  • Wild camping with perks in woodland 40 minutes’ drive from Nottingham
  • Newark-on-Trent 15 minutes’ drive; Skylarks Nature Reserve 25 minutes
  • Wood-fired hot tub, dog park and communal kitchen on site
You don’t have to be able to extricate yourself from a tortuous maze to stay at The Labyrinth Woodland. This small, remote site with grass pitches is in nine acres of woodland in the Nottinghamshire section of the Vale of Belvoir, about 40 minutes’ drive from Nottingham. This is wild camping, but with a large handful of excellent perks. Yes, the toilets are of the portable kind, but the shower (in an environmentally friendly roofless cabin in the middle of the forest) could easily be found in a glamping set-up. Then there are communal areas – from the outdoor kitchen, which has a camping gas cooker and washing-up facilities (with hot water), to the campfire area, where you can help yourself to wood that has already been chopped for you. Last but by no means least, you can have a soak in the wood-fired hot tub (for which there is an additional charge). Squirrels, rabbits, pheasants, deer and birds call these woods home, so keep your eyes peeled to see what wildlife you might spot. Your four-legged buddy should be kept on a lead at all times, but there is a private and secure dog park on site. Other good destinations for a dog-friendly walk are the banks of Kilvington Lakes (15 minutes’ walk) and the Linear Walk (15 minutes’ drive), which follows the path of a former railway line. Other local activities include fishing at Belvoir Waters or Portland Fishing Lakes (five minutes) and birdwatching at Skylarks Nature Reserve (25 minutes), an area of wetlands and grasslands.

Unpowered grass and earth caravan site (members only)

Liked One of the best sites we have stayed on to date. We liked everything about it. We stayed for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. The owner, Dave was very welcoming and made us feel at home. Nothing was too much trouble.

The site is well situated for visits to Belvoir Castle, Newark, Grantham and Nottingham, perfect for visiting Robin Hood country. We are so pleased to have discovered this little gem and will definitely visit again.

Lovely for dog walks and there are two pubs within walking distance both with lovely food menus.
We liked everything about it. There are fresh water taps situated around the site. Pitches were great, huge and plenty of space between pitches. There is a communal cooking area, and sheltered seating area, great for family gatherings.We also loved the firepits. This was our first time to The Labyrinth Woodland and we're already planning our next visit, can't wait! A really peaceful and relaxing place to visit. Highly recommended.

All you need for a chilled weekend by the campfire

Tracey S.

Unpowered grass and earth caravan site (members only)

Liked A peaceful campsite in a small glade in young woodland, mostly level with grass. Very quiet with birdsong a-plenty. Water tap (has a 1” thread for hose fittings!) is close by with the chemi-point, toilet and shower just behind. Mobile phone reception is weak (Vodafone and O2 tested) but do work if you wander around. David, the warden, is friendly and helpful and said there were two pubs nearby, though one of them isn’t dog friendly - can’t remember which one.
Would definitely come again

Bell tent (hot tub)

Liked 100% recommend visiting. This may be a new site but the owners are working so hard to make it brilliant for their guests. The bell tent was beautiful and very well equipped with absolutely everything we needed. Hot tub was great and the owners are lovely. So welcoming and helpful. Can’t wait to come back!

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked What a gem of a campsite this is. So peaceful and tranquil, I felt like I was on a retreat! Dave and Rose who own the site are such lovely people and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived on site. The pitches are fantastic in the woodland and there are some great facilities, including a communal cooking area and an outdoor shower. There are 2 good pubs nearby and some scenic walks for those who like to venture. I'm already looking forward to my next visit.

Disliked Having to leave!

Bell tent (hot tub)

Liked Fantastic hosts, David and Rose, who can't do enough for you should you need anything. You get your own private area with toilet, shower, hot tub, dining area and tent. The whole area is secure to let your dog off lead, which our Nala was in her element! Very comfy beds, cozy log burner inside which was a life saver this weekend for us with the hit and miss weather. Lovely walks through the woodland on site and even got to see some wildlife whilst there to. All you need for a chilled weekend by the campfire, would highly recommend to anyone looking for a similar getaway.

Disliked No major dislikes, we were aware before we arrived that some jobs onsite were still being done and within time the site will be even better with more working facilities.

We didn't get to use the outdoor shower with the weather being so cold, but I'm sure during the warmer months this would be a brilliant experience.

Local attractions

In Newark-on-Trent (15 minutes’ drive), you can admire the ruins of the medieval castle (where King John met his maker) from the riverside path, before continuing on to a large pointy sundial and the Newark Trent Weir. On the outskirts of town is the Newark Air Museum, with its collection of aircraft and engines. In addition to opulent rooms (such as the Elizabeth Saloon, with its gilded decoration), Belvoir Castle (15 minutes) has splendid outside areas like the Japanese gardens, dotted with colourful camellias and rhododendrons. Meanwhile, kids might enjoy a petting session at the animal park (open seasonally), with sheep and goats. Practise your best archery stance so that you can take a suitably dramatic picture next to the Robin Hood Statue when in Nottingham (40 minutes). Then climb up to Nottingham Castle, an elegant mansion built on the remains of an 11th-century fortress, or book yourself on to a cruise along the River Trent.
