Top 5 EV-Friendly & Eco-Conscious Caravan Parks in the UK for 2026
2026 is the year UK holiday parks finally caught up with the EV revolution. We sifted 180+ caravan parks across England, Scotland and Wales looking for genuine sustainability — not greenwashing — and a charger you can actually use without queuing.
The shortlist had to tick three real boxes: on-site EV charging (Pod Point, InstaVolt, ChargePoint or an equivalent — not just a 13A socket), verifiable green credentials (David Bellamy Conservation Award, Green Tourism gold/silver, or an equivalent third-party audit), and a holiday you'd actually want — scenery, location, character. Here are 2026's five winners.
Skelwith Fold Caravan Park
AA Platinum-rated and a David Bellamy Gold conservation award holder, Skelwith Fold sits in 130 acres of ancient Lake District woodland with red squirrels in the canopy. The owners installed 14 Pod Point chargers in 2025 (Type 2 + a single 50kW rapid), all powered by the park's own 200 kW solar array. Wastewater is recycled for landscaping, and the cafe runs on biomass. Adults-only and gloriously silent at night.
Park Foot Holiday Park
On the shore of Ullswater with its own private jetty, Park Foot pairs lakeside calm with proper EV charging — 6 destination chargers (free with stay) and a partnership with the Ullswater Steamer for boat-only days. The bedding is organic British wool, the soaps are package-free, and the park is part of the Cumbria Tourism climate-positive pledge.
Wooda Farm Holiday Park
A working Cornish family farm above Bude, Wooda is one of the rare parks that produces most of what it sells: lamb, eggs, vegetables, even the cafe's flour from the farm's own mill. Three on-site EV chargers, two new in 2026, plus a 'green pitch' option that swaps mains hook-up for solar-tile carports. Five stars from Visit England and a Green Tourism Gold award.
Loch Ness Holiday Park
A Highlands family park with 4 InstaVolt rapid chargers — handy because this is North Coast 500 country and the next charger can be 60 miles away. Renewable-electric heating throughout, electric grass mowers, and a 'pack-it-out' bin policy in the surrounding hills. Dark-sky friendly external lighting means you can see the Milky Way from your awning.
Haven Riviere Sands
A surprise inclusion — Haven Riviere Sands on Hayle's three-mile beach has quietly become Haven's flagship sustainability park. 22 Pod Point chargers across the park, a closed-loop pool heating system using waste heat from the laundry, and a Surfers Against Sewage partnership that funds local beach cleans. Big-operator scale, genuinely impressive footprint.
Our EV-friendly criteria for 2026
- Real, public chargers — minimum 4 Type 2 sockets or 2 rapid (50 kW+) units accessible to all guests, not just lodge owners.
- Third-party green certification — David Bellamy Gold, Green Tourism Gold, or Visit England Gold-Award sustainability.
- Operational footprint — renewable electricity contract, biomass/heat-pump heating, on-site recycling and demonstrable waste reduction.
- Setting — somewhere worth driving (electrically) to.
