Holme Pierrepont Country Park

View prices & book Last booked one day ago 7.9 859 reviews

Water- and land-based event centre in 270 acres of parkland
Easy access to Nottingham city centre, rail network and airport
Country walks, nature trails and lots to do for kids

What do you reckon is the main flavour of activities at this Nottinghamshire site? Yup, top of the menu at the Holme Pierrepont Country Park, near Nottingham are all sorts of watersports: you'll be able to tackle a whitewater course for canoeing, kayaking, rafting and tubing; paddleboarding, open-top canoeing and the inflatable assault course Wipe Out. But! This is a land-based activity centre too, so if you don't fancy plunging into the foamy depths or would quite like to stay dry for a day, other options can be tackled at the outdoor adventure zone where there's an aerial adventure course, miniature golf, a mini four-wheel drive course for kids, a kids' activity club and archery combat. A large play park, country walks and nature zones are also on site (please note some activities are subject to availability and must be booked at reception; early booking is advisable). Feeling a bit faint just from reading all this and think you'd rather spectate? The centre has kindly included a country park café and a regatta lake where it hosts its own events like rowing and canoe regattas, dragonboat racing and triathlons. Lots is on offer too to keep the kids amused, including a woodland adventure playground and a nature trail a short stroll away. Although all this energetic excellence is only 10 minutes' drive from Nottingham city centre, it's well into the countryside and away from anything townie, as it's deep in the 270 acres of parkland of Holme Pierrepont Country Park. The campsite part of the park covers 18 acres and has a facilities block with showers and toilets, and a site shop selling selected groceries and camping supplies.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Nice big site. Easy instructions via email regarding codes to get in and to use toilets etc. no noise after 21:30. Nice walks nearby

Disliked: Showers and toilets we found to be a bit unclean but not the worst. The shower didn’t stay in for 2 seconds without having to push it again.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review – we're really pleased to hear that you were able to enjoy some of the great walks in the area!

We're sorry to hear that the toilet blocks didn’t quite meet your expectations. We do have several facilities on site, some with push-button systems and others with longer-lasting options. That said, we appreciate your feedback and will certainly look into the timing on the push-button showers to see if improvements can be made.

Thank you again, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!.

Kevin S. May 2025

Electric grass pitch

Liked: The site was clean & well maintained aesthetically. Staff were friendly & helpful.

Disliked: The facilities. They didn’t seem to be checked or cleaned regularly - and things that were obviously in need of attention were ignored.

Gents main toilet block - 5 stalls, only 2 with working locks. Had to rescue a child in distress who had got himself locked in a stall. No “push green button to exit” sign. Not an issue for me but again, had to let out 2 young boys distressed who didn’t know how to exit the block.
In the main block 1 shower didnt work (so I found out after undressing) and there were no mops or squeegees for cleaning up after yourself. As such the ones that did work were filthy with muck and grass. Also, no curtain so your clothes get soaked.
We had teenage children with us as a group of 3 families, yet they placed us right next to the small children play area - a joy at 7:30am! Also, sited just behind the trees as you enter so we got no sun for the whole stay and every tent and awning was covered in bird muck.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We're genuinely sorry to hear about the issues you encountered during your stay – it’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide, and we appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention.

We’re particularly concerned to hear about the condition of the gents' toilet block, including the broken locks and the incident involving a child getting stuck. That’s clearly not acceptable, and we’ll be addressing this with our maintenance team immediately. We'll also ensure that clear signage is reviewed and improved where needed to prevent any confusion in the future..

Would stay again due to the location

Liked: Good proximity to city and things to do.

Disliked: Toilets and showers were dirty and in disrepair. Some were Blocked and unworking. No hot water in showers in main block during the week, however the sink tap did have hot water. The main block of showers mysteriously opened and was working again on the Friday, for the busy bank holiday.
