  • 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.

What customers say

A new, tranquil woodland spot with roomy, private sites. Perfect for dog walkers & birdwatchers. Dave and Rose are super friendly hosts. Enjoy the 'off-grid' feel with great facilities like fire pits. A few minor facility hiccups, but improvements are happening. Loads want to come back!

Bell tent

Liked We had a wonderful stay at the bell tent at the campsite. The site was clean, peaceful, and very well maintained. The hot tub was spotless and a real highlight of our visit – perfect for relaxing.

The hosts were exceptionally welcoming, friendly, and always happy to help with anything we needed. Their attention to detail and hospitality made us feel right at home.

Overall, a fantastic place to stay, and we would happily return in the future. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with excellent facilities and wonderful hosts.

Liked The site is lovely and the owners are very nice.

Disliked There was an issue with water as the shower and sink area had zero running water. I know it is a new site so put this down to teething issues.
However I would still return to this very nice site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: hi and thanks for your feedback.

yes aware of showers and usage. we are waiting for signage and wasn’t aware that you wanted to use it otherwise i’d have had explained.

we have had users using it without paying but this is being addressed and apologies for any miss communication/s.

yes we are very new at this and yet up for the challenge of making all visitors enjoy their stay.

John H. 1 review

Unpowered grass and earth caravan site (members only)

Liked Fantastic new small "semi" wild camping area in a beautiful location, with large pitches. It gets the basics right with room for some improvements which are in hand. It is fantastic & secure for dogs. Very quiet and peaceful, think i woke myself up being "too" quiet. Great that it has fire pits, with wood to use and Site BBQ availible. On a clear night will be grat for Stargazing and its only a 10 min walk from site to Kilvington Lakes.

Disliked Nothing disliked, Yes its new so probably a few tweaks going forward. Spoke to Dave(owner) and he stated a few tweaks/improvements to come. The entrance key press just needs to move location slightly as a bit of a stretch to open from site side when leaving.

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.
