeology, ancient history, and a biodiverse variety of plants and animals. For the ultimate freedom, drive your luxury motorhome rental from Rotherham to the park. This is a great way to explore everything that the Peak District National Park has to offer. You can find a good place to park, then go for a hike or bike ride through some amazing scenic trails or go for a swim in the reservoir.

Another one of Rotherham’s biggest attractions is the Wentworth Garden Center. In addition to seeing the extraordinary gardens, visitors can experience the Aquatic Department, the Family Farm, the Garden Center, or have dinner at the restaurant on-site. Go alone or take your family to the Wentworth Garden Center in Rotherham for a memorable time.

Exploring the City

Are you into science and all the amazing things it can do? Visit the Magna Science Adventure Center in Rotherham. Bring your family to this hands-on museum that's full of experiments and exhibits for guests of any age. Housed in a former steelworks, this museum's pavilions focus on the four elements needed to forge steel: air, earth, fire, and water. See a fire tornado, create air patterns using the force of wind, extract raw materials from the earth, and play fun water games. Come prepared for a truly immersive experience (and consider bringing a change of clothes if you have a little too much fun in the Water Pavilion!).

The Clifton Park Museum is another building full of mystery and wonder. Hundreds of artifacts are on display that take you back in time to what life was like in Rotherham in centuries past. Some of the exhibitions include 18th-century military uniforms, local pottery, and antique coins. Learn all you need to know about Rotherham and the Clifton Park area here at the Clifton Park Museum.

If history is your favorite subject, consider checking out Wentworth Woodhouse. This historic home was built for the 1st Marquess of Rockingham in 1735. It became an important military base during World War II. Today, this magnificent structure is preserved by a local trust and kept open for visitors from all over the world to enjoy. Take a rooftop tour, venture through the colorful gardens, or attend one of the regular events.

When your trip starts nearing its end, make sure to eat at one of the wonderful restaurants in Rotherham. Whether you’re into Indian, traditional cafe food, or Italian, Rotherham has all that and more. Top off your tank at any of the petrol stations nearby, then hop on the M1. That can take you all the way down to London, but the next closest major city is Sheffield.
