  • Wild motorhome pitches by two lakes in the Nottinghamshire countryside
  • A 15-minute drive to Belvoir Castle, and 10 minutes to Newark-on-Trent
  • A short drive away from shops, pubs and stately houses
Encompassing a 232-acre site in glorious Nottinghamshire countryside, Belvoir Waters is an eco-friendly, off-grid site with one golden rule: be as environmentally thoughtful as possible. And here, you'll be staying among natural woodland, surrounded by three lakes covering 80 acres of water. This is a very peaceful place where couples and families can wander around the lakes and stroll the woodland walks, listening out for some of the 180 bird species spotted in the area. Well-behaved dogs are welcome too. You’ll need to be self-sufficient here as the site is completely off-grid, so it’s best to add in a barbecue as well as bits and bobs for cooking when you’re packing. But don’t worry too much about the packing – anything you’ve forgotten can be picked up in Newark-on-Trent (10 minutes’ drive), which has plenty of supermarkets as well as fish and chip shops or Chinese takeaways. Newark Royal Market (on Wednesdays) has been held in the market square pretty much non-stop since the 12th century, and it’s a special treat to rummage around the stalls for fresh local produce.

What customers say

Highly recommended, back-to-basics wild camping with peace, tranquillity, and vast, private pitches, often by the lake. Guests love the space, nature, wildlife, and activities like paddleboarding and fishing. Staff are friendly and helpful. Some mention limited facilities and self-sufficiency needed, but most are eager to return.

Primitive grass and earth RV campsite (lake view)

Liked Back to basics and back to nature.
Beautiful surroundings.
Quiet and peaceful.
Clean and tidy.
Lovely off road walks.
Pub nearby.
4g/5g signal good (in case you need tech).
Owner helpful and responsive.
Large pitches, well spaced, giving privacy and feeling as though you are really wild camping.
The cleanest portaloo I've ever seen!

Disliked The pitches were on very uneven ground, making walking in reduced light a little tricky. Although, overall were fairly level, we didn't need levelling ramps.
Lots of weeds on the pitch, mainly thistles.
The lake was beautiful, but quite stinky (I guess to be expected), just a warning if you take your dog, you'll need to be able to wash them off otherwise they'll pong lol.
At £30, a little pricey for a back to basics site.

Primitive grass and earth RV campsite (lake view)

Liked Peaceful tranquility. Relaxed, off-grid almost wild camping. Small number of pitches. Bird life on the lake. Great to have a fire.

Disliked It would be good if there was a water point on the site. Just as well we knew to bring our own water.
Price is more than I might have expected to pay.. but I guess the tranquility made it worth it.

From the manager: Hi there. Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully we will have water next year. Also I found you're firepit on that photo thrown in the hedge. Its here if you want to come and collect it.

Liked It's nice and quiet, with lots of different spots to stay, plenty of privacy, and lots of space for a walk with beautiful scenery. It's dog-friendly, and you can swim with boats or your own gear right on site.

Local attractions

Belvoir Castle (15 minutes’ drive) may well be your first stop. Built in the early 19th century, it has adventure playgrounds and woodland paths for kids and dogs to run around in, as well as guided tours of the 'big house'. When you’ve had your fill of history, you can replenish energy levels at the restaurants, ice-cream parlours and unusual shops at The Engine Yard retail village. Lovers of old houses might also like to glance over Elizabethan-era Wollaton Hall (40 minutes) and its manicured parkland – they do a spooky ghost tour (one way to make the kids behave) and lots of Tudor-themed events during summer. If you’d prefer to get more active on your holiday, there are plenty of cycling and walking trails – for all levels – all around the campsite. There’s also a riding school (five minutes), a couple of golf courses and a public swimming pool (all 20 minutes).
