This peaceful, well-organised site is praised for its excellent riverside location, spacious pitches and clean facilities. Many reviewers highlight the friendly, accommodating staff and the proximity to local pubs and scenic walks along the River Trent. While some mention basic facilities, they are generally considered clean and functional.

Martin H.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely walks on the riverside and an abundance of local pubs to check out.

Disliked We feel the free range birds did leave a lot.of poo around the field. Which is a shame because it is a very good site, perhaps a small sign outside to point out the setback entrance gates.

Recommend to friends Visit again

An attractive and well-maintained site near the river.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Lovely site, very well organised, I received a message with all info for a smooth arrival to the site on the day. As a family we are new to camping and thoroughly enjoyed our weekend here. My children "unplugged" and enjoyed playing family games, walks next to the canal and watching the birds roam freely. Thankyou for having us!

Local attractions

Despite the industrial past and present, Nottinghamshire has many fab natural landscapes: the wetlands at Skylarks Nature Reserve, a 20-minute drive from the site are as rich with feathered life as any you'll see on TV nature channels. For more adventurous hours, there's go-karting 15 minutes' drive away in Netherfield, and a massive array of high octane stuff (not all of it watery) at the National Watersports Centre (20 minutes' drive) including Segway rides, high ropes, wakeboarding and rafting. Then there's Sherwood Forest and Sherwood Forest Pines Park 40 minutes away… a leafy combination of legend, history, nature reserve, country park and adventure centre, with hiking and biking trails through 450 acres of ancient oaks and wildlife. Adventureseekers can see it from the treetops on ropes and wires at Go Ape, and the kids can clamber about at the award-winning natural play area Robin Hood’s Hideout. For family antics out of the forest, Sundown Adventureland (40 minutes) has rides and themed playgrounds for the under-10s; Twinlakes Park offers birds of prey shows and creepy critters along with its waterpark and rollercoaster rides, and for the real big-ride fanatics, it's an hour and a half to Alton Towers. It's half an hour to Nottingham for tours of the castle and the caves, stopping for snifters in Ye Trip To Jerusalem and ice skating at Motorpoint Arena. You could also hire bikes for a trip through Colwick Country Park (20 minutes' drive), a pleasant combo of woodlands, lakes, meadows and playgrounds where you can swim, fish, walk, sail and spot wildlife.
